In January, 2007, valuable sulphur deposits were discovered on adjoining property and Morton Company immediately began explorations on its property. In December, 2007, after incurring P400,000 in exploration costs, which were accumulated in an expense account, Morton discovered sulphur deposits appraised at P2,250,000 more than the value of the land. To record the discovery of the deposits, Morton should O debit P2,250,000 to an asset account O debit P400,000 to an asset account O debit P2,650,000 to asset account O make no entry O Answer not given

On January 1, 2014, Klinefelter Company purchased a building for 520,000. The building had an estimated life of 20 years and an estimated residual value of 20,000. The company has been depreciating the building using straight-line depreciation. At the beginning of 2020, the following independent situations occur: a. The company estimates that the building has a remaining life of 10 years (for a total of 16 years). b. The company changes to the sum-of-the-years-digits method. c. The company discovers that it had ignored the estimated residual value in the computation of the annual depreciation each year. Required: For each of the independent situations, prepare all journal entries related to the building for 2020. Ignore income taxes.
Dunedin Drilling Company recently acquired a new machine at a cost of 350,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of four years or 100,000 hours, and a salvage value of 30,000. This machine will be used 30,000 hours during Year 1, 20,000 hours in Year 2, 40,000 hours in Year 3, and 10,000 hours in Year 4. With DEPREC5 still on the screen, click the Chart sheet tab. This chart shows the accumulated depreciation under all three depreciation methods. Identify below the depreciation method that each represents. Series 1 _____________________ Series 2 _____________________ Series 3 _____________________ When the assignment is complete, close the file without saving it again. Worksheet. The problem thus far has assumed that assets are depreciated a full year in the year acquired. Normally, depreciation begins in the month acquired. For example, an asset acquired at the beginning of April is depreciated for only nine months in the year of acquisition. Modify the DEPREC2 worksheet to include the month of acquisition as an additional item of input. To demonstrate proper handling of this factor on the depreciation schedule, modify the formulas for the first two years. Some of the formulas may not actually need to be revised. Do not modify the formulas for Years 3 through 8 and ignore the numbers shown in those years. Some will be incorrect as will be some of the totals. Preview the printout to make sure that the worksheet will print neatly on one page, and then print the worksheet. Save the completed file as DEPRECT. Hint: Insert the month in row 6 of the Data Section specifying the month by a number (e.g., April is the fourth month of the year). Redo the formulas for Years 1 and 2. For the units of production method, assume no change in the estimated hours for both years. Chart. Using the DEPREC5 file, prepare a line chart or XY chart that plots annual depreciation expense under all three depreciation methods. No Chart Data Table is needed; use the range B29 to E36 on the worksheet as a basis for preparing the chart if you prepare an XY chart. Use C29 to E36 if you prepare a line chart. Enter your name somewhere on the chart. Save the file again as DEPREC5. Print the chart.

In 2017, Bodino Company paid P 4,000,000 to purchase land containing a total estimated 160,000 of extractable mineral deposits. The estimated value of the property after the mineral has been removed is P 800,000. Extraction activities began in 2018 and by the end of the year, 20,000 tons had been recovered and sold. In 2014, geological studies indicated that the total amount of mineral deposits had been underestimated by 60,000 tons. During 2019, 30,000tons were extracted, and 28,000 tons were sold.

During 2015, Sheridan Company purchased a building site for its proposed research and development laboratory at a cost of $59,000. Construction of the building was started in 2015. The building was completed on December 31, 2016, at a cost of $400,000 and was placed in service on January 2, 2017. The estimated useful life of the building for depreciation purposes was 20 years. The straight-line method of depreciation was to be employed, and there was no estimated residual value.Management estimates that about 50% of the projects of the research and development group will result in long-term benefits (i.e., at least 10 years) to the corporation. The remaining projects either benefit the current period or are abandoned before completion. A summary of the number of projects and the direct costs incurred in conjunction with the research and development activities for 2017 appears below.

On January 1, 2016, Manika Company purchased land with valuable natural ore deposits for P10,000,000. The residual value of the land was P2,000,000. At the time of purchase, a geological survey estimated a recoverable output of 4,000,000 tons. Early in 2016, roads were constructed on the land to aid in the extraction and transportation of the mined ore at a cost of P1,600,000. In 2016, 500,000 tons were mined and sold. A new survey at the end of 2017 estimated 4,200,000 tons of ore available for mining. In 2017, 800,000 tons were mined and sold. (a) What amount should be recognized as depletion for 2016 and 2017?
