Answer: c. $1,422,000

Explanation:

The Cost of Goods that goes into the Consolidated income statement would be the goods that were sold to unaffiliated companies. The original cost of production would apply:

= Quantity sold to unaffiliated companies in 20X8 * Cost for Pepper

= 18,000 * 79

= $1,422,000
