Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the consolidated sales and cost of goods sold is shown below:

For consolidated sales

= Top reported sales + bottom reported sales + inter entity sales

= $906,000 + $319,000 - $138,000

= $1,087,000

And the cost of goods sold is

= Top reported cost of goods sold + bottom reported cost of goods sold - intra entity sales + ending gross profit unrealized

= $679,500 + $207,350 - $138,000 + $16,095

= $764,945

The ending gross profit unrealized is come from

= {1 - ($207,350 : $319,000) * $138,000} * 35%

= $16,095
