Answer: $85,000
Explanation:
Drawings are debited/deducted from the Equity account to reflect that the owner's holdings in the business has reduced.
Profit is added to the Equity account in the form of Retained Earnings.
The closing Balance on Equity is;
Closing Balance = Opening Balance + Profit - Drawings
Profit = Closing Balance - Opening Balance + Drawings
Profit = 175,000 - 120,000 + 30,000
Profit = $85,000
