Smithson Mining operates a silver mine in Nevada. Acquisition, exploration, and development costs totaled $6.0 million. After the silver is extracted in approximately five years, Smithson is obligated to restore the land to its original condition, including constructing a wildlife preserve. The company's controller has provided the following three cash flow possibilities for the restoration costs: (1) $540,000, 30% probability; (2) $590,000, 45% probability; and (3) $690,000, 25% probability. The company's credit-adjusted, risk-free rate of interest is 8%. What is the book value of the asset retirement liability at the end of one year? Assuming that the actual restoration costs incurred after five years are $636,000, what amount of gain or loss will Smithson recognize on retirement of the liability? Note: Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers in dollars not in millions of dollars. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1,…

Problem J: On January 1, 2021, the Reddick Company purchased a mining right for P30,000,000. The mine's recoverable ore reserves are estimated to be 4,000,000 tons. Following the extraction of all ore, the company will be obligated by law to return the land to its original state. The present value of the restoration cost is P2,000,000. The company estimated that the property may be sold for P5,000,000. At a cost of P6,000,000, roads were built and other development costs were invested to aid in the extraction and transportation of the mined ore in early 2021. 200,000 tons of ore were extracted and sold in 2021. A new study conducted by a new mining engineer on December 31, 2022, revealed that 5,000,000 tons of ore were available for mining. 225,000 tons of ore were mined and sold in 2022. How much depletion expense should be recognized in 2022?
