A company paid $2,000,000 in year 1 for the mining site and spent an additional $500,000 to prepare the mine for extraction of the copper. After the copper is extracted in approximately. four years, the company is required to restore the land to its original condition, including repaving of roads and replacing a greenbelt. The company has provided the following three cash flow possibilities for the restoration costs: Cost Probability 1 $200,000 20% 2 500,000 45% 3 800,000 35% To aid extraction, Falcon purchased some new equipment on July 1, year 1, for $150,000. After the copper is removed from this mine, the equipment will be sold. The credit-adjusted, risk-free rate of interest is 10%. PV factor (n=4, 1-10%) is .68301. Required: What is the Accretion Expense in year 1? (Round to nearest dollar)

Underwoods Miners recently purchased the rights to a diamond mine. It is estimated that there are two million tons of ore within the mine. Underwoods paid $46,000,000 for the rights and expects to harvest the ore over the next fifteen years. The following is the expected extraction for the next five years. Year 1: 50,000 tons Year 2: 900,000 tons Year 3: 400,000 tons Year 4: 210,000 tons Year 5: 150,000 tons Calculate the depletion expense for the next five years and create the journal entry for year one.
Dunedin Drilling Company recently acquired a new machine at a cost of 350,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of four years or 100,000 hours, and a salvage value of 30,000. This machine will be used 30,000 hours during Year 1, 20,000 hours in Year 2, 40,000 hours in Year 3, and 10,000 hours in Year 4. With DEPREC5 still on the screen, click the Chart sheet tab. This chart shows the accumulated depreciation under all three depreciation methods. Identify below the depreciation method that each represents. Series 1 _____________________ Series 2 _____________________ Series 3 _____________________ When the assignment is complete, close the file without saving it again. Worksheet. The problem thus far has assumed that assets are depreciated a full year in the year acquired. Normally, depreciation begins in the month acquired. For example, an asset acquired at the beginning of April is depreciated for only nine months in the year of acquisition. Modify the DEPREC2 worksheet to include the month of acquisition as an additional item of input. To demonstrate proper handling of this factor on the depreciation schedule, modify the formulas for the first two years. Some of the formulas may not actually need to be revised. Do not modify the formulas for Years 3 through 8 and ignore the numbers shown in those years. Some will be incorrect as will be some of the totals. Preview the printout to make sure that the worksheet will print neatly on one page, and then print the worksheet. Save the completed file as DEPRECT. Hint: Insert the month in row 6 of the Data Section specifying the month by a number (e.g., April is the fourth month of the year). Redo the formulas for Years 1 and 2. For the units of production method, assume no change in the estimated hours for both years. Chart. Using the DEPREC5 file, prepare a line chart or XY chart that plots annual depreciation expense under all three depreciation methods. No Chart Data Table is needed; use the range B29 to E36 on the worksheet as a basis for preparing the chart if you prepare an XY chart. Use C29 to E36 if you prepare a line chart. Enter your name somewhere on the chart. Save the file again as DEPREC5. Print the chart.
Dunedin Drilling Company recently acquired a new machine at a cost of 350,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of four years or 100,000 hours, and a salvage value of 30,000. This machine will be used 30,000 hours during Year 1, 20,000 hours in Year 2, 40,000 hours in Year 3, and 10,000 hours in Year 4. Dunedin buys equipment frequently and wants to print a depreciation schedule for each assets life. Review the worksheet called DEPREC that follows these requirements. Since some assets acquired are depreciated by straight-line, others by units of production, and others by double-declining balance, DEPREC shows all three methods. You are to use this worksheet to prepare depreciation schedules for the new machine.
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $25,000. The truck has a salvage value of $6,000 and is expected to be driven for 125,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method, and in year one the company expects the truck to be driven for 26,000 miles; in year two, 30,000 miles; and in year three, 40,000 miles. Consider how the purchase of the truck will impact Montellos depreciation expense each year and what the trucks book value will be each year after depreciation expense is recorded.
Montello Inc. purchases a delivery truck for $15,000. The truck has a salvage value of $3,000 and is expected to be driven for 120,000 miles. Montello uses the units-of-production depreciation method and in year one it expects to use the truck for 23,000 miles. Calculate the annual depreciation expense.
2. Cooler Company acquired a tract of land containing an extractable natural resource. Cooler is required by the purchase contract to restore the land to a condition suitable for recreational use after it has extracted the natural resource. Geological surveys estimate that the recoverable reserves will be 5,000,000 tons and that the land will have of P1,000,000 after restoration. Relevant cost information as follows:Land P 9,000,000Estimated restoration costs 1,500,000If Cooler maintains no inventories of extracted material, what should be the depletion expense per ton of extracted material?
