Answer:

D. $8,000.

Explanation:

*Net loss is considered as the amount to be allocated between partners on equal sharing ratio. Otherwise the net allocated amount will be 76,000 ( -16000-5000-10000-27000-18000) net loss and Seth's share will be -38,000 (76000/2) . Question has no option of this amount.
