(Learning Objective 5: Record natural resource assets and depletion) MineralMines paid $425,000 for the right to extract ore from a 250,000-ton mineral deposit. In additionto the purchase price, Mineral Mines paid a $110 filing fee to the country recorder, a $2,000license fee to the state of Colorado, and $55,390 for a geologic survey. Because the companypurchased the rights to the minerals only, it expects this mineral rights asset to have a residualvalue of zero when it is fully depleted. During the first year of production, Mineral Minesremoved 35,000 tons of ore, of which it sold 29,000 tons. Make journal entries to record (a)purchase of the mineral rights, (b) payment of fees and other costs, (c) depletion for first-yearproduction, and (d) cost of the ore sold. Round depletion per unit to the closest cent
(Learning Objective 5: Record natural resource assets and depletion) BearcreekMines paid $433,000 for the right to extract ore from a 450,000-ton mineral deposit. In addition to the purchase price, Bearcreek Mines paid a $155 filing fee to the county recorder, a$2,800 license fee to the state of Utah, and $95,045 for a geologic survey. Because the companypurchased the rights to the minerals only, it expects this mineral rights asset to have a residualvalue of zero when it is fully depleted. During the first year of production, Bearcreek Minesremoved 75,000 tons of ore, of which it sold 72,000 tons. Make journal entries to record (a)purchase of the mineral rights, (b) payment of fees and other costs, (c) depletion for first-yearproduction, and (d) cost of the ore sold. Round depletion per unit to the closest cent.
Last Chance Mine (LCM) purchased a coal deposit for $750,000. It estimated it would extract 12,000 tons of coal from the deposit. LCM mined the coal and sold it, reporting gross receipts of $1 million, $3 million, and $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 ($20,000), $500,000, and $450,000, respectively. In years 1–3, LCM extracted 13,000 tons of coal as follows: (Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable. Enter your answers in dollars and not in millions of dollars.)
