- q On June 30, 2024, Prego Equipment purchased a precision laser-guided steel punch that has an expected capacity of 300,000 units and no residual value. The cost of the machine was $450,000 and is to be depreciated using the units-of-production method. During the six months of 2024, 24,000 units of product were produced. At the beginning of 2025, engineers estimated that the machine can realistically be used to produce only another 230,000 units. During 2025, 70,000 units were produced.

Acquisition, exploration, and development costs totaled $5.6 million. After the silver is extracted in approximately five years, Smithson is obligated to restore the land to its original condition, including constructing a wildlife preserve. The company's controller has provided the following three cash flow possibilities for the restoration costs: (1) $500,000, 20% probability; (2) $550,000, 45% probability, and (3) $650,000, 35% probability. The company's credit-adjusted, risk-free rate of interest is 6%. What is the book value of the asset retirement liability at the end of one year?
