Answer:

Vern's depletion deduction is  $175000

Explanation:

given data

mineral interest = $3,500,000

recoverable units = 500,000

mined = 40,000 units

sold = 25,000 units

depletion rate = 22%

to find out

Vern's depletion deduction

solution

we get here depletion expense that is

depletion expense = \frac{cost - salvage\ value}{estimate\ no\ units} * number\ of\ unit\ extracted      ...........................1

put here value we get

depletion expense = \frac{3500000 - 0}{500000} * 25000  

depletion expense = $175000

and

percentage depletion = $800,000 × 22%

percentage depletion = $176000

we know that % depletion method is not accept as IRS for certain natural resources

so we use depletion method is use here

Vern's depletion deduction is  $175000

Sindrei [870]

Answer: Because the issuer official no longer holds elected office, the contribution limits of Rule G-37 do not apply.

Explanation:

Rule G-37 is a way to ensure that Municipal Issuers are not unduly influenced by those who donated to their campaigns to get into a position to become Municipal Issuers.

It prohibites for 2 years, Municipal Finance Professionals (MFP) amongst others from engaging in municipal securities business with a Municipal issuer.

An exception however, is that if the MFP is entitled to a vote for the Official in question, they can donate no more than $250 per election.

Seeing as the Municipal Issuer Officer has lost her position, the MFP need not worry about this $250 limit as it no longer applies to her. The MFP is free to donate $500 to the "clean-up" campaign.

notsponge [240]

Answer:

A. The total cost of the equipment.

Explanation:

Even if Jambon has not used the equipment in 2005 because it can only be used for the product that is to be developed in five years, Jambon still had to pay for the full cost of the equipment.

Because the equipment is laying idle, it is not depreciating. Therefore, the expense that Jambon is not incurring, is the depreciation expense associated with this equipment. This depreciation expense will only be seen in five years, when the product it was bought for is finally completed.
