Correct answer: C) $6,020,000
Explanation
Consolidated profit = $5,000,000 - intra-group dividend $400,000 + $2,000,000 - unrealised profit $60,000 - extra depreciation $50,000 - impairment $100,000 = $6,390,000. NCI = 20% x ($2,000,000 - $50,000 - $100,000) = $370,000. The unrealised profit is not charged to NCI because the parent was the seller. Owners of the parent = $6,390,000 - $370,000 = $6,020,000.
