Miller Mining, a calendar-year corporation, purchased the rights to a copper mine on July 1, Year 1. Of the total purchase price

, $2.8 million was appropriately allocable to the copper. Estimated reserves were 800,000 tons of copper. Miller expects to extract and sell 10,000 tons of copper per month. Production began immediately. The selling price is $25 per ton. Miller uses percentage depletion (15%) for tax purposes. To aid production, Miller also purchased some new equipment on July 1, Year 1. The equipment cost $76,000 and had an estimated useful life of 8 years. After all the copper is removed from this mine, however, the equipment will be of no use to Miller and will be sold for an estimated $4,000.

a. $10,800
b. $5,400

Answer:

d. $4,500

Explanation:

The computation of depreciation expense on the new equipment is shown below:-

For computing the depreciation expense on the new equipment first we need to find out the Depreciation per annum which is here below:-

Depreciation per annum = (Cost - Residual value) ÷ Life

= ($76,000 - $4,000) ÷ 8

= $72,000 ÷ 8

= $9,000

Depreciation for 1 year calendar (July 1 to Dec 31) = Depreciation per annum × 6 months ÷ Total number of months in a year

= $9,000 × 6 ÷ 12

= $4,500

So, the depreciation expenses for the year end up-to 31st Dec is $4,500
