"Christie and Jergens formed a partnership with capital contributions of $300,000 and $400,000, respectively. Their partnership agreement calls for Christie to receive a $60,000 per year salary. Also, each partner is to receive an interest allowance equal to 10% of a partner's beginning capital investments. The remaining income or loss is to be divided equally. If the net income for the current year is $135,000, then Christie and Jergens's respective shares are:"

For computing the Christie and Jergens's respective shares, first, we have to compute the remaining income which is to be shared between these two partners. The computation is shown below:

= Net income - salary - interest on total capital

= $135,000 - $60,000 - 10% × ($300,000 + $400,000)

= $135,000 - $60,000 - $70,000

= $5,000

So, the remaining income would be divided equally between the partners

Now

Christie shares = Salary + interest on capital + remaining income

= $60,000 + ($300,000 × $10%) + $2,500

= $60,000 + $30,000 + $2,500

= $92,500

And, the Jergens shares = interest on capital + remaining income

= ($400,000 × $10%) + $2,500

= $40,000 + $2,500

= $42,500
