    Option (c) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Income sharing ratio = 1:2:3

    Balances in the capital accounts:

    Charles has a credit balance = $50,000

    Carissa has a debit balance = $40,000

    Clay has a credit balance = $20,000

    All the credit balances of the capital accounts are added to the cash available and all the debit balances are deducted while calculating the cash available for the distribution.

    Cash is available for distribution to the partners:

    = Charles (Credit balance) - Carissa (Debit balance) + Clay (Credit balance)

    = $50,000 - $40,000 + $20,000

    = $30,000
