Giles was able to make an assortment of trinkets using $20,000 worth of materials that he sold for a total of $60,000. In addition, he purchased another $170,000 worth of goods and resold them for $190,000. He pays $5,000 per year for electricity. In order to decorate his shop, he purchased $2,000 worth of memorabilia to hang on his walls using a loan from the bank that charges 10% interest. At the end of the year, he sold off the same memorabilia to another store for $1,000.
