C) $0
D) $20,000

A) $22,000

Explanation:

The computation of the net income allocated to Xavier is shown below:

Particulars          Xavier         Yolanda         Total

Capital               $50,000     $100,000

Interest at 10%    $5,000      $10,000        $15,000

Allowances         $27,000     $18,000       $45,000

Now the net income allocated to xavier is

= $5,000 + $27,000 + ($40,000 - $15,000 - $45,000) × 50%

= $32,000 - $10,000

= $22,000
