How do you know it's distribution of 60k is split into 20k, 32k, and then 8k for Clarke, Frick and Clarke, and Frick, Wilson and Clarke respectively on the Statement of Partnership Liquidation. Thank you! I have the answer I just can't figure that one part out for my own numbers I need to calculate. Please help.

Liabilities - $40,000

Frick Cap (60%) - 129,000

Clarke Cap (20%) - 75,000

Total liabilities and cap - 279,000

Part A 

Prepare a predistribution plan for this partnership

Part B

The following transactions occur in liquidating this business:

1. Distributed cash based on safe capital balances immediately to the partners. Liquidation expenses of $8,000 are estimated as a basis for this computation.

2. Sold noncash assets with a book value of 94,000 for 60,000

3. Paid all liabilities

6. Paid actual liquidation expenses of 6,000 only.
