Quarry Corp. has the following costs related to a mine it acquired this year. Cost of land and natural resource rights $200,000 Asset retirement obligation to restore land 50,000 Costs of extraction during year 1 35,000 Equipment used for mining 100,000 Exploration and drilling costs to prepare quarry for extraction 40,000 What amount should be included as an asset for natural resources

Respuesta :

Answer:

$375,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount included in the natural resource is shown below:

= Cost of land & natural resource rights + cost of extraction during year + equipment used for mining + exploration & drilling cost

= $200,000 + $35,000 + $100,000 + $40,000

= $375,000

Hence, all the cost is inlcuded for natural resource except asset retirement obligation for restoring the land as this is not relevant so we ignored it
