    Option (A) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Revenue = $96,000

    expenses = $85,500

    Net income:

    = Revenue - expenses

    = $96,000 - $85,500

    = $10,500

    withdrawal = 20,000

    Net decrease equity:

    = Net income - withdrawal

    = $10,500 - $20,000

    = $9,500

    Hence,

    Equity at end of year = $122,500 - $9,500

    = $113,000
