Answer:
Some information was missing: Ries invested $80,000 , Bax invested $112,000, and Thomas invested $128,000.
allocation of profits:
Ries = $66,000 + ($80,000 x 10%) = $74,000
Bax = $56,000 + ($112,000 x 10%) = $67,200
Thomas = $80,000 + ($128,000 x 10%) = $92,800
total = $234,000
remaining profits = $249,000 - $234,000 = $15,000 / 3 = $5,000
total allocation of profits:
- Ries = $79,000
- Bax = $72,200
- Thomas = $97,800
- total = $249,000
