Here is my Solution, am I any closer to what Dave is asking for ?

let product = {
  name: 'camera', 
  inventory: 5,
  unit_price: 690.99,

};

function addInventory(product , Add){
  add = parseInt(Add);
  product.inventory += add;
  console.log(add + " " +product.name + "s added to the inventory." );
  console.log(product.inventory +" "+ product.name + "s in the stock.");
}

addInventory(product,6);

function processSale(prod,Sold){
  sold = parseInt(Sold);
  prod.inventory -= sold;
  console.log(sold +" "+ prod.name +" sold");

  return sold * prod.unit_price;
}

console.log("Total Sale:  " + processSale(product,2));

What is it that "Dave is asking for"?
Please provide a link to the course page, and if it's a video also give an approximate time index. :wink:

It looks like you're referring to this video, and it has code in the "Teacher's Notes" that you can use to compare with your own.

At first glance, it looks like the main difference is that your functions perform "parseInt"s to convert strings into numbers, but that's not asked for in the instructions, and it's not the way they are used in the examples.
