Option d. is correct

Data Provided:

  • Owner's equity at begining = $130,000
  • Net loss = $30,000
  • Withdrawl = $20,000

Owner's equity can be calculated as

Owner's equity = Owner's equity at begining - Net loss - Withdrawls

Owner's equity = $130,000 - $30,000 - $20,000

Owner's equity = $80,000

On December 31, 2012, the amount in owner's equity is $80,000.
