    a) The capital balance remaining for three partners is:

    Pineda = $185,000

    Adams = $165,000

    Gomez = $130,000

    b) The capital balance of the remaining three partners is:

    Adams = $20,000

    Fergie = $43333

    Gomez = $66667

    Explanation:

    a)

    goodwill paid = amount paid to Fergie - capital balance of Fergie

    = $140,000 - $110,000

    = $30,000

    total goodwill = $30,000*10/2

    = $150,000

    Pineda's share = $150,000*3/10

    = $45,000

    Adams's share = $150,000*3/10

    = $45,000

    Gomez's share = $150,000*2/10

    = $30,000

    capital balances of remaining partners using the goodwill method:

    Pineda = capital balance + share pf goodwill

    = $140,000 + $45000

    = $185,000

    Adams = capital balance + share pf goodwill

    = $120,000 + $45000

    = $165,000

    Gomez = capital balance + share pf goodwill

    = $100,000 + $30,000

    = $130,000

    total remaining capital balance = $130,000 + $165,000 + $185,000

    = $480,000

    Therefore, The capital balance remaining for three partners is $185,000, $165,000 and $130,000.

    b) bonus paid = amount paid to Pineda - capital balance of Pineda

    = $340,000 - $140,000

    = $200,000

    bonus to be shared by remaining partners in the ratio 3:2:1

    Adam's share = $200,000*3/6

    = $100,000

    Fergie's share = $200,000*2/6

    = $66,667

    Gomez's share = $200,000*1/6

    = $33.333

    the remaining capitals:

    Adams = $100,000 - $120000

    = $20,000

    Fergie = $66,667 - $110000

    = $43333

    Gomez = $33333.33 - $100000

    = $66667

    Therefore, The capital balance of the remaining three partners is Adams = $20,000, Fergie = $43333 and Gomez = $66667
