Solution

Unrealised profits on an intragroup sale of inventories in a reporting entity group arise if:

a. The sale is an upstream transaction: This refers to a transaction where a subsidiary sells goods to the parent company. If the parent company has not yet sold these goods to an outside entity, the profit from the intragroup sale is considered unrealised.

b. The sale is a downstream transaction: This refers to a transaction where the parent company sells goods to the subsidiary. If the subsidiary has not yet sold these goods to an outside entity, the profit from the intragroup sale is considered unrealised.

c. The inventories are no longer held within the group at the date of consolidation: This is incorrect. Unrealised profits only occur when the inventories are still held within the group at the date of consolidation. If the inventories have been sold to an outside entity, the profit is realised.

d. None of the above: This is incorrect. Unrealised profits can arise from both upstream and downstream transactions as long as the inventories are still held within the group at the date of consolidation.
