On May 1, 2016, Hecala Mining entered into an agreement with the state of New Mexico to obtain the rights to operate a mineral mine in New Mexico for $9 million. Additional costs and purchases included the following (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.):

Development costs in preparing the mine	$	2,200,000
Mining equipment		117,000
Construction of various structures on site		24,500

After the minerals are removed from the mine, the equipment will be sold for an estimated residual value of $12,000. The structures will be torn down.

Geologists estimate that 700,000 tons of ore can be extracted from the mine. After the ore is removed the land will revert back to the state of New Mexico.

The contract with the state requires Hecala to restore the land to its original condition after mining operations are completed in approximately four years. Management has provided the following possible outflows for the restoration costs:

Cash Outflow			Probability
$	500,000			40	%
	600,000			30	%
	700,000			30	%

Hecalas credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate is 7%. During 2016, Hecala extracted 110,000 tons of ore from the mine. The companys fiscal year ends on December 31.

Required:

1.	Determine the amount at which Hecala will record the mine. (Round "Depreciation" and "Depletion" rates to 4 decimal places.) Cost of mine:

2.	Calculate the depletion of the mine and the depreciation of the mining facilities and equipment for 2016, assuming that Hecala uses the units-of-production method for both depreciation and depletion. (Round "Depreciation" and "Depletion" rates to 4 decimal places.) Depletion: Depreciation of Machinery: Depreciation of Structures:

3.	How much accretion expense will the company record in its income statement for the 2016 fiscal year? (Round "Depreciation" and "Depletion" rates to 4 decimal places.) Accretion Expense:

4

During 2017, Hecala changed its estimate of the total amount of ore originally in the mine from 700,000 to 900,000 tons. Calculate the depletion of the mine and depreciation of the mining facilities and equipment for 2017 assuming Hecala extracted 140,000 tons of ore in 2017. (Round "Depreciation" and "Depletion" rates to 4 decimal places.) Depletion: Depreciation of Machinery: Depreciation of Structures:
