o Schedule of safe payment
 Compute the free and restricted interest to absorb losses from:
a. Non-cash assets still on hand
b. Unpaid Partner’s deficiency
c. Cash withheld for future liquidation expenses
o Steps
1. Form the table with components:
a. Cash
b. Non cash
c. Liabilities
d. Loans to or loans from partners
e. Capital balances of each partners
2. Record sale of assets and distribute to partners based on P/L
a. Increase: Cash

o Loans from partner = May utang si partner kay partnership
b. Add the non-cash assets and cash withheld for future liquidation
expenses then deduct by the sum of capital balances
c. In case of deficiency, divide the deficiency to solvent partners’ P/L the
deduct it to remaining capital balance

o Cannot be immediately recovered because of insufficiency or
restricted cash
e. Ending balance = Free Interest
o Partner’s interest that can be immediately recovered or paid in
cash
 Cash Priority Program
o Steps
1. Record capital balance of each partner + loan balances = Total partners’
interest
2. Divide total partners’ capital to P/L ratio to get Loss Absorption Balance
3. Subtract the highest Lost Absorption Balance to second highest to get first prio.
4. Determine payment to the first prio partner with formula:
Cash Prio Payment ¿=Excess LAB∗profit ∨lossratio
5. Repeat step 3 and 4 for all remaining partners until all Lost Absorption Balance
are equal
6. Prepare schedule of payment based on who has priority for each payment
a. Note: Must cover 1st prio’s priority payment first before the next priority

Corporate Bankruptcy
 Petition for rehabilitation or liquidation
o Done by officers
o 2/3 vote of its voting shares
 Process of Corporate Liquidation
o Sell all non-cash assets @ NRV
o Pay the creditors
 Types of assets
o Assets pledged to fully secured creditors
 Secured assets is greater than or equal to the debt or creditor
o Assets pledged to partially secured creditors
 Secured assets is less than the debt or creditor
o Free assets
 Used to cover other claims of creditors
 Types of creditors
o Fully secured creditors
 Assets is more than liabilities
o Partially secured creditors
 Assets is less than liabilities
o Unsecured creditors with priority

 Acts as fully secured
 Sure to be paid
 Legally required to pay them
 Examples:
 Salaries/wages
 Taxes
 Liquidation expenses
 Trustees fee’s
o Unsecured creditors without priority
 No assets secured
o NOTE: If classification of PRINCIPLE would be the same with the INTEREST
 If notes payable to bank is partially secured, then the interest-bank is also
partially secured
 Process in solving Corporate Liquidation problems
o Know the total NRV of assets
 How much is the total cash that can be used to pay the creditors
 NOTE: if not NRV of prepaid expenses are not given, assume it is ZERO or 0
 NOTE: Right-off goodwill, enter it as ZERO or 0
o Compute for the net free assets
 Assets available to your unsecured creditors without priority
Total Assets at NRV
Less: Total Fully Secured Creditors
Total Partially Secured Creditors
Total Unsecured Creditors with priority
Net Free Assets
 NOTE: If assets pledged to fully secured creditors > Fully secured creditors, then
the difference would be part of unsecured creditors without priority
 NOTE: Unsecured part of the partially secured creditors is part of unsecured
without priority
 NOTE: If liability is not categorized as part of unsecured with priority, then it is
part of unsecured without priority
o Compute for the recovery percentage
Net free assets
 Recovery Percentage=
Total unsecured creditors
 NOTE: total unsecured creditors include both with and without priority
o Answer the questions being asked:
 Estimated deficiency to unsecured creditors
= Net Free * (1 – Recovery Percentage)
= Total Assets at NRV – Total liabilities
 Payment to partially secured creditors
= Secured portion + (unsecured portion * Recovery Percentage)
 Payment to unsecured without priority
= Total unsecured creditors without priority * Recovery percentage

 Solutions for problems


1. How much was the cash balance transferred to the receiver?
= Assets to be realized + Net income – Liab to be realized
 Para mas madaling matandaan:
 Transferred to receiver = To be – To be + Net Income
 Net income = Retained earnings – capital stocks
2. How much was the cash balance transferred back to the debtor corporation
= Liab not realized + (Net Income – Net Profit) – assets not realized
 Para mas madaling matandaan:
 Transferred back = Not – Not + (Net Income – Net Profit)
 Net profit is supplementary credit – supplementary charges

figures
2. Analyze if the Joint operation entry is a debit or a credit
 Debit = loss ; Credit = gain
3. Divide the profit or loss with the operators by P/L or equally if P/L is not given
4. Distribute the profit or loss to the operators
 Operator’s balance in the entry + or – gain or loss
o To determine the profit or loss of a Joint Venture:
Sale XXX
Less: COGS (XXX)
Freight In (XXX)
OpEx (XXX)
Profit or Loss XXX

Note: When given “x/x of the goods”, multiply “x/x” to COGS and Freight in

o Steps when solving problems related to total shares of operator and Accountability
where one operator took over unsold merchandise and with bonus after bonus in
venture completion
1. Get the total debit or credit of joint op before the taking over of unsold merch
2. Add the total debit or credit with the amount taken over by the operator
3. Make entry for the taking over
Operator XXX
Joint operator XXX
4. If given entries, combine the entries with the entries for taking over
 NOTE: when kulang, use the operator not included in the entries given
as a balancing figure
5. Determine amount of bonus
 Bonus before bonus
= Net Income * Bonus Rate
NOTE: Net Income = credit amount of Joint Operations in step 4
 Bonus after Bonus
 Bonus = Bonus Rate * (Net Income – Bonus)
NOTE: Net Income = credit amount of Joint Operations in step 4
Use algebra in solving (Transpose values)
6. When given bonus after bonus, deduct Bonus from Net Income
7. Distribute the remaining Net Income to partners based on P/L or equally if P/L is
not given
8. Add the bonus to the operator with bonus to get Total Share
9. Compute for Accountability or Equity

problem
 Ending balance is to be remitted
o NOTE: look at the problem if may advances or returns
o NOTE: problem may specify that a specific amount was not
remitted, subtract that amount to the ending balance of the to
be remitted para malaman kung magkano yung remitted.
3. When asked for Consignment out balance and Profit
 Form the table
Expenses Total (units) Unsold (units) Returned (units) Sold (units)
Consignor
Cost
Freight

Consignee
Cartage in
Delivery and install.
Commission
Freight Returns

TOTALS
 Consignor: Divide the total amounts to the number of units for each
category to know what portion of the total belongs to unsold, returned,
and sold
 Consignee: Must know to where does the expense are allocated to
o Cartage: Divide by the units
o Delivery: Depends on the items sold, so allocate to sold
o Commission: Depends on sold, so allocate to sold
o Freight returns: Depends on the returned items, so allocate to
returned
 Get the totals to get Consignment out balance
 Profit = Sales – Sold balance – expenses related to returns
4. When given a follow up question on consignment such as additional sold items
 Make a new Account sales
o Remember to divide the expenses to the number of shipped
units by consignor to get the per unit cost, then multiply that to
the additional sold items
 When computing for consignment out balance
o Note to match this with the unsold balance, where dapat
bawasan mo yung charges sa unsold and then deduct that
amount sa expenses sa additional sold items
 Kasi need na mag matching principle
 This is deferred expenses
 When computing for profit
o Same formula pero multiple sales price with the additional
number of sold items
o NOTE: hindi na need sama si expenses related to returns kasi
nabawas na yun sa nauna computation
