Problem 2
On March 1, 2024, ABC’s home office established the Caloocan and Manila branches. The
home office transferred P5,600,000 cash and merchandise costing P12,000,000 to its Caloocan
branch. The home office bills merchandise shipments to branches at 110% of cost. On March
15, the home office instructed the Caloocan to transfer sixty percent of the merchandise and
cash received to the Manila branch. In addition, on June 6, 2024, the Caloocan branch received
shipments from the home office billed at P8,800,000. The freight amounting to P455,000 was
paid by the branch. Seventy percent of the shipments were sold by the Caloocan branch to its
own customers. On August 27, 2024, upon instruction from the home office, the Caloocan
branch transferred forty percent of the remaining immediate prior month shipments from the
home office to the Manila branch. The receiving branch paid additional freight of P105,000. Had
the merchandise been shipped from ABC directly to the Manila branch, only P133,000 freight
would have been incurred.
