Answer:

Option B $3240

Explanation:

The reason is that the gross profit on the sale is $54,000 ($120,000 - $66,000). This gross profit margin is 45%.

The ownership share of the inventory that is in stock of the subsidiary would be 30% and out of this 30%, the 45% profit of profit which is $3240 ($24,000 * 30% Ownership of stock * 45% Gross Profit Margin), must not be recognized in the income statement and balance sheet.
