Explanation:

Amount received from partnership

                                                          2011                           2012

operating income                         60,000                         72,000

                                             (50% of 120,000)           (50% 0f 144,000)

guaranteed payments                  24,000                           36,000

                                              (2,000 × 12)                      (3,000 × 12)

    Total                                       84,000                            108,000

84,000 × 9/12 (from 1 jan 2011 - 30 sept 2011) = 63,000

108,000 × 3/12 (from 1 oct 2011 - 31 dec 2011) = 27,000

Total = 90,000 option d
