Question

Great Harvest Bakery purchased bread ovens from New Morning Bakery. New Morning Bakery was closing its bakery business and sold its two-year-old ovens at a discount for $700,000. Great Harvest incurred and paid freight costs of $35,000, and its employees ran special electrical connections to the ovens at a cost of $5,000. Labor costs were $37,800. Unfortunately, one of the ovens was damaged during installation, and repairs cost $5,000. Great Harvest then consumed $900 of bread dough in testing the ovens.
