The LM partnership will take over the assets and assume the liabilities of the proprietors as of January 1, 2009.
Provide the following:
1. Prepare a balance sheet, for financial accounting purposes, for the LM partnership as of January 1, 2009.
2. In addition, assume that M agreed to recognize the goodwill generated by L's business. Accordingly, M agreed to recognize an amount for L's goodwill such that L's capital equaled M's capital on January 1, 2009. Given this alternative, how does the balance sheet prepared for #1 change?
