There is not effect on gross profit

Explanation:

Gross Profit is the difference between Revenue (Sales) and Cost of goods sold (COGS), that gives us an idea of a company's efficiency at using its labor and supplies in producing goods or services.  

The difference between prices in the final inventory has to be posting in a Price difference account (PRD).  

The amount of it, in this particular case, is calculated like this: 7 * (180 – 174) = 42. This is an expense
