The partnership law (article 1767) embodies the definition of partnership. It states that “by the contract of
partnership, two or more persons bind themselves to contribute money, property, or industry to a common fund with
the intention of dividing the profits among themselves.”

Characteristics of a Partnership. It is an unincorporated association of two or more individuals to carry on a


business for profit. Many small businesses, including retail, service, and professional practitioners, are organized as
partnerships.

A partnership agreement may be oral or written. However, to avoid misunderstandings, the partnership agreement
should be in writing. The agreement should identify the partners; their respective business-related duties and
responsibilities; how income will be shared; the criteria for additional investments and withdrawals; and the
guidelines for adding partners, the withdrawal of a partner, and liquidation of the partnership. For income tax
purposes, the partnership files an information return only. Each partner shares in the net income or loss of the
partnership and includes this amount on his/her own tax return.

Limited life. The life of a partnership may be established as a certain number of years by the agreement. If no
such agreement is made, the death, inability to carry out specific responsibilities, bankruptcy, or the desire of a
partner to withdraw automatically terminates the partnership. Every time a partner withdraws or is added, a new
partnership agreement is required if the business will continue to operate as a partnership. With proper provisions,
the partnership's business may continue and the termination or withdrawal of the partnership will be a
documentation issue that does not impact ongoing operations of the partnership.

Mutual agency. In a partnership, the partners are agents for the partnership. As such, one partner may legally
bind the partnership to a contract or agreement that appears to be in line with the partnership's operations. As most
partnerships create unlimited liability for its partners, it is important to know something about potential partners
before beginning a partnership. Although partners may limit a partner's ability to enter into contracts on the
company's behalf, this limit only applies if the third party entering into the contract is aware of the limitation. It is the
partners' responsibility to notify third parties that a particular partner is limited in his or her ability to enter into
contracts.

Unlimited liability. Partners may be called on to use their personal assets to satisfy partnership debts when the
partnership cannot meet its obligations. If one partner does not have sufficient assets to meet his/her share of the
partnership's debt, the other partners can be held individually liable by the creditor requiring payment. A partnership
in which all partners are individually liable is called a general partnership. A limited partnership has two classes
of partners and is often used when investors will not be actively involved in the business and do not want to risk
their personal assets. A limited partnership must include at least one general partner who maintains unlimited
liability. The liability of other partners is limited to the amount of their investments. Therefore, they are called limited
partners. A limited partnership usually has LLP in its name.

Ease of formation. Other than registration of the business, a partnership has few requirements to be formed.

Transfer of ownership. Although it is relatively easy to dissolve a partnership, the transfer of ownership, whether
to a new or existing partner, requires approval of the remaining partners.

Management structure and operations. In most partnerships, the partners are involved in operating the
business. Their regular involvement makes critical decisions easier as formal meetings are not required to get
approval before action can be taken. If the partners agree on a change in strategy or structure, or approve a
purchase of needed equipment, no additional approvals are needed.

Relative lack of regulation. Most governmental regulations and reporting requirements are written for
corporations. Although the number of sole proprietors and partnerships exceeds the number of corporations, the
level of sales and profits generated by corporations are much greater.

Number of partners. The informality of decision making in a partnership tends to work well with a small number of
partners. Having a large number of partners, particularly if all are involved in operating the business, can make
decisions much more difficult.

Partnership Accounting. Except for the number of partners' equity accounts, accounting for a partnership is the
same as accounting for a sole proprietor. Each partner has a separate capital account for investments and his/her
share of net income or loss, and a separate withdrawal account. A withdrawal account is used to track the amount
taken from the business for personal use. The net income or loss is added to the capital accounts in the closing
process. The withdrawal account is also closed to the capital account in the closing process.
Asset contributions to partnerships

When a partnership is formed or a partner is added and contributes assets other than cash, the partnership
establishes the net realizable or fair market value for the assets. For example, if the Walking Partners company
adds a partner who contributes accounts receivable and equipment from an existing business, the partnership
evaluates the collectibility of the accounts receivable and records them at their net realizable value. An existing
valuation reserve account (usually called allowance for doubtful accounts) would not be transferred to the
LYCEUM OF THE PHILIPPINES UNIVERSITY
ACCOUNTANCY REVIEW asa cpa
partnership as the partnership would establish its own reserve account. Similarly, any existing accumulated
depreciation accounts are not assumed by the partnership. The partnership establishes and records the equipment
at its current fair market value and then begins depreciating the equipment over its useful life to the partnership.

The transactions that are usually debited and credited to partner’s capital and drawing accounts are as follows:
Debit Credit
1. For Capital Account 1. For Capital Account
a. Permanent withdrawal of capital a. Original investment
b. Debit balance of the drawing account b. Additional investment
at the end of the period. c. Partner’s share in the profits
c. Partner’s share in the losses 2. For Drawing Account
2. For Drawing Account a. Partnership obligations assumed or paid by
a. Withdrawal of assets by the partner in the partner
the anticipation of income b. Personal funds or claims of partner
b. Partner’s personal indebtedness paid collected and retained by the partnership
or assumed by the partnership. c. Periodic partner’s salaries depending on the
c. Funds or claims of partnership accounting and disbursement procedures
collected and retained by the partner. agreed upon.

