    The syndicate member earns $20.

    Explanation:

    When bonds are sold directly to the public, the syndicate member earns the total takedown. Total takedown refers to the selling concession plus the additional takedown $22.00 + $20.00 = $42.00.

    In this question, it indicated that a selling group was used to find customers. This means that the syndicate member will not earn the total takedown because he has given up his selling concession of $22.00 to the selling group member, leaving the syndicate member to earn only the additional takedown of $20.
