$14,700

Explanation:

In the given question, the equipment has offered for $13,000 and sold at $19,000, and its retail value is $23,000 on August 1.  

On August 10, the equipment was sold for $14,700 and the Harvey company agreed to buy at this price.  

So, the recording of the equipment should be done based on when the seller and buyer agreed.  

The recording of the transaction should be done when both parties are mutually agreed with the price.  

Hence, the $14,700 amount should be recorded in the books and other amounts are ignored.
