Partnership Operations
Learning Objectives
1. State the items that affect the division of a partnership’s profits
or losses among the partners.
2. Compute for the share of a partner in the partnership's profit
or loss.
Division of profits and losses
‘The partners share in partnership profits or losses in accordance
with their partnership agreement.
Art. 1797 of the Philippine Civil Code provides the
following additional rules in the profit or loss sharing of partners:
* If only the share of each partner in the profits has been agreed
upon, the share of each in the losses shall be in the same,
proportion.
« In the absence of stipulation, the share of each partner in the
profits and losses shall be in proportion to what he may have
contributed, but the industrial partner shall not be liable for
the losses. As for the profits, the industrial partner shall
receive such share as may be just and equitable under the
circumstances. If besides his services he has contributed
capital, he shall also receive a share in the profits in proportion
to his capital.
>» An industrial partner is one who contributes services to the
partnership rather than cash or other non-cash assets.
A capitalist partner is one who contributes cash or other
non-cash assets to the partnership.
A partner who contributes both services and cash or other
non-cash asset is both an industrial and a capitalist
partner.Operations 7
« ©The designation of losses and profits cannot be entrusted to
one of the partners (Art. 1798). A stipulation which excludes one
or more partners from any share in the profits or losses is void
(Art. 1799).
In addition to profit or Joss sharing, the partnership
agreement may also stipulate any of the following:
a. Salaries - normally, an industrial partner receives salary in
addition to his share in the partnership's profits as
compensation for his services to the partnership.
b. Bonuses ~ the managing partner may be entitled to a bonus for
excellent management performance. Unlike for salaries, a
pariner is entitled to a bonus only if the partnership earns
profit. The partner is not entitled to any bonus if the
partnership incurs loss
c. Interest on capital contributions ~ the partnership agreement
may stipulate that capitalist partners are entitled to an annual
interest on their capital contributions.
The items above are normally provided first to the
respective partners and any remaining amount of the profit or loss
is shared among the partners based on their stipulated profit or
loss ratio.
Illustration 1: Salaries
A and B’s partnership agreement provides for annual salary
allowances of P50,000 for A and P30,000 for B. The salary
allowances are to be withdrawn throughout the period and are to
be debited to the partners’ respective drawings accounts.

An algebraic equation is developed from the two choices above
Let: X = profit after salaries and bonus
10%X = bonus after bonus
Choice #1 Choice #2
8,000 salary = 5,000salary + 10%X
X is computed from the equation above as follows:
8,000 = 5,000 + 10%X
10%X = 8,000 - 5,000
X= 3,000 / 10%
X= 30,000

If the partnership's profit is P58,000, it does not matter
whether Mr. A chooses to receive a salary of P8,000 or a salary of

The bonus and the interest on capital are not yet deducted
from the profit figure given in the problem. Unlike for monthly
salaries which are withdrawn periodically (i.e. monthly basis),
interests and bonuses are normally computed only at year-end.

recognized during the period.
