Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The intra-entity gross profit to be recognized in 2021 is calculated based on the unsold inventory at year-end. The gross profit percentage for 2021 is ($700,000 - $520,000) / $700,000 = 25.71%. Savannah still owns 15% of the goods, so the intra-entity gross profit is 15% of $700,000 * 25.71% = $16,000.
