-          Equipment that was purchased for $250,000 and depreciated over the years such that the current adjusted basis is $190,000.  The fair market value of the equipment is $260,000,

-          Inventory that cost $50,000 has a value of $80,000, and

-          Non-depreciable equipment that was purchased for $110,000 and has a fair market value of $165,000.
