Initial Contributions:

$1)$ Andrew would contribute a retail space he purchased a number of years ago into the business. The building was originally purchased for $$200,000($$$150,000$ was allocated to land and $$50,000$ was allocated to the building when originally purchased$).$ They estimated current fair value of the property is $$350,000($$$75,000$ to building and $$275,000$ to the land$).$ The property has a note payable secured by the land with a balance of $$60,000.$ The partnership will assume the remaining loan balance.

$2)$ Ayman would contribute various equipment and technology that would be necessary to begin operations. In total, the equipment originally cost Ayman $$120,000$ and currently has an estimated fair value of $$100,000.$ Ayman will also contribute $$80,000$ of cash into the business.

$3)$ The partners decide that they will start with capital balances equivalent to $55\%($Andrew$)$ and $45\%($Ayman$).$ They decide to use the "Bonus Method" to determine their initial individual capital balances.

Distributions:

$1)$ Since Ayman contributed $$80,000$ of cash, he's able to take monthly cash distributions of $$2,000$ until he's recouped his initial contribution of $$80,000.$ Each month's distribution is paid on the first of the month.

$2)$ In year's in which the partnership reports net income, Andrew and Ayman can each take annual year$-$end distributions equal to $10\%$ of their ending capital balances to assist each partner in making their required income tax payments related to their partnership net income. The $10\%$ is to be calculated after all other capital adjustments have been completed for the year $($such as dividends and allocating partnership income$).$

Profit$/($Loss$)$ Allocations:

Annual net profit$/($loss$)$ shall be allocated to the partners based on the following waterfall:

Provision #$1-$ Ayman shall receive an annual $$25,000$ "management fee" allocation due to his managing the daily operations of the I.T$.$ business.

Provision #$2-$ Andrew shall receive an "interest" allocation due to contributing a greater amount of assets into the business. The amount allocated shall be $15\%$ of his capital balance as of January $2$nd of each year $($his $2023$ allocation shall be calculated based on his capital balance after initial contributions$).$

Provision #$3-$ Any remaining profit$/($loss$)$ shall be split between Andrew and Ayman $40$:$60,$ with $40\%$ to Andrew and $60\%$ to Ayman.

Requirement #$1$

Requirement #$2$

It's now the end of their first year, and the two were smart to start their own business as they're already turning a profit. During $2023,$ HiloSati, LLP reported net income of $$310,000.$ All available distributions were taken by each partner. Determine each partner's ending capital balance as of December $31,2023.$

Capital $-$ Andrew Capital $-$ Ayman

Requirement #$3$

After their successful first year of operations, the partners decide it's time to expand their operations. In order to do so$,$ they'll need more cash. They reach out to additional Auggie alums $($who have been very successful so far in their careers$)$ to see if they're interested in joining their partnership. Reina and Fatuma started their own consulting firm a couple years ago and have been extremely successful, resulting in plenty of excess cash available. Fatuma has her hands full running the daily operations of their business and doesn't have the capacity to join in a new project. But Reina agrees to buy into HiloSati, LLP as an investor, but will not assist in managing the business or daily operations.

The three partners agree on the following terms and amend their partnership agreement accordingly:
