Answer:
b. 9.75%
Explanation:
When a partner invests in a business, he/she expects to get return on his equity in the business. The major reason for this is to compare his/her return in the partnership business with the return he/she could get elsewhere.
The return on partner equity is calculated by dividing his/her net income from the partnership business by his/her average capital for the period.
The formula is given below:
<u> Net income </u> x 100
Average capital
Average capital = <u>Opening capital balance + Closing capital balance</u>
2
For Carter Pearson, the average capital is =<u> $55,500 + $62,500</u>
2
= $59,000
The return on equity will be: <u>$5,750 </u> x 100
$59,000
= 9.7457
= 9.75% - approximate to two decimal point.
