    Paul account: 138,000

    Explanation:

    the income will be split in a 3:2 ratio between the partners

    3 + 2 = 5 parts in total

    from which Patty has 3 and Paul 2

    Paul participation on the distribution:

    40,000 income summary x 2/5 Paul's participation ratio = 8,000

    Paul's capital account after distribution: 130,000 + 8,000 = 138,000
