At the end of the first quarter of operations, Reed is feeling pretty good about his early results. The first harvest was a success; 500 bushels of grapes were harvested with a value of €50,000 (based on current local commodity prices at the time of harvest). And, given the strong yield from area vineyards during this season, the net realizable value of Reed’s vineyard has increased by €25,000 at the end of the quarter. After storing the grapes for a short period of time, Reed was able to sell the entire harvest for €60,000.
