    a.$34,050

    Explanation:

    In the question, it is mentioned that the capital balances of Abby and Bailey are $68,100 and $28,200 respectively. And, the Sandra buys one half of Abby interest which equals to

    = Abby capital balance * half-percentage

    = $68,100 * 50%

    = $34,050

    The amount which is given for buying Abby interest i. e $40,900 is not relevant. Hence, it is ignored
