Creditors of partner Ding filed a $25,000 claim against the partnership's assets. At that time, the partnership held noncash assets reported at $360,000 and liabilities of $120,000. There was no cash on hand at the time. If the assets could be sold for $228,000, what is the minimum amount that Ezzard's creditors would have received?
