The pipeline is estimated to have zero residual value and it is depreciated on the basis of units-of output method. In the first year of operations, 40,000 barrels of oil were extracted of which 30,000 barrels were sold. In the second year, on the other hand, 55,000 barrels of oil were extracted. Required: a.
