B = £979
Workings:
Cost per complete unit in process 2 = £22,695/5,100 = £4.45
Cost of abnormal gain units = £4.45 × 220 = £979
Scrap value of normal loss per unit = £120/100 = £1.20
Forgone scrap value of abnormal gain = £1.20 × 220 units = £264
Transfer to income statement in respect of abnormal gain = £979 – £264 = £715
