Answer: Consolidated sales = $1,000,000

Cost of goods sold = $690,000

Explanation:

Given :

Top company:

Sales = $800,000

Cost of goods sold = $600,000

Bottom Company:

Sales = $300,000

Cost of goods sold = $180,000

⇒ Top sold merchandise to Bottom for $100,000

∴ We'll compute the cost of goods sold as:

Cost of goods sold = (Parent balance + Subsidiary balance) - Intra - Entity transfer - Unrealized gross profit

∵ Unrealized gross profit = Inventory of Bottom × gross profit of Top

Unrealized gross profit [tex]= (0.40 \times 10000) \times (\frac{800000 - 600000}{800000}) \\= 10000[/tex]

⇒ Cost of goods sold = $600000 + $180000 - $100000 + $10000

⇒ Cost of goods sold = $690000

Now, We'll compute the consolidated sales:

Consolidated Sales = (Parent balance + Subsidiary balance) - Intra - Entity transfer

Consolidated Sales = $800000 + $300000 - $100000

Consolidated Sales = $1,000,000
