Two or more partners form a partnership for the first time.

Asta and Yuno agreed to form a partnership to be

known as Black Clover Co. The entries to record the
transactions are as follows:

Youth on the Rock | Partnership Accounting

Assumption 1 – Cash Contributions

A. Each partner invested P500,000 cash for an equal interest in the partnership.
Cash 1,000,000
Asta Capital 500,000
Yuno Capital 500,000

B. Asta invested P250,000 cash for one-fourth interest in the partnership.

Cash 1,000,000
Asta Capital 250,000
Yuno Capital 750,000

Total Capital; 250,000/1*4 = 1,000,000

Total Capital (1,000,000) – Asta Capital (250,000) = Yuno Capital (750,000)

Youth on the Rock | Partnership Accounting

Assumption 2 – Cash and Non-cash Contributions

Asta contributed Cash of P140,000 and Inventories costing P150,000 with agreed
value of P160,000. Yuno contributed Machinery costing P200,000 with
Accumulated Depreciation of P55,000 and agreed value of P150,000, for one-third
interest.
Cash 140,000
Inventories 160,000
Machinery 150,000
Asta Capital 300,000
Yuno Capital 150,000
Total Capital = 450,000
Yuno Capital; 150,000/450,000 = 1/3 interest

Youth on the Rock | Partnership Accounting

Assumption 3 – Cash, Non-cash Assets and Industry

Asta contributed Cash of P50,000; Accounts Receivable of P225,000 with Allowance for
Uncollectible Accounts of P75,000 and Machinery costing P230,000 with Accumulated
Depreciation of P40,000 and agreed value of P200,000. Yuno is an industrial partner to
contribute his special skills and talents to the partnership for a one-third interest.

Cash 50,000
Accounts Receivable 225,000
Machinery 200,000
Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts 75,000
Asta Capital 400,000
Yuno is to contribute his services to the partnership for one third interest.

their agreed values or fair market value at the time of
contribution.
2. No Accumulated Depreciation is recorded in the
partnership books.
3. The Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is carried in the

2. Continue using the books of one of the sole proprietors, noting
the following:
a. Adjust the books of the sole proprietor which will be used
as partnership books, and
b. Record the investment of the new partner(s).

equity that each partner will have in
the net assets of the newly formed
partnership.
 Approaches on recording capital share:
Full Investment Approach or Bonus Approach

Oikawa and Iwaizumi agreed to divide initial

partnership capital equally even though Oikawa
contributed P300,000 while Iwaizumi contributed
P200,000 cash into the partnership. Journal entries
to record the investment of the partners under two
approaches are as follows:

Youth on the Rock | Partnership Accounting

Cash 500,000
Oikawa Capital 300,000
Iwaizumi Capital 200,000

b. Bonus approach

B + 0.20B = P 137,143
