Partner A and B each own 60% and 40% of the partnership respectively. The partnership has total assets of $710,000 consisting of cash, accounts receivable, inventory, and buildings, with total liabilities of $110,000. Partner A's capital account is $330,000 but based on their 60% ownership, their minimum required capital is $405,000, so Partner A needs to contribute an additional $75,000 in cash to the partnership.

b. Assume that a partner’s capital shall be increased accordingly by contributing additional
cash to bring the partner’s capital balance proportionate to their profit or loss ratio. Which partner should provide additional cash and how much is the additional cash contribution? A’s Capital 330,000 Divided by: Profit(loss) sharing ratio of A 60% Total 550,000 Multiply by: B’s Profit loss sharing ratio of B 40% Minimum capital requirement of B 220,000 B’s Capital 270,000 Deficiency on B’s Contribution -
