Read and translate the text: Задание 1. Прочитайте и переведите текст: Methods of accounting There is some disagreement among experts over the correct way to account for oil and gas properties, cut companies normally follow Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (either UK or US) and use a method known as ‘successful efforts’. In this method, all property acquisitions, successful exploratory wells, all development costs (including development of dry holes) and support equipment and facilities are capitalized, and are therefore seated as assets in the company’s balance sheet. On the other hand, in this method, unsuccessful exploratory wells are charged to expense at the time it is agreed that the wells are non-productive, and recorded in the profit and loss account. In the alternative method – ‘full-cost accounting’ – all operations are capitalized whether successful or unsuccessful. Items such as overheads and direct costs incurred in E&P are normally placed in the P&L account, but the treatment of items such as depreciation, depletion of any unproved reserves, or the costs of clean-up operations, varies widely from company to company. In an industry where cross-border mergers and acquisitions are commonplace, factors such as national differences of accountancy principles, frequent changes to legislation, the use of estimation and currency fluctuations combine to make oil and gas accountancy a highly complex operation.

A: My proposal would be that we have another six months to start producing, and if don’t then the lease expires. B: Six months seems rather a lot. What about three? A: OK. Let’s call it 120 days. As long as we do any kind of work on the land within 120 days of the end of the five years, then the lease goes on. And if we need to finish off production, then we go on after that 120 days. How does that sound? B: And then we negotiate a new lease. Is that what you have in mind? A: I guess so. Let’s draft this section and see how it looks. B: Sure, good idea. Task 3.
