Answer:

$175,000

Explanation:

Depletion per Unit =$3500000 / 500000 = $7 per unit

25,000 units were sold during the year.

There are two ways of figuring depletion on mineral property.

1. Cost Depletion

2. Percentage Depletion

Generally, we must use the method that gives you the larger deduction.

Calculation of Cost Depletion:

Cost Depletion = Units Sold * Depletion Rate = 25,000 units * $7 per unit = 175,000

Calculation of Percentage Depletion:

Percentage Depletion = Gross Income from Property During the Year * Depletion Rate = 800,000 * 22% = 176,000

Percentage Depletion cannot be more than 50% of net taxable income from the property.

Percentage Limit = (Sales - Expenses ) * 50% = (800,000 - 500,000) * 50% = 300000*50% = 150,000

Thus Percentage Depletion is limited to $150,000

Thus, the deduction is $175,000 (Higher to Cost or Percentage Depletion)

Extrinsic motivation

 Extrinsic motivation is defined as behavior that is motivated by external factors outside an individual such as rewards, fame, attention or praise. Therefore, if Jack’s motivation for successfully completing a project is a salary raise and more, he is externally motivated. He is motivated to do well largely by the external factor, money, rather than intrinsic factors such as a sense of achievement and pride.
