    a) A gain will be recognized in the consolidated income statement in 2019.

    As the land is sold to a subsidiary it will be considered intra-entity thus, eliminated in the consolidated income statement of 2016

    the gain of both entities (from parent to subsidiary and to subsidiary to third party) will be recognized at 2019 when an external entity purchases the land
