Answer:

$63,000

Explanation:

At a Price of $35, LC Delivery have sold their 1,800 shares. So, D and E are out.

But at a Price of $35 there is a demand of 2,300 shares. So, by using Dutch auction method LC Delivery can allocate their 1,800 shares among the first 3 bidders as follows:

= 1800 / 2300

= 0.7826

or

78.26%

So, in this case all the bidders A, B and C gets 78.26% shares for what they bid for as follows:

78.26% of 600 shares at $35 per share = $16,450

78.26% of 800 shares at $35 per share = $21,910

78.26% of 900 shares at $35 per share = $24,640

So, LC Delivery will receive in total $63,000 by selling 1,800 shares.
