Hi Bette_Jo, I have someone pulling the information on the volume shipped through the different streams. They anticipate it will be done later today. We are working on a diagram on the flow of products by volume percentage through the entire system. In this way, the flow of products in the province can be visualized. The inventory will not be sold back to the suppliers rather it is returned them. at cost. Therefore there is no gain on the transaction just a cash flow impact to the LDB. Once it is returned at cost to the supplier ( on paper) the inventory will now be in the warehouse on consignment. So, the LDB's transaction would be to remove the inventory and liability from its books. If the liability is less than the cost of the inventory there will be a receivable from the supplier and it will be offset against future payments to the suppliers. Hope this helps. Roger
