Answer:
Conyers = $38,580
Poodle = $222,420
Explanation:
Annual salary allowance to Poodle of $146,160.
Interest of 6% on each partner's capital balance on January 1.
Any remaining net income divided to Conyers and Poodle, 1:2.
net income $261,000
distribution of interests:
- Conyers = $54,000 x 6% = $3,240
- Poodle = $93,000 x 6% = $5,580
drawings (annual salary allowance):
remaining income = $261,000 - $146,160 - $3,240 - $5,580 = $106,020
- Conyers (1/3) = $35,340
- Poodle (2/3) = $70,680
total distributed:
- Conyers = $3,240 + $35,340 = $38,580
- Poodle = $5.580 + $146,160 + $70,680 = $222,420
