    zero

    Explanation:

    The sale is made downstream, from the investor company to the investee.

    Also, is important to notice Prince hasn't controlling interest, it should has a subtancial participation on Watkinds but the mayority fothe shares are from third parties.

    Therefore, there is no unrealized gross profit to defer as the sale was made between different entities.
