Question 3:

On dissolution, how you deal with partner’s loan if it appears on the

(a) Assets side of the Balance Sheet

(b) Liabilities side of the Balance Sheet

Answer:

a) If partner's loan appears on the assets side of the Balance Sheet then it implies that the partner has taken loan from the business and is liable to pay back to the business. In such case, the loan amount is transferred to his capital account. Thus the accounting entry will be:

Partner’s Capital A/c

Dr.

 

To Partner's Loan A/c

 

(Partner's loan transferred to Partner's Capital Account)

 

 

b) If partner's loan appears on the liabilities side of the Balance Sheet then it implies that the partner has forwarded loan to the firm and the firm is liable to pay back the amount to the partner. In such case, partner's loan is paid off after paying all the external liabilities. The partner's loan is not transferred to the Realisation Account, in fact, it is paid in cash. The following accounting entry is passed.-

Firm’s Debts

Partner’s Private Debts

Liability

All the partners of the firm are jointly and separately liable for the firm's debt.

Settlement of debts by private assets

If the firm's debt exceeds the firm’s assets, then private assets of the partners may be utilised to pay back the firm's debt, if only  the partner's  private assets exceeds his/her own private debts.

Private debts are settled against the partner's private assets. Subsequently, if any surplus exists then this may be utilised to settle the firm's debts.

Settlement of debts by firm's assets

Firm's debts are settled against the firm’s assets. Subsequently, if any surplus exists, then this is distributed among the partners.

After paying off firm's debts, the surplus of firm's assets, if any is distributed among the partners.  The personal share of the partner in this surplus can be utilised to settle his/her own private debts.

Question 1:

Explain the process of dissolution of a partnership firm?

Answer:

Dissolution of partnership firm implies discontinuation of the business of the partnership firm. According to the Section 39 of Partnership Act, dissolution of partnership between all the partners of a firm is called dissolution of partnership firm. Dissolution involves winding up of business, disposal of assets and paying off the liabilities and distribution of any surplus or borne of loss by the partners of the firm. As per the Partnership Act 1932, a partnership firm may be dissolved in the following manners:

1) Dissolution by Agreement

A firm may be dissolved with:

a) the consent of all the partners, or

b) the contract between the partners

 

2) Compulsory Dissolution

A firm may be dissolved by:

a) the adjudication of all the partners or of all partners but one as insolvent

b) happening of an event or change in government policies that make the business unlawful.

 

3) Dissolution on the happening of Certain Contingencies

Subject to the contract between the partners, a firm is dissolved

a) if formed for a specific period then on the expiry of the period

b) if formed for a specific purpose then on completion of the purpose

c) on the death of partner/partners

d) on insolvency of a partner/partners

 

4) Dissolution by Notice

If partnership is at will then the partnership firm is dissolved if any partner giving notice in writing to all the other partners expressing his/her intention to dissolve the firm.

 

5) Dissolution by Court

The court may order to dissolve a partnership firm when:

a) a partner becomes insane or lunatic.

b) a partner becomes permanently incapable of performing the duties.

c)  a partner is guilty of misconduct and affects the business activities.

d) a partner repeatedly breaks the terms of agreement .

e) a partner transfers his interest to a third party without the consent of  other partners.

f) a business persistently incurs losses.

 

Besides these above mentioned circumstances, a partnership firm may be dissolved if the court at any stage finds dissolution of the firm to be justified and inevitable.

 

The following are the rules of settlement of accounts on dissolution as per the Section 48 of Partnership Act 1932.

 

1. Application of Assets: Amount received by the realisation (sale) of the assets shall be used in the following order:

a) First of all the external liabilities and expenses are to be paid.

b) Then, all loans and advances forwarded by the partners should be paid.

c) Then, the capital of each partners should be paid off. If there remains any surplus after the payment of (a), (b) and (c), then it should be distributed among the partners in their profit sharing ratio.

 

2. Treatment of Loss: In case of loss and any deficiency of capital, then this should be paid in the following order:

a) First these should be adjusted against firm's profits.

b) Then, against the total capital of the firm.

c) If still there exists any loss and deficiencies, then it should be borne by all the partners individually in their profit sharing ratio.

Question 2:

What is a Realisation Account?

Answer:

On dissolution of a firm, all the books of account are closed, all assets are sold and all liabilities are paid off. In order to record the sale of assets and discharge of liabilities, a nominal account is opened named Realisation Account. The main purpose to open Realisation Account is to ascertain the profit or loss due to the realisation of assets and liabilities. Realisation profit (if credit side > debit side) or realisation loss (if debit side > credit side) are transferred to the Partner's Capital Account in their profit sharing ratio.

 

Concisely, following are the important objectives of preparing Realisation Account.

1) To close all the books of account.

2) To record transactions relating to the sale of assets and discharge of liabilities.

3) To determine profit or loss due to the realisation of assets and liabilities.

Question 4:

How deficiency of creditors is paid off?

Answer:

At the time of dissolution of a firm, the amount received from the sale of firm's assets are utilised to pay the creditors. If the sale receipts fall short, then partners' private assets are used for settling the dues of the firm's creditors. Even if some portion of the amount due to creditors is left unpaid, then there arises deficiency of creditors. There are generally two procedures to be followed to treat the deficiency of creditors.

1. Transferring deficiency to the Deficiency Account

2. Transferring deficiency to the Partner's Capital Account

In the former procedure, a separate account is prepared for the firm's creditors. Then in order to ascertain the firm's cash balance accruing from the sale of the firm's assets and partners' private assets, Cash Account is prepared. After ascertaining the cash availability with the firm, the creditors and the external liabilities are paid proportionately (partially). The remaining unpaid creditors or the deficiency is transferred to the Deficiency Account.

In the latter procedure, creditors are paid by the cash available with the firm including the partners individual contribution. The deficiency or unpaid creditors amount is transferred to the Partner's Capital Account. Thus the deficiency of the creditors is borne by all the partners in their profit sharing ratio. If any partner becomes insolvent and is unable to bear the deficiency, then this will be regarded as a capital loss to the firm. If the partnership deed is silent about such capital loss in the facet of insolvency of a partner, then according to the Garner v/s Murray case, such capital loss need to be borne by the solvent partners in their capital ratio.

Question 9:

All partners wish to dissolve the firm. Yastin, a partner wants that her loan of Rs 2,00,000 must be paid off before the payment of capitals to the partners. But, Amart, another partner wants that the capitals must be paid before the payment of Yastin’s loan. You are required to settle the conflict giving reasons.

Answer:

As per section 48 of Partnership Act 1932, at the time of dissolution, loans and advances from the partners must be paid off before the settlement of their capital accounts. Hence, Yastin’s argument is correct that her loan of Rs 2,00,000 must be paid off before the payment of partners' capital.
