Answer: B.) $20,000

Explanation:

Given the following:

Yukon inventory cost = $260,000

Amount sold to Ontario = $390,000

Amount held by Ontario = $60,000

(Amount held by Ontario : Amount sold to Ontario) * (Amount sold to Ontario - Yukon Inventory Cost)

(60,000/390,000) * (390,000 - 260,000) (0.15385) * ($130,000)

= $20,000

Therefore, The amount of intra-entity gross profit for which recognition is deferred, and should therefore be eliminated in the consolidation process at the end of 2018 is $20,000
