A. $0
B. $6,000
C. $30,000
D. $36,000

Respuesta :

Answer: Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Ron's capital = $80,000

Stella's = $75,000

Tiffany's = $50,000

Income sharing ratio = 3:2:1

Tiffany is retiring from the partnership

Amount paid to Tiffany = $56,000

Bonus = Amount paid to Tiffany - Tiffany's capital

          = $56,000 - $50,000

          = $6,000

Above bonus is 1/6th of goodwill.

Therefore, the total amount of goodwill recorded would be:

Goodwill = [tex]\frac{6,000}{\frac{1}{6} }[/tex]

              = $36,000
