Partnership Liquidation Question#6
Q1. Silverio, Domingo, Reyes, and Pastor are partners, sharing earnings in the ratio of
3/21, 4/21, 6/21 and 8/21, respectively. The balances of their capital accounts on
December 31, 20x5 are as follows:
Silverio P 1,000
Domingo 25,000
Reyes 25,000
Pastor 9,000
P 60,000
The partners decide to liquidate, and they accordingly convert the non-cash assets into
P23,200 of cash. After paying the liabilities amounting to P3,000, they have P22,200 to
divide. Assume that a debit balance in any partner's capital is uncollectible. After the
P22,200 was divided, the capital balance of Domingo was
a. P3,200 c. P 4,500
