Ask the Tutor ACCA FA

Why are you attempting questions for which you do not have an answer? You should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers - they have answers and explanations.
I assume you are referring to the price at which Wallace will sell goods to Bruce in the future. If so, then there is no affect at all on the current SOPL because they haven't yet sold any.
In future years there will be an effect and I explain exactly what the effect will be in my free lectures on the consolidated SOPL. You cannot calculate the selling price because there is not enough information in the question and so I assume that for this part of the question requires a written answer (although obviously you cannot be required to give written answers in the exam).
The lectures are a complete free course for Paper FA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
