The document discusses partnership dissolution and the admission of new partners. It provides examples of admitting a new partner through the purchase of interest from existing partners or through direct investment in the partnership. When a partner purchases interest, journal entries debit the selling partners' capital accounts and credit the new partner's capital account. When a partner invests, their capital account is credited for the amount invested, with any difference allocated to existing partners. The document provides multiple examples and requirements to practice different partnership admission scenarios.

1. PARTNERSHIP DISSOLUTION
ANNA MAE MAGBANUA, CPA

2. What is dissolution?

3. DISSOLUTION
• Dissolution is the change in the relation of the partners
caused by any partner ceasing to be associated in the
carrying on of the business, or an entry or additional partner
• Major considerations:
– Admission of a partner
– Withdrawal, retirement or death of a partner
– Incorporation of a partnership
• Note that the admission of a new partner requires all the
consent of the other partners

4. What is this?
• A new partner is admitted to the partnership. This is a personal
transaction between and among the partners, therefore, any
consideration paid or received is not recorded in the
partnership books.
• A new capital account is established for the new partner and a
corresponding decrease is made on the capital accounts of the
selling partners.

5. PURCHASE of interest in the partnership
• This is a personal transaction between and among the partners,
therefore, any consideration paid or received is not recorded in
the partnership books.
• A new capital account is established for the new partner and a
corresponding decrease is made on the capital accounts of the
selling partners.

15. INVESTMENT in the partnership
• Instead of purchasing interest from the existing partners, a new
partner may be admitted by investing directly in the business.
• This is a transaction between the incoming partner and the
partnership, therefore, any consideration paid shall be recorded
in the partnership books.
• Two things may happen:
– The new partner's capital account is credited at an amount equal to the
fair value of his investment; or
– The new partner's capital account is credited at an amount greater
than or less than the fair value of his investment

The following are the capital account balances and profit
or loss ratios of the partners in AB Partnership as of July
