Calculate the maximum allocated loss to each partner:

MaximumallocatedlosstopersonK=$59,00040%=$59,000×10040=$5,900,00040=$147,500

Now, find for all the other partners:

Maximumallocatedlosstoperson M=$39,00030%=$39,000×10030=$3,900,00030=$130,000

Now, find for partner B:

Maximumallocatedlosstoperson B=$34,00010%=$34,000×10010=$3,400,00010=$340,000

Now, find for partner J:

MaximumallocatedlosstopersonJ=$34,00020%=$34,000×10020=$3,400,00020=$170,000

Person M shares a minimum amount of loss and is in the most feasible condition with 30% share and maximum allocated loss of $130,000.

Calculate the distribution of loss of $130,000 to all the partners

LosstopersonK=$130,000×40%=$52,000LosstopersonM=$130,000×30%=$39,000

Now, loss to other partners

LosstopersonB=$130,000×10%=$13,000LosstopersonJ=$130,000×20%=$26,000
