At the beginning of 2017, Aristotle Company acquired a mine for $970,000. Of this amount, $100,000 was ascribed to the land valu

e and the remaining portion to the minerals in the mine. Surveys conducted by geologists have indicated that approximately 12,000,000 units of ore appear to be in the mine. Aristotle incurred $170,000 of development costs associated with this mine prior to any extraction of minerals. It also determined that the fair value of its obligation to prepare the land for an alternative use when all of the mineral has been removed was $40,000. During 2017, 2,500,000 units of ore were extracted and 2,100,000 of these units were sold. Compute the following. Collapse question part (a) The total amount of depletion for 2017. (Round per unit answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 0.45 for computational purpose and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 45,892.)

Answer: $225,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Company acquired a mine = $970,000 of this amount,

Land value = $100,000 and remaining  portion to the minerals in the mine

Ore appear to be in the mine = 12,000,000 units

Aristotle incurred development costs = $170,000

fair value of its obligation = $40,000

ore were extracted = 2,500,000 units

Units sold = 2,100,000

Depletion\ per\ unit = \frac{Mine\ acquiring\ cost + Development\ cost + Fair\ value\ of\ land - land\ value}{Ore\ appear\ to\ be\ in\ the\ mine}

                                       =\frac{970,000 + 170,000 + 40,000 - 100,000}{12,000,000}

                                       = $0.09 depletion per unit

The total amount of depletion for 2017 =  depletion per unit × ore were extracted

                                                                 = $0.09 × 2,500,000

                                                                 = $225,000

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Becker Company

The amount that Becker will report as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Year 2 balance sheet is:

= $22,800.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Year 2 Beginning balance:

Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) = $10,800 credit

Year 2 reported net income = $653,000

Unrealized gain during Year 2 = $12,000

The Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Year 2 balance sheet is:

Beginning balance $10,800

Unrealized gain        12,000

AOCI for Year 2 = $22,800

b) Becker's Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income includes unrealized gains and losses arising from some investments, pension plans, and hedging transactions.  These are usually reported in the equity section of the balance sheet and then netted off from the retained earnings.

One of two methods must be used to produce expansion anchors. Method A costs $80,000 initially and will have a $15,000 salvage v
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Method b

Explanation:

Present worth can be calculated using a financial calculator

For method A ,

Cash flow in year 0 = $80,000

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = $30,000

Cash flow in year 3 = $30,000 - $15,000 = $15,000

I = 12%

Present worth = $141,378.23

For method B,

Cash flow in year 0 = $120,000

Cash flow in year 1 and 2 = $8, 000

Cash flow in year 3 = $8,000 - $40,000 = $-32,000

I = 12%

Present worth = $110,743.44

Method b would is chosen because it worth less.

To find the present worth using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Given:

Projected sales = $300,000 or 75,000 units

Desired profit = $36,000

Find:

Target cost per unit

Computation:

Target cost per unit = [Projected sales - Desired profit] / Total units

Target cost per unit = [$300,000 - $36,000] / 75,000

Target cost per unit = $264,000 / 75,000

Target cost per unit = $3.52
