Solution

The correct statement regarding intra-group transactions is: "Transactions that result in profits/losses being carried in assets of the parent or subsidiary need to be eliminated."

This is because intra-group transactions can lead to artificial inflation or deflation of profits or losses within the group. By eliminating these transactions, the consolidated financial statements provide a more accurate picture of the group's overall financial performance.

The other statements are incorrect. Intra-group transactions are not eliminated because they are not recognized by the Australian Taxation Office.
