Dissolution
Dissolution
• Expansion, infusion of more capital, special skills, all needed to
strengthen competitive position are some reason why partners
may decide to admit a new partner or convert this into a
corporation.
• A partner who is dissatisfied with the way the business is
operating may decide to cut relation on carrying on business
with the other partners.
Dissolution
Dissolution Defined – Article 1828 of the civil code
• Change in relation of the partners ceasing to be associated in
carrying on the business. The legal provisions (Articles 1830
and 1831) further gives us causes of dissolution:

2. By operation of law, like when an event makes it illegal
for the business to be carried on or when a partner
becomes insolvent or dies, or by the civil interdiction of
any one of the partners.
3. By judicial degree, like insanity of a partner or
commission of fraud by a partner or by the internal
dissension among partner.
Dissolution
• Dissolution does not necessarily terminate the basic business
operation of the partnership except for the change in ownership.
• The change in the ownership structure of the partnership dissolves
the existing partnership with the creating of a new partnership.
• The accountant refers to the articles of Co-partnership for the
agreement on how the dissolution shall be implemented and may also
advise the partners in the structuring of the buy/sell agreement.
• The accountant records the dissolution accordingly and revises the
partners’ equity.
Accounting Procedures Just Before Dissolution
1. Update the capital accounts of the existing partners as of dissolution
date by revaluating the partnership assets, determining the profit
share of the partners from the last statement of financial position to
dissolution date, and closing their drawing accounts.
2. If the dissolution contemplated upon was not provided for in the
articles, the terms and conditions for the dissolution should ascertained
from the partners.
3. Record the dissolution or change in ownership and revise the partners’
equity.
Articles of Co-Partnership Redrawn
• It is important to redraw the Articles of Co-Partnership upon
dissolution since some provisions will be affected such as:
• Names of the partners and their contribution.
• Manner of management.
• Duties and responsibilities of each partner.
• Profit and loss sharing ratio.
• Manner of dissolving or liquidating the partnership.
Updating Partners’ Equity Before Dissolution
Illustration: Assume that A and B of AB Tours and Travel decide to
dissolve the partnership and admit C as a new partner on March 31. The
following were agreed by the partners: 1. revalue the land by P262,500
and 2. distribute the profit reported by the accountant for the first
quarter amounting to P300,000. Additionally, cash withdrawals made
during the first quarter of the year amounts to P25,000 for each partner.
As of January 1, three months before dissolution date, records show their
capital accounts as P400,000 for A and P600,000 for B. The articles of
co-partnership provided profit distribution based on capital contribution.
Updating Partners’ Equity Before Dissolution
The accountant prepared the following entries:
a. Land 262,500
A, Capital 105,000
B, Capital 157,500
Adjust the undervaluation of land
A (400,000/1,000,000 x P262,500) 105,000
B (600,000/1,000,000 x P262,500) 157,500
Updating Partners’ Equity Before Dissolution
The accountant prepared the following entries:
b. Income Summary 300,000
A, Drawing 120,000
B, Drawing 180,000
to record the profit share of the partners.
A (4/10 x P300,000) 120,000
B (6/10 x P300,000) 180,000
Updating Partners’ Equity Before Dissolution
The accountant prepared the following entries:
c. A, Drawing 95,000
B, Drawing 155,000
A, Capital 95,000
B, Capital 155,000
To close the drawing accounts: profit share.
A (120,000-25,000) = 95,000
B (180,000-25,000) = 155,000
Admission of a New Partner
Admission of a new partner may take place in one of two ways:
1. Purchasing an interest from one or more existing partners.
2. Investing cash or other assets in the partnership.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
• A new partner may purchase a partnership interest from one of
more existing partners.
• A capital account is set up for the new partner by transferring
interest equal to the portion purchased from the existing
partner(s).
• This transaction is a personal transaction between the existing
partner(s) and the new partner.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 1: Transfer of interest is equal to the amount paid.
L paid S P10,000 to purchase half of her interest in the retail business owned by A
and S whose capital balances are P30,000 and P20,000, respectively. A and S
shares profits and losses 3/5 and 2/5, respectively. Observe the following:
The analysis will affect the following accounts in this manner:
1. The payment goes to S, not to the partnership. Partnership asset will not
change.
2. The purchase requires a transfer of capital from S to L for P10,000.
3. The total partners’ equity of P50,000 will not change although there will be a
change in the composition of the partners’ equity.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 1: Transfer of interest is equal to the amount paid.
Entry:
S, Capital 10,000
L, Capital 10,000
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 2: Transfer of interest is not equal to the amount paid.
Suppose that in the above case, L pays P15,000 for half of S’s
interest of P10,000.
• Same entry with case 1.
• Payment does not affect the partnership assets since the amount
paid goes to the selling partner.
Entry:
S, Capital 10,000
L, Capital 10,000
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Asset Revaluation
• The partners may agree to revalue the assets before
admission of a new partner.
• Upward and downward adjustment of partnership assets
should affect only the existing partners.
• Upward adjustment should be made to increase asset and
partners’ equity.
• Downward adjustment should be made to decrease asset and
partners’ equity.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 3. Asset Revaluation (Upward adjustment)
Refer to case 2. L agrees to pay P15,000 for half of S interest but the
assets must first be revalued. It the amount of the revaluation is not
given, it can be inferred from the amount the new partner is willing to
give.
Analysis:
1. Since the payment is higher by P5,000 than the book value of the
interest being purchased of P10,000, the implication is that the assets of
the partnership are undervalued. Asset valuation will be based on the
amount that the new partner is willing to pay.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 3. Asset Revaluation (Upward adjustment)
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 3. Asset Revaluation (Upward adjustment)
Analysis:
2. Adjust the existing partners’ equity by P25,000. Partners’
equity will be P75,000 after the revaluation with S’s adjusted
capital as P30,000. This will now be the basis for transferring
capital to L. Since the amount to be paid is P15,000 was used as
the basis for revaluation, it will also be the amount for the transfer
of interest.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 3. Asset Revaluation (Upward adjustment)
Analysis:
3. Partners’ Equity after the revaluation will not change anymore in
recognizing transfer of capital from the selling partner to the buying
partner.
Purchase an Interest from Existing Partners
Case 3. Asset Revaluation (Upward adjustment)
Analysis:
3. Assume that the land is the asset to be revalued, two entries will be required:
Land 25,000
A, Capital 15,000
S, Capital 10,000

