Answer:
Beginning capital balance will be $189500
Explanation:
We have given ending balance = $159000
It is given that she withdraw $29000 from the partnership
So withdraw amount = $29000
Net loss = $20500
And additional contribution = $19000
We have to fond the capital balance at the beginning of the year
So capital balance at the beginning of the year will be = Ending balance + withdraw amount + net loss - additional contribution = $159000 +$29000 + $20500 - $ 19000 = $189500
So beginning capital balance will be $189500
