Howard's freight forwarding company charges $14 for every crystal bowl delivered on time and $11 for every crystal bowl delivered late. In the month of January, Howard's freight forwarding company collected $2398. For every 16 crystal bowls delivered, 14 were delivered on time and 2 were delivered late.

1. What was the total number of crystal bowls delivered on time?
2. How much less money did Howard's freight forwarding company collect in January due to the late deliveries of the crystal bowls?

	On time	Late	Total
Number	14 u	2 u
Value	14	11
Total Value	196 u	22 u	218 u

(a)
Total amount collected in January
= 196 u + 22 u
= 218 u

218 u = 2398

1 u = 2398 ÷ 218 = 11

Total number of crystal bowls delivered on time
= 14 u
= 14 x 11
= 154

(b)
Amount that Howard's freight forwarding company collected less from each late delivery of crystal bowls
= 14 - 11
= $3

Number of crystal bowls delivered late
= 2 u 
= 2 x 11
= 22

Amount that Howard's freight forwarding company collected less from all the late deliveries of crystal bowls 
= 22 x 3
= $66

Answer(s): (a) 154; (b) $66
