Answer:

For store A, the amount of shrinkage is $ 40,890

For store B, the amount of shrinkage is  $ 28,370

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

The amount of shrinkage = Book cost - Actual cost,

In store A,

Actual cost = $ 454,385

Book cost = $ 495,275

So, the amount of shrinkage = $ 495,275 -  $ 454,385 = $ 40,890

In store B,

Actual cost =$ 586,855

Book cost = $ 615,225

So, the amount of shrinkage = $ 615,225 -  $ 586,855 = $ 28,370
