8. First: The formation of the partnership To form the partnership, each partner has to pay his contribution (capital) according to the contract …How?? The partner can pay his capital using one of the following methods: 1- Cash. 2- Non- cash assets. ( assets or assets &liabilities)

9. (1) Presenting the contribution in Cash: If the partner pays his share in the capital in cash, we prepare the following entry: Dr Cr xCash x Partner '‘…'‘, Capital

10. Example (1) On 1/1/2012 (A) &(B )agreed to form a general partnership with total capital $100000. If you know that: 1- The share of partner A in the capital is $60000 and the partner B is the rest. 2- Each partner will pay his share in cash. Required: prepare the journal entry to record the formation of the partnership. Solution The total capital = 100000 The capital of A = 60000 So, the capital of B = 100000 - 60000 = 40000

11. Dr Cr Cash 100000 Partner ''A'‘, Capital 60000 Partner '‘B'‘, Capital 40000 So, the entry is:

12. 2) Presenting the contribution as a Group of Assets : In this case all the assets presented should be recorded according to the fair value (market value). In this case we should compare between the partner’s share in the capital and the fair value of the presented assets. Here,there are the following cases: 1- The partner’s share in the capital = the fair value of the assets (no cash paid or received) 2- The partner’s share in the capital does not equal the fair value of the assets ( The partner should pay or receive the difference in cash) 3- If the partner’s share in the capital is not determined, here, the capital of the partner will equal the fair value of the presented assets.

13. (Example(2 On 1 January 2011, A and B agreed to form a partnership with a total capital of $ 400,000. If you know that: 1- Partner A paid 25% of the capital in cash. 2- Partner B’ s share in the capital 75% and he presented the following assets : Car 50,000 Inventory 70,000 Equipment 180,000 Required Prepare the journal entries to record the formation of the partnership.

14. Solution The total capital = 400000 The capital of A = 400000 * 25% =100000 So, the capital of B = 400000 - 100000 = 300000 or = 400000 * 75% =300000 1) Partner A : He paid cash,so the entry is : Dr Cr 100000Cash 100000 Partner '‘A'‘, Capital

15. 2) Partner B: He presented assets and the value of them = 50000+70000 + 180000 = 300000 His share in capital = 300000 So, there is no difference and the entry is: Dr Cr Car 50,000 Inventory 70,000 Equipment 180,000 Partner '‘B'‘, Capital 300000
