| Requirements: | ||||||||||||||||||
| 1 | Journalize the formation of the partnership. | |||||||||||||||||
| Journal | ||||||||||||||||||
| Accounts | Debit | Credit | ||||||||||||||||
| Cash | 27,000 | Cash placed into the new partnership is the total book value of all cash being provided. | ||||||||||||||||
| Accounts Receivable | 3,000 | Accounts Receivable comes from MARKET value, indicating this is the whole amount expected to be received of the receivables. | ||||||||||||||||
| Inventory | 25,000 | Inventory comes from the MARKET value, because this is what the partnership would have to pay to repurchase the inventory at this time. | ||||||||||||||||
| Equipment | 30,000 | Equipment comes from the MARKET value, because this is what the partnership would have to pay to repurchase the equipment at this time. | ||||||||||||||||
| Accounts Payable | 10,000 | Accounts payable comes from its book value, due to what the amount owed is at this time. | ||||||||||||||||
| Note Payable | 8,000 | Note payable comes from its book value, due to what the amount owed is at this time. | ||||||||||||||||
| Conway, Capital | 35,000 | Conway, Capital is a result of all the assets being brought into the partnership less the liabilities being brought into the partnership by Conway. | ||||||||||||||||
| Lawrence, Capital | 32,000 | Lawrence, Capital is a result of all the assets being brought into the partnership less the liabilities being brought into the partnership by Lawrence. | ||||||||||||||||
| 85,000 | 85,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Half way through the first year of operations Conway and Lawrence admit Korman to the partnership. Korman buys a 1/2 share for $25,000 in cash. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 2 | Journalize Korman's admission to the partnership. | |||||||||||||||||
| Journal | ||||||||||||||||||
| Accounts | Debit | Credit | ||||||||||||||||
| Cash | 25,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Korman, Capital | 25,000 | Korman gains entrance into the partnership simply by "buying in" with cash. | ||||||||||||||||
| The net income for the first year of oprations was $60,000. After giving Conway a salary allowance of $15,000, the rest of the net income is split evenly among the partners. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 3 | Prepare an income distribution worksheet. | In this step, we separate the amount of net income to go to each partners capital account. If this was a corporation, it would all | ||||||||||||||||
| Income Distribution | just go to Retained Earnings, but since this company is organized as a partnership, we need to separate out how much goes to | |||||||||||||||||
| Net Income | $60,000 | each partners capital account. | ||||||||||||||||
| Conway | Korman | Lawrence | ||||||||||||||||
| Salary Allowance | 15,000 | 0 | 0 | 15,000 | Since Conway is given a salary allowane of 15,000, we take that off the net income being split, leaving 45,000 left to be split among the three partners. | |||||||||||||
| Remainder Split | 15,000 | 15,000 | 15,000 | 45,000 | 60,000 net income - 15,000 salary allowance to Conway = 45,000, divided by 3 partners = 15,000 each for the remainder split. | |||||||||||||
| Total to close to capital accts | 30,000 | 15,000 | 15,000 | 60,000 | Make sure this total in the last column MATCHES the total amount of net income- this is how we get net income out of the | |||||||||||||
| income summary account, and into the partner's capital accounts! So they must match! | ||||||||||||||||||
| 4 | Journalize the closing of the income summary accounts to the capital accounts. | At this time, Income Summary (a temporary account used to close revenues and expenses in a partnership) has a credit balance of 60,000 for net income. We need to | ||||||||||||||||
| Journal | close that account, so we will DEBIT Income Summary for the amount of net income, and we will CREDIT the amount of each partner's share of that net income | |||||||||||||||||
| Accounts | Debit | Credit | to their capital accounts based on the amounts calculated in part 3. | |||||||||||||||
| Income Summary | 60,000 | |||||||||||||||||

| Korman, Capital | 15,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Lawrence, Capital | 15,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| After 5 years of operation Conway, Korma, and Lawrence decide to dissolve their partnership. The following are the account balances before liquidation begins: | ||||||||||||||||||
| Cash | 125,000 | The equipment is sold for $7,000 | ||||||||||||||||
| Equipment | 22,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Note Payable | 8,000 | Now the partners have decided its time to part ways and dissolve the | ||||||||||||||||
| Capital, Conway | 61,000 | partnership. Follow the steps below to close out the accounting books | ||||||||||||||||
| Capital,Korman | 44,000 | and pay out the remaining cash to the partners as per their capital | ||||||||||||||||
| Capital, Lawrence | 34,000 | account balances. | ||||||||||||||||
| 147,000 | 147,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| 5 | Complete the liquidating worksheet. | |||||||||||||||||
| Liquidation | ||||||||||||||||||
| Cash | Equipment | Note payable | Conway | Korman | Lawrence | |||||||||||||
| Beginning Balances | 125,000 | 22,000 | 8,000 | 61,000 | 44,000 | 34,000 | Enter beginning balances from the chart above. | |||||||||||
| Sale of Equipment | 7,000 | -22,000 | Sale of equipment- We received 7000 in cash, so that increases cash, but we have to decrease equipment for its full book value of 22,000. | |||||||||||||||
| Division of Loss on Sale | -5,000 | -5,000 | -5,000 | Since we received less cash than book value, we experience a loss. We divide that loss evenly among the partners, and decrease their capital account balances as such. (22000 BV - 7000 cash = 15,000 loss, divided by 3 = 5000 loss each) | ||||||||||||||
| Balance After Sale and Division of Loss | 132,000 | 0 | 8,000 | 56,000 | 39,000 | 29,000 | Check for balance in the accounting equation: Assets equal 132,000, Liabilities + Capital accounts = 132,000. | |||||||||||
| Payment of Note | -8,000 | -8,000 | Now, we pay off the note payable balance by decreasing cash and decreasing note payable for its balance. | |||||||||||||||
| Balance After Note Payment | 124,000 | 0 | 0 | 56,000 | 39,000 | 29,000 | Again, use accounting equation to check for balance: Assets = 124,000. Liabilities (0 balance) plus capital account balances = 124,000. | |||||||||||
| Distribution of cash to ptrs | -124,000 | -56,000 | -39,000 | -29,000 | Cut a check from the cash account for each partner in the amount of their capital account balance. | |||||||||||||
| Ending Balances | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | All balances should have an ending amount of 0 at this time. The business is closed, the lights are off. The partnership is over. | |||||||||||
| The chart in part 5 is great for organizing what happens in the liquidation process, but we still need to journalize those occurrences to get them into the books. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 6 | Journalize each step of the closing. | |||||||||||||||||
| Journal | ||||||||||||||||||
| Accounts | Debit | Credit | ||||||||||||||||
| Cash | 7,000 | First, we sold the equipment for 7000 cash, so we record the cash received, the loss incurred, and take the equipment off the books. | ||||||||||||||||
| Loss on Sale of Equipment | 15,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Equipment | 22,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Conway, Capital | 5,000 | Then, we record the decrease to the partner's capital accounts due to the loss. Since the loss account needs to be closed, similar to an expense | ||||||||||||||||
| Korman, Capital | 5,000 | account, we will decrease the loss account here as we would in the closing process of a normal year. | ||||||||||||||||
| Lawrence, Capital | 5,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Loss on Sale of Equipment | 15,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Note Payable | 8,000 | Record payment of the note payable, like any note payment would be recorded. | ||||||||||||||||
| Cash | 8,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Conway, Capital | 56,000 | Record the payment of cash to each of the partners based on their account balances. | ||||||||||||||||
| Korman, Capital | 39,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Lawrence, Capital | 29,000 | |||||||||||||||||
| Cash | 124,000 | |||||||||||||||||
