7358901/7359031 PRACTICAL ACCOUNTING 2 B. N. CASTUCIANO/R. E. HERMOSILLA ******************************************************************************************* INSTALLMENT ACCOUNTING THE REVENUE RECOGNITION PRINCIPLE The revenue recognition principle dictates that revenue be recognized when the earning process is complete or virtually complete and an exchanged transactions has taken place. Revenue is therefore typically recognized when the firm delivers goods, performs services, or as time passes (as in the case of interest revenue or rent revenue). There are other points in the operating cycle where revenue could be recognized. Revenue could be recognized as production takes place, when production is completed, or as cash is collected from the customer. The following exhibit shows these possibilities. Although the revenue recognition principle sets the general rule, there are circumstances where revenue is recognized prior to or after delivery. These exceptional situations are depicted as follows: EXHIBIT - REVENUE RECOGNITION TIME LINE Production Production Sale Price Begins Complete Delivery Collected PRODUCTION PERIOD INVENTORY PERIOD COLLECTION PERIOD I-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I Percentage of Completed Accretion Revenue Instalment Sales Completion Contract Basis Recognition Method and Method Method Principle Cost Recovery Revenue Recognition (General Rule) Method for Special Products with Immediate Marketability Full

RECOGNITION OF REVENUE AFTER DELIVERY Revenue is generally recognized when goods are delivered or services performed at the point of the sale. In some circumstances, recognition of revenue at the point of sale would be premature because collection of the account receivable is highly uncertain and a reasonable estimate of uncollectibles cannot be made. The instalment sales or cost recovery method is used to determine when revenue is recognized from such sales. It should be noted that there are few situations where both of the above mentioned criteria are met. Generally, a firm will refuse credit to those who are unlikely to pay and past experience will provide a means of estimating uncollectibles. A. The instalment sales method may be used when collectibility is uncertain and it is impossible to estimate bad debt loss. The instalment sales method recognizes gross profit on sales as cash is collected. The method is acceptable for financial accounting purposes when collection is highly uncertain and estimation of bad debts is not possible. Under certain circumstances real estate sales firms and franchise operations are required to use this method. While the instalment method has limited applicability for financial reporting purposes it is used frequently for taxes. 1. Under the instalment sales method proportionate amounts of gross profit are recognized as cash is collected. Credit sales are recorded in the usual way, but adjusting entries at the end of each period defer gross profit to the extent that cash is yet to be collected. The gross profit is recognized as the cash is collected. The steps in using the instalment method are summarized below. Step One: Record credit sale in usual manner debiting Instalment Accounts Receivable and crediting Instalment Sales. Each periods instalment sales will be kept in a separate account. Step Two: Cash collections are recorded in the usual manner debiting Cash and crediting Instalment Accounts Receivable. Step Three: At the end of each period, the cost of goods sold on instalment is removed from the books. The gross profit on the instalment sales is set up as a deferred gross profit

account. The deferred gross profit is recognized as cash is collected. The entry to defer gross profit on instalment sales for the period is Instalment Sales xxx Cost of Instalment Sales xxx Deferred Gross Profit xxx The Deferred Gross Profit account should be reported as a contra accounts receivable account on the balance sheet. In practice, however, it is generally shown as unearned revenue and appears in the liability section of the balance sheet. Step Four: Compute the gross profit percentage for the years instalment sales. Instalment Sales Cost of Instalment Sales Gross Profit Percentage = ----------------------------------------------------Instalment Sales This percentage is calculated every year that instalment sales are made. Step Five: Apply the gross profit percentage for each years instalment sales to cash collected from accounts relating to that year to determine the amount of realized gross profit to be recognized. Gross Profit Recognized For Year 20xx = Gross Profit Percentage For Year X Cash Collected From Instalment Accounts Receivable From Year xx The entry to recognize gross profit earned debits Deferred Gross Profit for Year xx and credits Realized Gross Profit on instalment sales. 2. The seller can generally repossess merchandise sold on instalment, if payments are stopped. Repossession signals uncollectibility of the related account. The account receivable and related deferred gross profit must be written off. The repossessed merchandise should be recorded at it resale or fair market value. There may be a gain or loss on repossession. 3. Interest included in instalment payments should be separated from repayment of the account when interest is charged. Deferred gross profit is realized only on the portion of each payment that is a repayment of the principal amount. Any interest included in the cash collections must be accounted for separately. Interest should be accounted for under the effective interest method.

B. The cost recovery method recognizes no gross profit until the full cost of goods sold has been recovered. The cost recovery method is used when there is a very high degree of uncertainty about collectibility of the account. No gross profit is recognized on the sale until the full cost of goods sold has been recovered. Thereafter, all cash received is reported as gross profit. The cost recovery system is rarely used for financial statement purposes and is not allowed for income taxes. PROBLEMS I.

