Answer:

Journal entry to record depletion expense

Depreciation expense $280,000 (debit)

Accumulated depreciation $280,000 (credit)

Explanation:

The coal mine is an economic resource controlled (ownership of risks and benefits) by Last year, Mountain Top, Inc as a result of past event (purchase transaction) from which economic benefits are expected to flow into the business (cash from sale of minerals).Therefore the coal mine is an asset!

The asset is being depleted as it is being used. This is called depreciation.

Depreciation expense in this case is calculated as :

Depreciable Account × Current harvest as a percentage of total estimated tons available

(900000-100000)× 70000/200000 = $280,000

Since discs are used for optical storage, which allows data storage and data retrieval are very good to store information for presentation.

However, discs can be unreliable likewise the internet. As a disc is a computer hardware, it can be attacked by a computer virus thereby affecting the stored data, and the internet speed also varies across locations, all these can cause distractions in the middle of a presentation especially if one needs the disc and the internet to be able to render a presentation efficiently.
