    Answer: $5,000, but not the goods

    Explanation: Countrywide is only responsible for transporting goods as they are a trucking company. According to the excerpt, the goods being transported were not purchased or secured for Dewey by Countrywide. Therefore, the contract entered into by both parties was that Dewey will pay Countrywide $5000 to transport the crated goods to a defined destination. Once the goods have been shipped to the agree destination, Dewey is entitled to fulfill th payment term of the contract because the source of the transported goods isn't of Countrywide Truck Inc's concern. Therefore Countrywide can recover $5000 but not the goods.
