Profits and losses are allocated on a basis that includesinterest on capital balances, salaries, and the remainder in a fixed ratio. In each independentcase below, determine the allocation of income to each partner. Show your work (the best wayto complete each case is to use a net income schedule illustrated in your textbook). Do not tryto cram all of your work in the space below – use additional sheets of paper (or you may
complete in Excel or Word).

CASE A: Net income: $60,000; Interest on capital balances 6%; Salaries: Tinker $8,000,Evers $6,000, Chance $4,000; Fixed Ratio: Tinker 60%, Evers 20%, Chance 20%
CASE B: Net income: $90,000; Interest on capital balances 15%; Salaries: Tinker $10,000,
Evers $4,000, Chance $14,000; Fixed Ratio: Tinker 30%, Evers 30%, Chance 40%

CASE C: Net loss: ($10,000); Interest on capital balances 10%; Salaries: Tinker $6,000,
