In the early part of 2021, the partners of Hugh, Jacobs, and Thomas sought assistance from a local accountant. They had begun a new business in 2020 but had never used an accountants services.

Hugh and Jacobs began the partnership by contributing $80,000 and $30,000 in cash, respectively. Hugh was to work occasionally at the business, and Jacobs was to be employed full-time. They decided that year-end profits and losses should be assigned as follows:

• Each partner was to be allocated 10 percent interest computed on the beginning capital balances for the period.
• A compensation allowance of $5,000 was to go to Hugh with a $20,000 amount assigned to Jacobs.
• Any remaining income would be split on a 4:6 basis to Hugh and Jacobs, respectively.

In 2020, revenues totaled $90,000, and expenses were $64,000 (not including the partners compensation allowance). Hugh withdrew cash of $8,000 during the year, and Jacobs took out $11,000. In addition, the business paid $5,000 for repairs made to Hughs home and charged it to repair expense.

On January 1, 2021, the partnership sold a 20 percent interest to Thomas for $43,000 cash. This money was contributed to the business with the bonus method used for accounting purposes.
