    The ending owner's capital for the company is $40,000

    Explanation:

    For computing the ending owner capital, the following equation should be used which is shown below:

    Ending owner capital = Beginning owner capital - net loss - dividend paid to shareholders

    = $100,000 - - $50,000 - $10,000

    = $40,000

    The net loss and dividend decrease the owner equity which ultimately decreases the capital. So, we deduct these amounts.

    Hence, the ending owner's capital for the company is $40,000
