Oil Company, reserving a 1/5 royalty. During 2011, Frank Oil Company makes the

b. To Ms. Wilson, a production payment interest of 30,000 barrels of oil to be paid
out of 1/4 of the working interest's share of production (i.e., Ms. Wilson gets 1/4 of
this production until she receives a total of 30,000 barrels)
c. To Mr. Smith, a joint working interest of 1/3 after giving consideration to all the
above assignments.
REqUIRED: Assuming gross production is 45,000 barrels, calculate each owner's
