Answer:

D. $ 600,000

Explanation:

if X's withdrawals = y

Net Income = 2y

X 's share of profit = 2y ×60%

                              = 1.2 y

X's Closing capital + X's withdrawals = Opening Capital + Share of Net income

$ 140000 + y = $ 80000 + 1.2y

1.2y - y = $ 140000 - $ 80000

           = $60000

0.20y = $ 60000

        y = $ 300000

Therefore,

Net Income = 2y

                    = 2×300000

                    = $ 600000
