E11-19 (Depletion ComputationsTimber)
Hernandez Timber Company owns 9,000 acres of timberland purchased in 2001 at a cost of $1,400 per acre. At the time of purchase, the land without the timber was valued at $400 per acre. In 2002, Hernandez built fire lanes and roads, with a life of 30 years, at a cost of $87,000. Every year, Hernandez sprays to prevent disease at a cost of $3,000 per year and spends $7,000 to maintain the fire lanes and roads. During 2003, Hernandez selectively logged and sold 700,000 board feet of timber, of the estimated 3,000,000 board feet. In 2004, Hernandez planted new seedlings to replace the trees cut at a cost of $100,000. Instructions (a) Determine the depreciation expense and the cost of timber sold related to depletion for 2003. (b) Hernandez has not logged since 2003. If Hernandez logged and sold 900,000 board feet of timber in 2014, when the timber cruise (appraiser) estimated 5,000,000 board feet, determine the cost of timber sold related to depletion for 2014. E11-20 (Depletion ComputationsOil) Federer Drilling Company has leased property on which oil has been discovered. Wells on this property produced 18,000 barrels of oil during the past year that sold at an average sales price of $65 per barrel. Total oil resources of this property are estimated to be 250,000 barrels. The lease provided for an outright payment of $600,000 to the lessor (owner) before drilling could be commenced and an annual rental of $31,500. A premium of 5% of the sales price of every barrel of oil removed is to be paid annually to the lessor. In addition, Federer (lessee) is to clean up all the waste and debris from drilling and to bear the costs of reconditioning the land for farming when the wells are abandoned. The estimated fair value, at the time of the lease, of this clean-up and reconditioning is $30,000. Instructions From the provisions of the lease agreement, compute the cost per barrel for the past year, exclusive of operating costs, to Federer Drilling Company. E11-21 (Depletion ComputationsTimber) Jonas Lumber Company owns a 7,000-acre tract of timber purchased in 2005 at a cost of $1,300 per acre. At the time of purchase, the land was estimated to have a value of $300 per acre without the timber. Jonas Lumber Company has not logged this tract since it was purchased. In 2012, Jonas had the timber cruised. The cruise (appraiser) estimated that each acre contained 8,000 board feet of timber. In 2012, Jonas built 10 miles of roads at a cost of $8,400 per mile. After the roads were completed, Jonas logged and sold 3,500 trees containing 880,000 board feet. Instructions (a) Determine the cost of timber sold related to depletion for 2012. (b) If Jonas depreciates the logging roads on the basis of timber cut, determine the depreciation expense for 2012. (c) If Jonas plants five seedlings at a cost of $4 per seedling for each tree cut, how should Jonas treat the reforestation?
E11-22 (Depletion ComputationsMining) Henrik Mining Company purchased land on
February 1, 2012, at a cost of $1,250,000. It estimated that a total of 60,000 tons of mineral was available for mining. After it has removed all the natural resources, the company will be required to restore the property to its previous state because of strict environmental protection laws. It estimates the fair value of this restoration obligation at $90,000. It believes it will be able to sell the property afterwards for $100,000. It incurred developmental costs of $200,000 before it was able to do any mining. In 2012, resources removed totaled 30,000 tons. The company sold 24,000 tons. Instructions Compute the following information for 2012. (a) Per unit mineral cost. (b) Total material cost of December 31, 2012, inventory.
