You're thinking about this in terms of order-of-evaluation, which is
undefined. Use of time-related words like "when" and "not yet" is therefore
best avoided. 

Functionally, you are saying that the UnitPrice of LineNumber 1 has a
functional dependency on the UnitPrice of LineNumber 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc. 

You stated:

1. If the itemTypeCode of the current Item is '1' then unitPrice is netPrice
2. If the itemTypeCode of the current Item is '2' then unitPrice is sum of
all the (unitPrice/quantity) of all the child lines 3. If the itemTypeCode
of the current Item is '3' then unitPrice is Sum of unitPrice of only the
first level child elements

The above defn should be applied at all levels where unitPrice is
calculated.

That looks to me like a recursive function:

<xsl:function name="f:unitPrice" as="xs:decimal">
  <xsl:param name="item" as="element(orderline)">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="$item/itemTypeCode = 1">
      <xsl:sequence select="$item/netPrice"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:when test="$item/itemTypeCode = 2">
      <xsl:sequence select="sum(for $c in $item/child::orderline 
                                return f:unitPrice($c) * $c/quantity)"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:when test="$item/itemTypeCode = 3">
      <xsl:sequence select="??"/>
      <!-- I don't understand the difference between this and the previous
case -->
    </xsl:when>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:function>
