    The amount of bonus to the old partner is = $18,000

    Explanation:

    Samuel capital = $50,000

    Darci capital = $60,000

    Josh's capital = $50,000

    Total capital of the three partners = $50,000 + $60,000 + $50,000

    Total capital of the three partners = $160,000

    Josh's share = $160,000 * 20%

    Josh's share = $32,000

    The amount of bonus to the old partners = $50,000-$32,000 = $18,000
