subordinated to the notes payable. The firm was unable to reorganize under Chapter 11; therefore, it was
liquidated under Chapter 7. The trustee, whose legal and administrative fees amounted to $750,000, sold
off the assets and received the following proceeds (in thousands of dollars):
ASSET PROCEEDS
Plant $7,000
Equipment $4,500
Cash $20
