Explanation / Answer

Since, the total of 20 oil wells were drilled during exploration. Therefore, total expense of 20 oil wells drilled has to be recorded in the income statement.

Cost of each oil well drilled = $4,600,000

Total cost of 20 oil wells drilled = 4,600,000×20 = $92,000,000 = $92 million

Answer is "$92.0 million"
