Other assets     482,000 (60% of $820,000)

Other assets    200,000 (40% of $820,000)

Total cash realized = $772,000

Total capital = $690,000

Total cash available to settle capital = $492,000

Shortfall in capital = $198,000

This is shared according to their loss sharing ratio:

Hardwick = $198,000 * 40% = $79,200

Saunders = $198,000 * 30% = $59,400

Ferris = $198,000 * 30% = $59,400

The shortfall is deducted from their capital accounts:

Hardwick, capital $220,800 (300,000 - 79,200)

Saunders, capital $140,600 (200,000 - 59,400)

Ferris, capital $130,600 (190,000 - 59,400)

Balance shared = $492,000
