In June 2012, GPS purchased an office building and the underlying land for a cash price of $1,955,000. The building is large enough to combine the staff of GPS into one facility, and the purchase eliminated the need for leased office space in Connecticut. Depreciation expense amounts related to continuing operations for property and equipment were $549,000, $522,000 and $455,000 for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The costs of maintenance and repairs related to continuing operations were $250,000, $325,000 and $295,000 for the years ended January 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
