    The profit on the sale is £900,000. One third of that remains unrealised as it hasn't been sold outside the group. Therefore £990k / 3 = £300k, dr parent retained earnings, cr sub inventory.

    There have been errors found in the past in Green Light answers. What does it say the correct answer is?