S, Capital 15,000
L, Capital 15,000

• Revaluation must be agreed upon by the partners and cannot be implied.


Revised Profit and Loss Ratio
It is necessary that the articles of co-partnership be redrawn on
consideration of the admission of a new partner. Likewise, a new
management as to managerial functions, division of profit and loss
and the inclusion of the new partner are to be considered.
Investing in a Partnership
• New agreement as to managerial functions, division of profit
and loss and the inclusion of the new partner are to be
considered.
• Current profit and loss ratio should be revised accordingly based
on the percent of interest the existing partner is selling to the
buyer if revision was not considered.
Investing in a Partnership
A new partner may be admitted by investing assets in the existing
partnership.

The following rules should be applied:


1. Since the new partner is contributing to the partnership, the
transaction is between the new partner and the partnership.
2. Contribution increases the partnership assets and the
partner’s equity.
Investing in a Partnership
Case 4: New partner’s investment is equal to his capital credit,
total contributions is equal to agreed or revised equity.
Assuming L will invest P25,000 cash and will be given a 1/3
interest in the partnership agreed equity of P75,000.
The analysis will affect the following accounts in this manner:
1. Partnership assets and partners’ equity will increase by
P25,000,

Investing in a Partnership
Case 5: New partner’s contribution is equal to his capital credit. Current
partners agree to revalue the asset.
Lucas will invest P30,000 cash for a 30% interest in the net assets of the
partnership. Partnership assets should be revalued first by P20,000.

1. The partnership asset will increase twice: for the revaluation and for the cash
investment .
2. Asset revaluation should be recorded first before admitting the new partner. It
should be based on the agreed profit ratio for the existing partners or the
capital ratio if there is no agreed profit ratio.
3. New partner’s equity is equal to what was invested.

• Excess contribution called bonus capital will be created to the existing
partners’ capital account.
• Bonus from the existing partners may be given to the new partner to
entice the new partner who has exceptional talents.
• The capital credit of the new partner will be higher that the amount of
contribution. The excess capital is taken from the capital of the existing
partners and given to the new partner.

Bonus capital for the existing partners.
L will invest P30,000 cash for a 25% interest in the net assets of the partnership.
A bonus of P10,000 will be given to the existing partners.
1. Partnership Asset and Partner’s Equity will increase because of the cash
investment.
2. Total contributed capital should be equal to total agreed or revised equity.

retirement data to be used as a basis for settlement. To be taken
into consideration are the following: asset revaluation and profit
distribution.
2. Revaluation will affect all partners.

updated for profit or loss share through estimation.
4. The drawing account of the retiring partner must also be closed
against the capital account.

owned by A, B, and C showed as at December 31, 2021 the partners’
capital balances at P400,000, P500,000, and P300,000
respectively. They share profits and losses at the agreed ratio of 5:3:2
respectively. C decided to leave the business and withdraw his
interest over the partnership on June 30, 2022. Together with his
other partners, they agreed not to close the books and estimate the
share of C based on the average estimated net income of the
partnership for the last three years which was P270,000. C made a
cash withdrawal of P15,000 just before he decided to retire.
