Leziy Corporation owns a coal mine, an oil field, and a tract of timberland. Information regarding these assets follows:

1. The coal mine was purchased several years ago at a total cost of $ 865,000. The mine was esti-mated to contain 200,000 tons of ore and to have a $ 35,000 salvage value. During the current year, 53,000 tons of ore were mined.

2. The oil field was acquired in exchange for stock and was initially valued at $ 12,600,000. It was estimated to contain 500,000 barrels of oil and to have a salvage value of $ 100,000. During the cur-rent year, 127,000 barrels of oil were extracted.

3. The timberland was obtained through a land swap and was initially recorded at $ 1,350,000. The number of board feet of timber estimated to be available amounted to 120,000, and the salvage value of the land was estimated at $ 150,000. During the current year, 21,000 board feet of timber were cut.

Required:

A. Assuming Leziy uses the units-of-production method of depletion, determine the depletion rate per ton, barrel, and board foot.
