Answer 7-a. 21.6%
Barber Beginning Equity = $306,000
Barber Ending Equity = $306,000 + $65,000 (Share of Profit) - $75,000 (Withdrawl)
Barber Ending Equity = $296,000
Average Barber Equity = ($306,000 + $296,000) / 2 = $301,000
Barber Return on Equity = $65,000 (Share of Net Income) / $301,000 (average Capital)
Barber Return on Equity = 21.59% or say 21.6%(approx.)
