A coal mine cost $1,003,000 and is estimated to hold 51,000 tons of coal

There is no residual value. During the first year of operations, 6,000 tons are extracted and sold. Calculate depletion expense for the first year. (Round any intermediate calculations to the nearest cent.)
A) $100,300
B) $150,450
C) $200,600
D) $118,020


D .Depletion per unit = (Cost - Residual value) / Estimated total units
Depletion per unit = ($1,003,000 — 0 ) / 51,000 tons = $19.67 per ton
Depletion expense = Depletion per unit x Number of units extracted
Depletion expense = $19.67 x 6,000 tons = $118,020
