hjlf

Answer:

$48,800

Explanation:

Ratio = 2:3

Total investment:

= Benson capital + Orton capital + Ramsey capital

= $60,000 + $40,000 + $20,000

= $120,000

Total Equity of Ramsey:

= 40% of  Total investment

= 0.4 × $120,000

= $48,000

Old partners contribution:

= Equity of Ramsey - Ramsey capital

= $48,000 - $20,000

= $28,000

Benson’s capital balance after admitting Ramsey:

= Benson’s capital - Old partners contribution(2 ÷ 5)

= $60,000 - [$28,000 × (2 ÷ 5)]

= $60,000 - $11,200

= $48,800
