The depletion base is the asset that is to be depleted. Depletion base refers to | ||||
the total cost associated with assets that are a natural resource too. | ||||
Depletion Base = Cost to Acquire + Cost to Explore + Cost to Develop | ||||
Calculation of Depletion base in the given case | ||||
Depletion base is | $500,000 | |||
The formula for the unit depletion rate is: | ||||
(Depletion base - Salvage value) ÷ Total units to be recovered | ||||
In the given case, using the above formula the cost per ton of gravel | ||||
for the first year can be calculated. | ||||
Depletion Base | 500000 | |||
Salvage Value | 50000 | |||
Total Tons that can be removed | 500000 | |||
Cost per ton of gravel | (500000-50000)/500000 | |||
$0.9 per ton of gravel for the first year. | ||||

3. Intangible Assets a. Depletion Baker purchased a gravel field for $500,000. It should produce gravel for 8 years and then have a salvage value of $50,000. The DNR requires that the land be restored so that it can be used as a park. The anticipated restoration cost is $75,000. Money would be set aside for this purpose and would earn a 4% annual return. Calculate the depletion base 500,000 + 75,000 = (575,000 At the end of the first...
