    a) $22,010

    b) $3,780

    c) $25,790

    Explanation:

    a) In calculating the value of inventory still left, the total value needs to be calculated first,

    = (80 freezers * $540) + $820 (transport fees)

    = 43,200 + 820

    = $44,020

    40 out of 80 freezers have not been sold so,

    = 40/80 * 44,020

    = $22,010

    b) In calculating the profit, subtract the expenses from the sales

    Sales = 40 * 700

    = $28,000

    = 28,000 - Cost of refrigerators - commission of 6% of sales - advertising - installation

    = 28,000 - 22,010 - (28,000*0.06) - 180 - 350

    = $3,780

    c) The amount remitted by the consignor will be,

    = Sales - commission - advertising - installation

    = 28,000 - (28,000 * 0.06) - 180 - 350

    = $25,790
