Answer:

a. $15,200

Explanation:

As we know that

Ending year capital balance = Beginning year capital balance + net income + investment made during the year - withdrawn during the year

$64,850 = $25,000 + net income + $53,000 - $28,350

$64,850 = $49,650 + net income

So, the net income would be

= $64,850 - $49,650

= $15,200

We simply added the beginning year balance, net income, investment and deduct the withdrawn amount to find out the closing year balance.
