1. what is the present value of the ARO
2. prepare an amortization table of the ARO for the 5 years of useful life.
Accounting for asset retirement obligations (LO 11-6) Coyote Co. is building a waste landfill in the desert between Arizona and California. Coyote estimates that this landfill will be in operation for five years, will cost $250 million to build, and will generate $800 million in revenues during its useful life. Federal law requires that Coyote decommission and decontaminate the site at the end of its useful life. A team of engineers has studied the decontamination procedure and has estimated that Coyote will have to spend $15 million on the decommissioning process when the landfill is shut down in five years. Coyote's credit-adjusted rate of interest is 10%
