Question:

For the last 10 years, Am-Mex Coal has used the cost depletion factor of $2500 per 100 tons to write off the investment of $35 million in its Pennsylvania anthracite coal mine.

Determine next year’s cost and percentage depletion amounts, if estimated gross income is expected to be between $6.125 and $8.50 million on a production level of 72,000 tons.
