During 2017, Bolton Corporation acquired a mineral mine for $1,500,000 of which $200,000 was determined to be the salvage value of the land after the mineral has been removed. Geological surveys have indicated that 12 million units of the mineral could be extracted. During 2017, 1,500,000 units were extracted and 1,200,000 units were sold. What is the amount of depletion affecting the 2017 income statement? -CHEGG

$162,500

Explanation:

Depletion is used to expense the cost of extracting natural resources.

Depletion expense = (unit extracted in 2017 / total units that could be extracted) x (Cost- salvage value)

(1,500,000 / 12,000,000) x ( $1,500,000 - $200,000) = 0.125 × 1,300,000 = $162,500
