- Sunny Company paid 4,000,000 for property containing natural resources of 2,500,000 tons of ore. The present value of the estimated cost of restoring the land after the resource is extracted is P350,000. The land will have a value of 570,000 after it is restored for suitable use. Tunnels, bunk houses, and other fixed installations are constructed at a cost of 7,000,000, and such expenditures are charged to mine improvements. Operations began on January 1, 2020, and resources removed totaled 500,000 tons. In 2021, a discovery was made indicating that available resources after 2020 will total 1,750,000 tons. At the beginning of 2021, additional bunk houses were constructed in the amount of 650,000. In 2021, only 350,000 tons were mined because of a strike. 1. What is the depletable amount? 2.
