Let's address the given questions step by step.
To prepare the partners' capital statement, we need to account for the beginning capital balances, the drawings, and the net income shared equally between the partners.
Beginning Capital Balances:
- Nancy Payne: \$24,000
- Ann Dody: \$20,300
Drawings:
- Nancy Payne: \$8,400
- Ann Dody: \$4,700
Net Income:
- Total Net Income: \$25,700
- Shared equally: \$25,700 / 2 = \$12,850 each
Now, let's calculate the ending capital balances for each partner.
Nancy Payne:
- Beginning Capital: \$24,000
- Add: Share of Net Income: \$12,850
- Less: Drawings: \$8,400
- Ending Capital: \$24,000 + \$12,850 - \$8,400 = \$28,450
Ann Dody:
- Beginning Capital: \$20,300
- Add: Share of Net Income: \$12,850
- Less: Drawings: \$4,700
- Ending Capital: \$20,300 + \$12,850 - \$4,700 = \$28,450
