D. Ordinary income, $20,000; Guaranteed payment, $30,000

D. Ordinary Income: $20,000 , Guaranteed payment: $30,000

Explanation:

Ordinary Income refers to that part of income which is classified under salaries, wages or net income in case of Partnership. Such income is taxable at ordinary rates.

Net income refers to income arrived at after deduction of all expenses and taxes from profits. In case of partnership, profits and losses are distributed in agreed profit sharing ratio as per the clause in partnership deed.

In the given case,

Net Income before adjusting guaranteed payment to Clover: $90,000

Less: Guaranteed payment to Clover:                                       ($30,000)

Ordinary Income/Net Income for all 3 partner's                       $60,000

Clover's share in ordinary income is one third i.e                   $20,000

Clover's guaranteed payment                                                    $30,000

a is the correct answer, tell me if im right
