Answer:

Jason capital account will increase by 25,000

Franco capital account will increase by 5,000

Explanation:

The ratio is 2:1

Franco ratio is 2 / (1 + 2) = 2/3

While Jason ratio is 1 / (1 + 2) = 1/3

Jason's capital account will increase for 30,000 for the salaries

and then, decrease by 15,000 x 1/3 = 5,000 for  the loss

the total increase would be then, 25,000 dollars

Fraco's capital account will be:

15,000 from salaries

and 15,000 x 2/3 = 10,000 decrease from the loss

the net increase will be of 5,000
