Three people share the profit and losses as follows. Total ratio is 100. Hendrick and Mitch each get 2/5 of the profit or suffer 2/5 of the loss i. e (40/100) as well while redding gets 1/5 i. e (20/100). Redding can contribute no more than one-fifth of the liqudated capital. The$20, 000 in excess liability will be distributed in proportion to their ratios. 2/5 * 20, 000 = $8, 000 each for Hendrick and Mitcherum while redding gets 1/5 * 20, 000 = $4000. If the non cash assest is sold Hendrick would receive 2/5 * 50, 000 = 100000/5 = $20, 000. The minmum hendrick would receive would be $20, 000 + $8, 000 = $28, 000
