Answer:
Explanation:
Based on the information that has been given in the question, the following answer can be provided
a. Determine the amount of Pepper's deficiency.
First, we need to calculate the loss that was recognized. This will be:
= ($13,000 + $49,000) - $24,000
= $62,000 - $24,000
= $38,000
Pepper's share of the loss will then be:
= $38,000/2
= $19,000
Pepper's deficiency will now be his contribution minus the loss incurred. This will be:
= $19,000 - $13,000
= $6,000
Deficiency of $6000
b. Determine the amount distributed to Reynell, assuming Pepper is unable to satisfy the deficiency.
This will be:
= $49,000 - $19000 - $6,000
= $49,000 - $25,000
= $24,000
