Homework Answers
Solution
Loadstone Mining Company
Calculation of depletion:
For Year 2018
Depletion expense = cost x (tons extracted/estimated tons)
Cost = $4,750,000
Estimated tons = 950,000 tons of mine
Mine extracted = 245,000 tons
Depletion = 245,000 x (4,750,000/950,000)
Depletion expense, 2018 = $1,225,000
