The partnership agreement for Wilson, Pickett & Nelson, a general partnership, provided that profits be shared between the partners in the ratio of their financial contributions to the partnership. Wilson contributed $100,000, Pickett contributed $50,000 and Nelson contributed $50,000. In the partnership's first year of operation, it incurred a loss of $110,000. What amount of the partnership's loss, rounded to the nearest dollar, should be absorbed by Nelson?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$27,500

Explanation:

The computation of the partnership loss borne by the Nelson is shown below:

= (Contributed amount by Nelson) ÷ (Firm contribution amount) × (loss incurred)

= ($50,000) ÷ ($200,000) × ($110,000)

= 0.25 × $110,000

= $27,500

The firm contribution amount would be calculated below:

= Wilson contributed amount + Pickett contributed amount + Nelson contributed amount

= $100,000 + $50,000 + $50,000

= $200,000
