Answer:

B. Depletion will be $950,000 during  2018

Explanation:

Cost           $10,000,000

Residual Value ($500,000)

Cost to be depleted $9,500,000

No. of Carats to be extracted over the life of mine 500,000

Per carat depletion (9,500,000/500,000)     $19

Depletion for the year 2018     $19*50,000=$950,000

This will be deducted from revenue as depletion for the year.So option B is correct.
