X co acquired 80% of the equity share capital in Yco on 31 July 20X6. Extracts from the two companies’ statements of profit or loss for the year ended 30 September 20X6 were as follows:
revenue X co: 3400000 Y co: 2400000
Cost of sales X co: 1500000 Y co: 1800000during the year ended 30 September 20X6, Y co sold goods for $ 5000 each month to X co., at a mark up of 25%. At the end of the year X co had 50% of these goods left in inventory.
What is the group gross profit for the year ended 30 September 20X6?
I solved the question and got the answer 1999000, but the given answer is 2001000. PUP will be added to cost of sales not deducted, is not?
