Answer:

The amount of intra-entity gross profit in inventory at December 31 that should be eliminated in the consolidation process is $38,400

Explanation:

The computation of the eliminated amount in the consolidation process is shown below:

= Merchandise sold × remaining percentage × Carl percentage

= $240,000 × 40% × 40%

= $38,400

We simply do the percentage of the remaining inventory and Carl percentage to the sold merchandise

The James percentage should not be considered for the computation part. Hence, we ignored it
