Problem 6-15 Splish Mining Company recently purchased a quartz mine that it intends to work for the next 10 years. According to state environmental laws, Splish must restore the mine site to its original natural prairie state after it ceases mining operations at the site. To properly account for the mine, Splish must estimate the fair value of this asset retirement obligation. This amount will be recorded as a liability and added to the value of the mine on Splish's books. There is no active market for retirement obligations such as these, but Splish has developed the following cash flow estimates based on its prior experience in mining-site restoration. It will take 3 years to restore the mine site when mining operations cease in 10 years. Each estimated cash outflow reflects an annual payment at the end of each year of the 3-year restoration period.
