UNREALISED PROFIT IN INVENTORIES
Where a group enterprise sells goods to another, the selling enterprise, as a separate legal enterprise, records profit made on those sales. If these goods are still held in the inventory by the buying enterprise at the year end, the profit recorded by the selling enterprise, when viewed from stand point of group as a whole, has not yet been earned, and will not be earned until the goods are eventually sold out side the group. On consolidation the unrealized profit on closing inventories will be eliminated from the group's profit, and the closing inventories of group will be recorded at cost of the group.
