Question:
Angie Castillo and Reesa Cameron own The Garden and Lawn Shop. The partnership agreement provides that Castillo can withdraw $10,000 a month and Cameron, $9000 a month in anticipation of profits. The withdrawals, which are not considered to be salaries, were made each month. Net income and net losses are to be allocated 40 percent to Castillo and 60 percent to Cameron. For the year ended December 31, 20X1, the partnership earned a net income of $300,000.
INSTRUCTIONS
