    Austin's capital:

    = Market value of land + Market value of inventory + Cash - Notes payable

    = $162,000 + $62,900 + $34,000 - $60,000

    = $198,900

    Therefore, the journal entry is as follows:

    Land A/c Dr. $162,000

    Inventory A/c Dr. $62,900

    Cash A/c Dr. $34,000

    To notes payable $60,000

    To Austin's capital $198,900

    (To record the contribution of Fisher to the partnership)
