In 20x1, Newman Company paid P1,000,000 to purchase land containing a total estimated 160,000 tons of extractable mineral deposits. The estimated value of the property after the mineral has been removed is P200,000. Extraction activities began in 20x2, and by the end of the year, 20,000 tons had been recovered and sold. In 20x3, geological studies indicated that the total amount of mineral deposits had been underestimated by 25.000 tons. During 20x3; 30,000 tons were extracted, and

Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Last Chance Mine (LCM) purchased a coal deposit for $750,000. It estimated it would extract 12.000 tons of coal from the deposit. LCM mined the coal and sold it, reporting gross receipts of $1 million, $3 million, and $2 million for years 1 through 3, respectively. During years 1-3, LCM reported net income (loss) from the coal deposit activity in the amount of ($20,000). $500,000, and $450,000, respectively.

12. On July 23 of the current year, Dakota Mining Company pays $7,398,720 for land estimated to contain 8,808,000 tons of recoverable ore. It installs and pays for machinery costing $968,880 on July 25. The company removes and sells 451,000 tons of ore during its first five months of operations ending on December 31. Depreciation of the machinery is in proportion to the mine's depletion as the machinery will be abandoned after the ore is mined. Required:Prepare entries to record the following.(a) The purchase of the land.(b) The cost and installation of machinery.(c) The first five months' depletion assuming the land has a net salvage value of zero after the ore is mined.(d) The first five months' depreciation on the machinery.
Intella Manufacturing, Inc. has only one plant asset used in production. The asset had a cost of $535,000 and has been depreciated for 2 full years since the date of acquisition. This accounting resulted in a total accumulated depreciation of $220,000. The firm expects the asset to be productive for an additional 3 years and projects the asset's future cash flows to be $132,000 per year. Information about the company's products indicates that the asset might be impaired. Should the firm record an impairment loss for the current year? (Provide supporting computations.) First, calculate the carrying value of the asset using the table below. Less: Carrying value of asset Part 2 Next, conduct an impairment test for the asset using the table below.
