Answer 1

If you are using Oracle 11g, then you can use the PIVOT function:

select *
from
(
  select tkey, status, 
    status as col
  from tableB b
  left join tableA a
    on a.fkey = b.fkey
) src
pivot
(
  count(status)
  for col in ('20' as Count_Status20, 
              '30' as Count_Status30,
              '40' as Count_Status40)
) piv;

If you are not using Oracle11g, then you can use an aggregate function with a CASE statement:

select tkey, 
  count(case when status = 20 then 1 else null end) as Count_Status20,
  count(case when status = 30 then 1 else null end) as Count_Status30,
  count(case when status = 40 then 1 else null end) as Count_Status40
from tableB b
left join tableA a
  on b.fkey = a.fkey
group by tkey

Answer 2

select fkey,
       sum(case when status = 20 then 1 else 0 end) as count_status20,
       sum(case when status = 30 then 1 else 0 end) as count_status30,
       sum(case when status = 40 then 1 else 0 end) as count_status40,
from your_table
group by fkey
