The following picture shows the solution of this question.

Notes:

  1. In this question accounts receivable after deducting allowance for doubtful debt that is $26000 - $700 net amount is $25300 so in revaluation account profit of $ 200 is taken as agreed net amount is $25500 so (25500-25300=200) therefore profit is of $200
  2. As inventory in trial balance is $44000 and agreed amount of revaluation is $45000 so profit in revaluation account of $1000.
  3. As store equipment is $30000 in trial balance and accumulated depreciation is $26000 so net amount is $4000 and agreed value of equipment is $26000 so there is a profit in revaluation account of $ 22000.
  4. As capital of blake is $74300 in trial balance so in partners capital account its taken as balance brought down and its profit on revaluation is taken only to his account as this profit is from revaluation of his assets and liabilities so right on this profit is only of blakes and not of Santos.
  5. Blake investment is $74300 his own capital and revaluation profit $23200 so his total investment in partnership firm is $97500 so the Santos agreed to bring cash equal to investment of Blake's after revaluation so he bring $97500 as his investment in firm.
