Mo Meek, Lu Ling, and Barb Beck formed the MLB Partnership by making capital contributions of $75,600, $294,000, and $470,400, respectively. They predict annual partnership net income of $498,000 and are considering the following alternative plans of sharing income and loss: (a) equally; (b) in the ratio of their initial capital investments; or (c) salary allowances of $83,600 to Mo, $62,700 to Lu, and $94,500 to Barb; interest allowances of 10% on their initial capital investments; and the balance shared as follows: 20% to Mo, 40% to Lu, and 40% to Barb. Prepare the December 31 journal entry to close Income Summary assuming they agree to use plan (c) and that net income is $498,000. Mo, Lu, and Barb withdraw $39,300, $53,300, and $69,300, respectively, at year-end.

salary allowances of $83,600 to Mo, $62,700 to Lu, and $94,500 to Barb; interest allowances of 10% on their initial capital investments; and the balance shared as follows: 20% to Mo, 40% to Lu, and 40% to Barb.

net income $498,000, total distributions:

Mo = $83,600 + (20% x $257,200) = $135,040 Lu = $62,700 + (40% x $257,200) = $165,580 Barb = $94,500 + (40% x $257,200) = $197,380
