Victoria's ending capital a/c = $93,000

Explanation:

Given:

Opening account balance = $90,000

Victoria contribution = $30,000

Share in loss = $12,000

Distribution at end = $15,000

Computation of Victoria's ending capital a/c.

Victoria's ending capital a/c = Opening account balance + Victoria contribution - Share in loss - Distribution at end

= $90,000 + $30,000 - $12,000 - $15,000

= $93000

NOTE : Liabilities does not added in the Victoria's capital account.
