X, Y, and Z are partners liquidating their business with total assets of 5 million and liabilities of 1.85 million. If X and Y are insolvent while Z is solvent, Z will cover the capital deficiencies allowing for cash distribution to X and Y after settling liabilities. If all partners are insolvent, the available cash will be used to pay creditors, resulting in a loss for them as the cash is insufficient to cover all debts.
