Required

For each of the following independent situations, prepare an income distribution schedule.

        Interest is based on weighted-average capital balances. The bonus is 5 percent and is calculated on net income after deducting the bonus. In 20X3, net income was $64,260. Any remainder is divided between Luc and Dennis in a 3:2 ratio, respectively.

        Interest is based on ending capital balances after deducting salaries, which the partners nor­mally withdraw during the year. The bonus is 8 percent and is calculated on net income after deducting the bonus and salaries. Net income was $108,700. Any remainder is divided equally.

c. Interest is based on beginning capital balances. The bonus is 12.5 percent and is calculated on net income after deducting the bonus. Net income was $76,950. Any remainder is divided between Luc and Dennis in a 4:2 ratio, respectively.
