Answer 1

a.$46,000

Step-by-step explanation:

A partner ship account records the transactions related to partnership. All transaction of withdrawal, Profit allocation etc. are recorded to determine the closing balance of each partner.

Ending Capital Balance = Beginning Capital balance + Income allocation for the year - withdrawals

Jordon's Ending Capital Balance = $40,000 + ( $40,000 x 0.5 ) - $14,000

Jordon's Ending Capital Balance = $40,000 + $20,000 - $14,000

Jordon's Ending Capital Balance = $46,000
