Partnership dissolution refers to the change in the relationship of partners, marking the end of their joint business operations, while winding up is the process of settling partnership affairs post-dissolution. Dissolution can occur due to various reasons such as the admission or retirement of partners, but does not necessarily lead to liquidation, which involves terminating business operations and distributing assets. The document outlines the accounting implications of admitting new partners, including the treatment of capital interests and asset revaluation.

partners decide to recognize any revaluation of assets before the admission of the
new partner.

the selling old partner. No gain or loss will be recorded in the books of the
partnership because such gain or loss from the transaction is a personal gain or

Nese 7: Revaluation of assets upon admission of a new partner
Under this scheme, the excess amount paid over the book value acquired will be
capitalized to determine the revaluation of assets. The effect of the asset
revaluation is carried to the capital of the old partners. The adjusted capital of the
old partners will be the basis in determining the interest of the new partner.
‘The following s under this scheme are as follows:
Step 1. Determiy new capital of the partnership by dividing the amount paid
by the, x to its interest.
—
Step 2. Get the difference of the old capital of the partnership by the amount
computed in step 1.
(New capital of the partnership - Old capital of the partnership)
Note: Ifthe new capital (implied capital) is greater than the old capital there is a
under reval assets. However, ifit is less than the old capital there is an
overvaluation’of assets.
Step 3. Allocate the difference computed in step 2 to the old partners’ capital
account using the profit and loss agreement of the old partners.
Step 4. Adjust the capital of the old partners by adding the amount computed in
step 3 to their old capital account.
‘Step 5. Compute the interest of the new partner base on the adjusted capital
account of the old partners computed in step 4,

MISSION OF NEW PARTNER BY INVESTMENT
The admission by investment is one in which the new partner transfers cash or
other assets into the partnership. Thus, the net assets (capital) and the total assets
of the partnerships increase by the amount contributed which said contribution
becomes the new source of capital of the partnership. Admission by investment is
a transaction between the new partner and the partnership business.

2 Negative asset revaluation (over) - this method decreases the assets and the

method should be used because it conforms to the cost principle of valuing
