Howton Paper Company purchased $1,400,000 of timberland in 2021 for its paper operations. Howton estimates that there are 10,000 hectares of timberland and it cut 2,000 hectares in 2022. The land is expected to have a residual value of $200,000 once all the timber is cut. Which of the following is true with regard to depletion?
a.Depletion will cause Howton's timber inventory to increase.
b.Howton will record depletion expense of $280,000 in 2022.
c.Howton's depletion rate is $140 per hectare of timber.
d.Howton should deplete the timber at a rate of 20% (2,000 hectares + 10,000 hectares) per year.
At the beginning of 2024, Terra Lumber Company purchased a timber tract from Boise Cantor for $3,160,000. After the timber is cleared, the land will have a residual value of $780,000. Roads to enable logging operations were constructed and completed on March 30, 2024. The cost of the roads, which have no residual value and no alternative use after the tract is cleared, was $238,000. During 2024, Terra logged 680,000 of the estimated 6.8 million board feet of timber.
Required:
Calculate the 2024 depletion of the timber tract and depreciation of the logging roads, assuming the units-of-production method is used for both assets.
At the beginning of 2018, Terra Lumber Company purchased a timber tract from Boise Cantor for $3,200,000.After the timber is cleared, the land will have a residual value of $600,000. Roads to enable logging operationswere constructed and completed on March 30, 2018. The cost of the roads, which have no residual value and noalternative use after the tract is cleared, was $240,000. During 2018, Terra logged 500,000 of the estimated fivemillion board feet of timber.Required:Calculate the 2018 depletion of the timber tract and depreciation of the logging roads assuming the units-of-production method is used for both assets.
