During the year ended 30 June 20X5, Gem Stone Ltd acquired two areas of interest Site A and Site B. The exploration and evaluation activities at Site A amounted to $64454401. The costs relate to the acquisition of rights to explore the area, geological and geophysical studies as well as exploratory drilling and sampling. The exploration and evaluation activities at Site B amounted to $11438859. In the year ending 30 June 20X6, oil was discovered at Site A. It is estimated that Site A has 4823866 barrels of oil. As a result, Gem Stone Ltd erected an oil rig at Site A on 1 July 20X6. The cost of the oil rig amounted to $15716713. The oil rig commenced production on 1 July 20X6. At the end of the production at Site A, Gem Stone is required to dismantle the oil rig, remove it and return the site to its original condition. After consulting with its own engineers and environmentalists, Diamond estimates that the present value of the removal and restoration costs relating to the development…
Last Chance Mine (LCM) purchased a coal deposit for $1,654,350. It estimated it would extract 13,450 tons of coal from the deposit. LCM mined the coal and sold it, reporting gross receipts of $1.35 million, $6.25 million, and $5.2 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 ($16,400), $705,000, and $577,500, respectively. In years 1–3, LCM extracted 14,450 tons of coal as follows: (1) Tons of Coal (2) Basis Depletion (2)/(1) Rate Tons Extracted per Year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 13,450 $1,654,350 $123.00 2,550 7,450 4,450 b. What is LCM's percentage depletion for each year (the applicable percentage for coal is 10 percent)?
In 1990, Sunland Company completed the construction of a building at a cost of $880,000 and first occupied it in January 1991. It was estimated that the building would have a useful life of 40 years and a salvage value of $26,000 at the end of that time. Early in 2001, an addition to the building was constructed at a cost of $220,000. At that time, it was estimated that the remaining life of the building would be, as originally estimated, an additional 30 years, and that the addition would have a life of 30 years and a salvage value of $9,000. In 2019, it is determined that the probable life of the building and addition will extend to the end of 2050, or 20 years beyond the original estimate. Using the straight-line method, compute the annual depreciation that would have been charged each year from 1991 through 2000. Annual depreciation from 1991 through 2000 Compute the annual depreciation that would have been charged from 2001 through 2018. Annual depreciation from…
ABC Company finds its records are incomplete concerning a piece of equipment used in its plant. According to the company records, the equipment has an estimated useful life of 10 years and an estimated salvage value of Php24,000. It has recorded Php12,000 in depreciation each year using the straight-line method. If the accumulated depreciation account shows a balance of Php72,000, what is the original cost of the equipment and how many years remain to be depreciated?
In January, 2004, Nixon Corporation purchased a mineral mine for P6,800,000 with removable ore estimated by geological surveys at 2,000,000 tons. The property has an estimated value of P400,000 after the ore has been extracted. The company incurred P2,000,000 of development costs preparing the mine for production. During 2004, 500,000 tons were removed and 400,000 tons were sold. What is the amount of depletion that Nixon should expense for 2004? P1,280,000 OP2,240,000 P1,680,000 OP1,600,000
On January 1,2015, GOGO Company purchased land with valuable natural ore deposits for $20,000,000. At that time, the estimated recoverable output from the mine is $4,000,000 metric tons of ore after which the land is expected to have residual value of $3,000,000. To facilitate the extraction and transportation of the ore, roads were constructed amounting to $1,500,000. In 2015, 2,000,000 metric tons were mined. At the end of 2016, a new estimate of remaining recoverable ore indicated 2,500,000 metric tons are available. During 2016, 1,500,000 metric tons were mined. How much is the depletion expense for the year 2016?
In January, 2021, Melon Corporation purchased a mineral mine for $3,400,000 with removable ore estimated by geological surveys at 2,000,000 tons.

In 1993, Windsor Company completed the construction of a building at a cost of $2,160,000 and first occupied it in January 1994. It was estimated that the building will have a useful life of 40 years and a salvage value of $65,600 at the end of that time.

During the reporting period ending 30 June 2014, Sara Limited erected an oil rig in Noosa River. The cost of the rig and associated technology amounted to $99 000 000. The oil rig commenced production on 1 July 2014. At the end of the rig’s useful life, which is expected to be five (5) years, Sara Limited is required by its resource consent to dismantle the oil rig, remove it, and return the site to its original condition. After consulting its own engineers and environmentalists, Sara Limited estimates that if such work was required to be done at the present time it would cost $14 999 995. If we accept that the rate on 5-year government bonds reflects the relevant time value of money, and if the rate is 4 per cent annually, calculate the present value of the restoration provision which would be today.
