On April 20, 2020, Wilhamette Incorporated purchased the right to remove timber from a 20,000-acre tract of land in Oregon over the next three years, and the company estimates no residual value. The timber is to be sold as lumber for new home construction. The cost of the timber rights was $600,000, with estimated salable timber feet of 800,000. During 2020 and 2021, Wilhamette harvested and sold 650,000 feet of timber. What is the book value of the timber rights at the end of 2021, assuming the company uses the units-of-production method?

On January 1, 2019, Blossom Corporation acquired a small mine for $20 million along with equipment costing $8 million. Management estimated at that time that the mine should produce 25,000 ounces of gold and have no residual value while the equipment would have a useful life of eight years and no residual value. In 2019 and 2020, the company produced 1,000 and 1,400 ounces of gold, respectively. The company uses the straight-line method of depreciation for its equipment, and its year end is December 31. On December 31, 2021, the company sold some equipment for a loss of $250,000. After recording the sale, the balances in the Equipment account and Accumulated Depreciation account were $6,800,000 and $1,841,667, respectively.

The carrying value of building PDU on December 31, 2020 is $800,000 and had remaining useful life of 25 years. It is the company's policy to depreciate all its buildings using the straight-line method. On January 2, 2021, Emma Company committed to a plan to sell building PDU and classified this asset as held for sale. Building PDU was priced at $850,000, which is equal to its fair market value. During 2021, the market conditions that existed at the date the building was classified initially as held for sale deteriorated because of the prevailing worldwide pandemic and as a result, the asset is not sold at the end of 2021. On the same year, the company actively solicited but did not receive any reasonable offers to purchase the building and, in response, reduced the price to $840,000. The building continues to be actively marketed at a price that is reasonable given the change in market conditions. In 2022, the market conditions deteriorate further, and the building is yet to be sold…
J. F. Manning Metal Company is considering the purchase of a new millingmachine during year 0. The machine's base price is $135,000, and it will cost another $15,000 to modify the machine for special use by the firm, resulting in a $150,000 cost base for depreciation. The machine falls into the MACRS seven-year property class. The machine will be sold after three years for $80,000 (actual dollars). Use of the machine will require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $10,000 at the beginning of the project year. The machine will have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $80,000 (today's dollars) per year in before-tax operating costs-mainly labor. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40%, and this rate is expected to remain unchanged over the project's duration. However, the company expects that the labor cost will increase at an annual rate of 5% and that the working-capital requirement will grow at an annual rate of 8% caused by inflation. The selling…

Murphy Mining Company recently purchased a quartz mine that it intends to work for the next 10 years. According to state environmental laws, Murphy must restore the mine site to its original natural prairie state after it ceases mining operations at the site. To properly account for the mine, Murphy must estimate the fair value of this asset retirement obligation. This amount will be recorded as a liability and added to the value of the mine on Murphy’s books. (You will learn more about these asset retirement obligations in Chapters 10 and 13.) There is no active market for retirement obligations such as these, but Murphy has developed the following cash flow estimates based on its prior experience in mining-site restoration. It will take 3 years to restore the mine site when mining operations cease in 10 years. Each estimated cash outflow reflects an annual payment at the end of each year of the 3-year restoration period. Restoration EstimatedCash Outflow ProbabilityAssessment…
On January 1, 2020, Brown Mining Enterprises purchased an existing coalmine. Brown expects to operate the mine for four years (i.e., until the end of 2023), after which it is legally required to dismantle the coalmine. Brown estimates that it will have to pay $500,000 to dismantle the mine and accomplish the other required asset retirement activities such as filling and restoring land etc. at the end of the mine’s life. The applicable general interest rate for Brown is 10% (considering its credit standing and the interest rates on its other borrowings). Prepare the journal entry to record the asset retirement obligation on January 1, 2020 and prepare the journal entries for depreciation and interest expense on december 31, 2020 2. Prepare journal entries for depreciation and interest expense on December 31, 2020.
