Step-by-step explanation:

Free on Board indicates that once the seller leaves the package next to the shipping company's boat they are no longer liable for obligations, costs, or risks involved in the delivery of the product, and that is instead all transferred to the buyer. Therefore by accepting to purchase this product as this type of shipping then the loss is suffered by Red's Roofing.
