Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is "$500".

Explanation:

The amount of monetary damages Mary can likely recover from the manufacturer of the toaster is $500, because the disclaimer label on the toaster clearly states that, the manufacturer company is not liable for consequential damages. The damage of the electrical wiring in the kitchen refers to consequential damage because it is not the direct result of the damage of toaster but it is due to the spark in the toaster.
