Question

Login oe Register Manhein Question 6 (of 8) 10.00 points In 2016, the Marion Company purchased land containing a mineral mine for $1,850,000. Additional costs of $745,000 were incurred to develop the mine. Geologists estimated that 450,000 tons of ore would be extracted. After the ore is removed, the land will have a resale value of $120,000 To aid in the extraction, Marion built various structures and small storage buildings on the site at a cost of $180,000. These structures have a useful life of 10 years. The structures cannot be moved after the ore has been removed and will be left at the site. In addition, new equipment costing $111,000 was purchased and installed at the site. Marion does not plan to move the equipment to another site, but estimates that it can be sold at auction for $3,000 after the mining project is completed. In 2016, 55,000 tons of ore were extracted and sold. In 2017, the estimate of total tons of ore in the mine was revised from 450,000 to 537,500. During 2017, 85,000 tons were extracted, of which 65.000 tons were sold Required: 1. Compute depletion and depreciation of the mine and the mining facilities and equipment for 2016 and 2017. Marion uses the units-of-production method to determine depreciation on mining facilities and equipment.

Explanation / Answer

Purchase price                                    $1,850,000

              Development costs                   745,000

                                                           $2,595,000

     Depletion:

                                      $2,595,000 - 120,000

     Depletion per ton =                                     = $5.50 per ton

                                              450,000 tons

     2011 depletion     = $5.50 x 55,000 tons = $302,500

     2012 depletion:

     Revised depletion rate =        ($2,595,000 - 302,500) - 120,000

                                                                                                      = $4.50

                                                        537,500 - 55,000 tons

(note I have rounded the rate to two units so answer may differ slightly , if rounding is not required simply multiply the answer with 85,000 tons without rounding

In that case 4.502590673*85,000 = 382,720 will be the answer, apply same rule for rest of the calculations for year 2012)

     2012 depletion     = $4.50 x 85,000 tons = $382,500

     Depreciation:

     Structures:

                                                  $180,000

     Depreciation per ton =                            = $.40 per ton

                                               450,000 tons

     2011 depreciation      = $.40 x   55,000 tons = $22,000

     2012 depreciation:

     Revised depreciation rate =        $180,000 – 22,000

                                                                                       = $.33

                                                     537,500 - 55,000 tons

     2012 depreciation    = $.33   x   85,000 tons = $28,050

     Equipment:

                                                   $111,000 - 3,000

     Depreciation per ton =                                      = $.24 per ton

                                                     450,000 tons

     2011 depreciation     = $.24   x   55,000 tons = $13,200

     2012 depreciation:

     Revised depreciation rate =      ($111,000 – 13,200) - 3,000

                                                                                            = $.196

                                                        537,500 - 55,000 tons

     2012 depreciation   = $.196 x   85,000 tons = $16,660
