Ending capital = $46,000

Explanation:

Given,

Total Assets = $125,000;

Total Liabilities = $75,000; and

Owner's Capital = $50,000.

Revenues = $46,000;

Expenses = $30,000;

Withdrawals = $20,000;

During 2009,

We know,

Net Income = (Revenue - Expenses)

Net Income = $ (46,000 - 30,000)

Net Income = $16,000

The end of 2009

Beginning Capital = $50,000

Add: Net profit = 16,000

Less: Drawings = (20,000)

Ending capital = $46,000
