Vulnerability details

Impact

Gas is overspent on access and operations.

Proof of Concept

claimablePerc is calculated in two steps, which can be made simpler.

Recommended Mitigation Steps

Now:

uint256 totalTokens = auction.commitments.mul(auction.pegPrice).div(auction.finalPrice);
uint256 claimablePerc = auction.claimableTokens.mul(auction.pegPrice).div(totalTokens);

To be (totalTokens isn't used elsewhere):

uint256 claimablePerc = auction.claimableTokens.mul(auction.finalPrice).div(auction.commitments);

Through the following symbolic replacements:

TT = (Ac * Ap) / Af
CP = (Act * Ap) / TT

CP = (Act * Ap) / (Ac * Ap) / Af
CP = (Act) / (Ac) / Af
CP = Af * Act / AC

I agree that the finding is valid and will save gas
