Problem 30-14 (IAA)
Siargao Company acquired a mineral right for P30,000,000 in
January 2022. The mine had a recoverable ore estimated at
4,000,000 tons.
After it has extracted all the ore, the entity is required by law
to restore the land to the original condition at a discounted
amount of P2,000,000. The entity believed that the property
can be sold afterwards for P5,000,000.
Early in 2022, roads were constructed and other development
costs were incurred to aid in the extraction and transportation
of the mined ore at a cost of P6,000,000. In 2022, 200,000 tons of
ore were mined and sold.
On December 31, 2023 a new survey made by a new mining
engineer indicated that 5,000,000 tons of ore were available for
mining. In 2023, 225,000 tons of ore were extracted and sold.
