Meir, Benson, and Lau are partners and share income and loss in a 2:3:5 ratio. The partnership's capital balances are as follows: Meir, $78,000; Benson, $119,000; and Lau, $203,000. Benson decides to withdraw from the partnership, and the partners and the partners agree not to have the assets revalued upon Benson's retirement.

Prepare the journal entry to record Benson's withdrawal from the partnership under each of the following independent assumptions. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

Benson (a) sells her interest to North for $160,000 after Meir and Lau approve the entry of North as a partner; (b) gives her interest to a son-in-law, Schmidt, and thereafter Meir and Lau accept Schmidt as a partner; (c) is paid $119,000 in partnership cash for her equity; (d) is paid $157,000 in partnership cash for her equity; and (e) is paid $14,000 in partnership cash plus equipment recorded on the partnership books at $34,000 less its accumulated depreciation of $11,600.

Assume that Benson does not retire from the partnership described in Part 1. Instead, Rhode is admitted to the partnership on February 1 with a 25% equity. Prepare journal entries to record Rhodes entry into the partnership under each of the following separate assumptions. Rhode invests (a) $133,333; (b) $97,333; and (c) $174,666. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)
