"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
CHAPTER 2PARTNERSHIP OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL REPORTING
PARTNERS’ EQUITY IN ASSETS CONTRASTED WITH SHARE IN PROFITS OR LOSSES
The basis on which profits or losses are shared is a matter of agreement among the partners and may not necessarily be the same as their capital contribution ratio. The equity of a partner in the net assets of the partnership should be distinguished from a partner’s share in profit or losses.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
FACTORS TO CONSIDER IN ARRIVING AT A PLAN FOR DIVIDING PROFITS OR LOSSES
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
OTHER FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED:1. Partners having
considerable financial resources, hence, strong credit standing.
2. A partner who is well known in a profession or an industry may contributed immensely to the success of the partnership although he may not participate actively in the operations of the partnership.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
PERFORMANCE METHODMany partnerships use profit and loss sharing arrangements
that give some weight to th specific performance of each partner to provide incentives to perform well. This allocation of profits to a partner on the basis of performance is frequently referred to as a BONUS.
Examples of the use of performance criteria are:1. Chargeable hours2. Total billings3. Write-offs4. Promotional and civic activities5. Profits in excess of specified levels
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
RULES FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFITS OR LOSSESBased on the legal provisions of the Civil Code of the Philippines, the following are the rules for the distribution of profits or losses1. PROFITS
a. The profits will be divided according to partners’ agreementb. If there is no agreement:
As to capitalist partners, the profits shall be divided according to their capital contributions (according to the ratio of original capital investments or in its absence, the ratio of capital balances at the beginning of the year)
As to industrial partners (if any), such share as may be just and equitable under the circumstances, provided, that the industrial partner shall receive such share before the capitalist partnes shall divide the profits.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
RULES FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF PROFITS OR LOSSES (CONT’D)
2. LOSSESa. The losses will be divided according to partners’ agreementb. If there is no agreement as to distribution of losses butthere is an
agreement as to profits, the losses shall be distributed according to the profit sharing ratio
c. In the absence of any agreement: As to capitalist partners, the losses shall be divided according to
their capital contributions (according to the ratio of original capital investments or in its absence, the ratio of capital balances at the beginning of the year).
As to purely industrial partners (if there’s any), shall not be liable for any losses.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
CORRECTION OF PRIOR PERIOD ERRORS
Per International Accounting Stadards (IAS) No. 8, Accounting Policies , Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, prior period errors are omissions from and other misstatements of the entity’s financial statements for one or more prior periods that are discovered in the current period. Errors may occur as a result of mathematical mistakes in applying accounting policies, misintepretation of facts, fraud or oversights. Examples include errors in the estimation of depreciation, errors in inventory valuation and omission of accruals of revenue and expenses.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT OR LOSSES BASED ON PARTNER’S AGREEMENTThe partners may agree on any of the following scheme in distributing
profits or losses:1. Equally or in other agreed ratio2. Based on partners’ capital contributions
a. Ratio of original capital investmentsb. Ratio of capital balances at the beginning of the yearc. Ratio of capital balances at the end of the yeard. Ratio of average capital balances
3. By allowing interest on partners’ capital and the balance in an agreed ratio
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
DISTRIBUTION OF PROFIT OR LOSSES BASED ON PARTNER’S AGREEMENT (CONT’D)4. By allowing salaries to partners and the balance in an agreed
ratio5. By allowing bonus to the managing partner based on profit and
the balance in an agreed ratio6. By allowing salaries, interest on partners’ capital, bonus to the
managing partner and the balance in an agreed ratio (combination of 3 to 5)
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)

ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEM
The following series of illustrations are based on the figures obtained from the Medina and Matero Partnership which had a profit of P300,00 for the year ended Dec. 31, 2009, the first year of operations. The partnership contractprovided that each partner may withdraw P5,000 on the last day of each month; both partners did so during the year. The drawings are recorded by debits to the partners’ drawing accounts and shall not be considered in division of profit or loss. It is the intention of the partners that each partner’s share in the profit or loss be either credited or debited to the drawing account.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." (Mahatma Gandhi)
ILLUSTRATIVE PROBLEM(CONT’D)Leopoldo Medina invested P400,000 on January 1, 2009 and an additional P100,000
on April 1. Challoner Matero invested P800,000 on January 1 and withdrew P50,000 on July 1. These transactions and events are summarized in the following capital, drawing and income summary ledger accounts:
