After reading again the post

$this->find('all', array(
        'contain' => array(
                'Department', 'Sale' => 'Shift(closed)'),
        'fields' => array('Log.cost')
        ),
);

Hope this works, I did not catch all relations at first glance, you
might also use the containable behaviors in the Sale / Departement
model ..
