Responsible for paying for a Full Price Brand New Appliance to replace one that broke?

The glass stove top shattered on my oven (not debating liability / fault for that).

I notified the super, and they sent a tech to “diagnose” (i.e., determine if it seemed like reasonable wear and tear).

It’s come back that I’m on the hook for it (fine I get it). But the options presented were either the cost of repair (which is allegedly more than the price of a brand new stove) or I reimburse their purchase of a brand new stove. I can’t find a clause or anything specific in my googling that determines the extent of my financial liability. I would imagine I owe the cost of the broken stove at depreciated face value, not the cost of a brand new appliance.

Is there anywhere I can find this information, or has anyone dealt with a similar issue?