Accounting entries to record the formation will depend upon how partnership is formed. A partnership may be
formed in several ways:
1. Formation of partnership for the 1st time
2. Conversion of a sole proprietorship to a partnership
a. A sole proprietor allows another individual, who has no business of his own to join his business
b. Two or more sole proprietors form a partnership
3. Admission of a new partner

Transactions Entries
Debits Credits
Initial Cash investment Cash @ face value Partner’s capital @ face value
Property contribution Property @ fair value Partner’s capital @ fair value
Note: if the property contributed by the partner is used for mortgage, and the partnership assumed the liability of
the partner, such obligations should be deducted in the partner’s capital account.

Recognition of Bonus on Initial Investments.


There is bonus if the capital interest of a partner exceeds his contributed capital, assets of the partnership will not
increase, and however, the capital account of the other partner will decrease in proportion to bonus allocated to the
capital account of the partner who received the bonus.

Illustration ASA decided to form a partnership JKA. The former contributed cash amounting to Php150,000 and
JKA contributed property with a fair market value of Php200,000, cost of Php300,000 and with accumulated
depreciation of Php150,000. However, the partners agreed that each of them have equal interest in the partnership
capital. How would these contributions reflect in the books of the partnership?

the capital balance of Reuben and after the admission of Judah?

Income Allocations

The partnership agreement should include how the net income or loss will be allocated to the partners. If the
agreement is silent, the net income or loss is allocated equally to all partners. As partners an owner of the
business, they do not receive a salary but each has the right to withdraw assets up to the level of his/her capital
account balance. Some partnership agreements refer to salaries or salary allowances for partners and interest on
investments. These are not expenses of the business, they are part of the formula for splitting net income. Many
partners use the components of the formula for splitting net income or loss to determine how much they will
withdraw in cash from the business during the year, in anticipation of their share of net income. If the partnership
uses the accrual basis of accounting, the partners pay federal income taxes on their share of net income,
regardless of how much cash they actually withdraw from the partnership during the year.

Once net income is allocated to the partners, it is transferred to the individual partners' capital accounts through
closing entries. For example, assume AVELACRUZ's Consultants, Inc., a partnership, earned Php 60,000 and their
agreement is that all profits are shared equally. Each of the three partners would be allocated Php 20,000 (Php
60,000 ÷ 3). The journal entry to record this allocation of net income would be:
General Journal
Date Account Title and Description Ref. Debit Credit
20X0
Dec.31 Income Summary 60,000
Avila, Capital 20,000
Abel, Capital 20,000
Dela Cruz, Capital 20,000
Transfer net income to partners' capital accounts

Remember that allocating net income does not mean the partners receive cash. Cash is paid to a partner only
when it is withdrawn from the partnership.

In addition to sharing equally, net income may also be split according to agreed upon percentages (for example,
50%, 40%, and 10%), ratios (2:3:1), or fractions ( 1/3, 1/3, and1/3). Using AVELACRUZ's Consultants net income of
Php 60,000 and a partnership agreement that says net income is shared 50%, 40%, and 10% by its partners, the
portion of net income allocated to each partner is simply the Php 60,000 multiplied by the individual partner's
ownership percentage. Using this information, the split of net income would be:
Avila 50% Php30,000
Abel 40% 24,000
Dela Cruz 10% 6,000
Total net income Php 60,000
Using the 2:3:1 ratio, first add the numbers together to find the total shares (six in this case) and then multiply the
net income by a fraction of the individual partner's share to the total parts (2/6,3/6, and 1/6). Using the three ratios, the
Php 60,000 of AVELACRUZ's Consultants net income would be split as follows:
Avila 2/ 20,000

Abel 3/ 30,000

Dela Cruz 1/ 10,000

Total net income Php 60,000
1/ 1/ 1/
Using the fractions of 3, 3, and 3, the net income would be split equally to all three partners, and each partner's
capital account balance would increase by Php 20,000.

Assume the partnership agreement for AVELACRUZ's Consultants requires net income to be allocated based on
three criteria, including: salary allowances of Php 15,000, Php 12,000, and Php 5,000 for Avila, Abel, and Dela
Cruz, respectively; 10% interest on each partner's beginning capital balance; and any remainder to be split equally.
Using this information, the Php 60,000 of net income would be allocated Php 21,000 to Avila, Php 20,000 to Abel,
and Php 19,000 to Dela Cruz.

Information from the owners' capital accounts shows the following activity:

Capital Investments Withdrawals
Balance During Year During Year
Avila Php 20,000 Php 5,000 Php 15,000
Abel 40,000 5,000 10,000

Net Income Php 21,000 Php 20,000 Php 19,000 Php 60,000
The investments and withdrawal activity did not impact the calculation of net income because they are not part of
the agreed method to allocate net income. As can be seen, once the salary and interest portions are determined,
they are added together to determine the amount of the remainder to be allocated. The remainder may be a
positive or negative amount.

Assume the same facts as above except change net income to Php 39,000. After allocating the salary allowances
of Php 32,000 and interest of Php 16,000, too much net income has been allocated. The difference between the
Php 48,000 allocated and the Php 39,000 net income, a decrease of Php 9,000, is the remainder to be allocated
equally to each partner. These assumptions would result in allocations of net income to Avila of Php 14,000, Abel of
Php 13,000, and Dela Cruz of Php 12,000. The calculations are as shown:
Allocation of Net Income of Php 39,000
