Expert Solution

Solution:
	Answer is d. Contribution $10,000

Working Notes:
	This Question is based on Accounting Equation.

	Total assets = Total liabilities + Equity or Capital

	And as per the accounting equation , both side of equation must have equal effect or at end must be equal .

	In our question , assets is increased by $40,000
	Liabilities is increased by $5,000

	Increase in Equity = Profit during the period + Contribution during the period

	Total assets = Total liabilities + Equity or Capital
	$40,000 = $5,000 + Profit during the period + Contribution during the period
	$40,000 = $5,000 + $25,000 + Contribution during the period
	Contribution during the period = $40,000 - $25,000 - $5,000
	Contribution during the period = $10,000
