Bell, capital | $ | 72,500 |
Hardy, capital | 65,000 | |
Dennard, capital | 11,000 | |
Suddath, capital | 89,000 | |
Bell’s creditors have filed a $30,000 claim against the partnership’s assets. The partnership currently holds assets of $390,000 and liabilities of $152,500. If the assets can be sold for $235,000, what is the minimum amount that Bell’s creditors would receive?