PRACTICAL ACCOUNTING 2

B. N. CASTUCIANO/R. E. HERMOSILLA LONG-TERM CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS

THE REVENUE RECOGNITION PRINCIPLE The revenue recognition principle dictates that revenue be recognized when the earning process is complete or virtually complete and an exchanged transaction has taken place. Revenue is therefore typically recognized when the firm delivers goods, performs services, or as time passes (as in the case of interest revenue or rent revenue). There are other points in the operating cycle where revenue could be recognized. Revenue could be recognized as production takes place, when production is completed, or as cash is collected from the customer. The following exhibit shows these possibilities. Although the revenue recognition principle sets the general rule, there are circumstances where revenue is recognized prior to or after delivery. These exceptional situations are depicted as follows: EXHIBIT - REVENUE RECOGNITION TIME LINE Production Production Sale Price Begins Complete Delivery Collected PRODUCTION PERIOD INVENTORY PERIOD COLLECTION PERIOD I-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I Percentage of Completed Accretion Revenue Instalment Sales Completion Contract Basis Recognition Method and Method Method Principle Cost Recovery Revenue Recognition (General Rule) Method for Special Products with Immediate Marketability REVENUE RECOGNITION PRIOR TO DELIVERY Full

Firms may justify recognizing revenue prior to delivery when the selling price of the product has been reasonably assured, the firm has a reasonable basis for knowing or estimating the cost of the product, and there is good reason to expect that the price will be collected. Revenue from long-term construction products may be recognized as production takes place (percentage of completion method) or when production is completed (completedcontract method). Revenue is often recognized upon completion of production for special products with immediate marketability (gold, certain agricultural crops). Some accountants argue that revenue should be recognized as products requiring long aging period such as wine, increase in value while in the inventory (accretion basis). Revenue earned on long-term construction projects may be recognized under the percentage of completion or completed-contract methods.
Revenue is recognized prior to delivery for many long-term construction products. A signed contract sets the price for the product, the construction company generally has good estimates of the cost of construction, and there should normally be reasonable assurance that the contract price will be collected. There are two methods in use for recognizing revenue from long-term construction contracts - the percentage of completion method and the completed contract method. The general use is the percentage of completion method. 1. Under the percentage of completion method, revenue is recognized as production takes place. At the end of each accounting period, the construction company will determine the percentage of completion of the product based upon costs to date and estimated total costs. An estimate of final gross profit (contract price minus estimated total construction costs) is made. Gross profit recognized for the period is the difference between total gross profit earned to date and gross profit already recognized in previous periods. Construction costs to date plus the part of the total gross profit earned to date are accumulated in the inventory account called Construction in Process/Progress. The steps in using the percentage of completion method are described below. *Step One. Actual construction costs are accumulated in the inventory account, Construction in Process/Progress.

*Step Two. Accounts Receivable is debited and Billings on Contracts is credited when the firm bills the customer for progress payments. The billing account is a contra construction in process account and is subtracted from that account when reporting construction in process in excess of billings on the balance sheet. *Step Three. Cash collected is credited to Accounts Receivable and debited to Cash. *Step Four. At the end of each period the cumulative amount of gross profit earned to date on the contract is estimated. Costs incurred to Date Percentage of Completion = -------------------------------Estimated Total Costs Gross profit Earned To Date = Percentage of completion X (Contract Price - Estimated Total Costs) *Step Five. Gross profit to be recognized for the accounting period equals to gross profit earned to date minus gross profit recognized in previous periods. The gross profit for the period is debited to Construction in Process/Progress and credited to Contract Revenue. The balance in Construction in Process/Progress equal to total construction costs to date plus recognized profit earned to date. The current period construction costs are recognized as expenses. Contract revenue equals current period construction costs plus gross profit recognized for the period. *Step Six. When the contract is completed and fully billed, the debit balance in Construction in Process/Progress will be identical to the credit balance in Billings on Contracts. The entry to close out the project debits the billings account and credit the construction in process/progress account 2. The completed contract method recognizes all revenue when construction is completed. The completed contract method is similar to recognizing revenue at the point of sale because when a contract exists there should be a very limited holding period after construction is completed. Under the completed contract method, no revenue is recognized until construction is completed. The Construction in Process/Progress account will contain costs to date. It will not contain gross profit earned to date. Gross profit earned over the life of the contract will be the same as under the percentage of completion method. 3. The percentage of completion method is the preferable method for accounting for long term contracts. The accounting profession considers the percentage of completion method to be preferable when reasonable cost estimates are available. The completed contract method is used when such estimates cannot be made. The percentage of completion method is considered at present by the profession as GAAP. 4. Estimated losses on long-term contracts must always be recognized fully in the accounting period when the loss estimate is made. This is true under both the percentage of completion and completed contract methods. Any gross profit previously recognized under the percentage of completion method must be removed from the Construction in Process/Progress account. PROBLEMS: I. The F.

7358901/7359031 PRACTICAL ACCOUNTING 2 B. N. CASTUCIANO/R. E. HERMOSILLA ************************************************************************************* HOME & BRANCH ACCOUNTING I. Accounting for branches Branches are identifiable locations within a business entity for which separate accounting records are maintained. Branches are extensions of home office. Branches are separate accounting entities, but they are not separate legal entities , and their financial statements are used only for internal reporting purposes. Financial statements for the business entity are prepared

by combining the financial statements of the branches with those of the central reporting unit of the business. Branch operations stocks merchandise, makes sales to customers, passes on customer credit, collects receivables, incurs expenses, and performs other functions normally associated with the operations of a separate business enterprise. Such activities are accounted for through separate branch accounting systems that parallel the systems of independent businesses except in the manner of accounting for ownership equities and in recording transactions between branches and the main office of the enterprise. 2. Home and branch transactions Transactions of the home office with external entities are recorded in the home office accounting records in the usual manner. Similarly, transactions between a branch and unrelated entities are recorded on the branch books in accordance with established accounting procedures. Thus, the unique feature of home office and branch accounting lies in the manner of recording transactions between the home office and its branches. Therefore, home and branch accounting is basically accounting inter-office transactions. 3. Reciprocal branch and home office account The branch account on the home office books is an asset account representing the investment of the home office in branch net assets. The home office account in the branch books is an equity account that represents the equity of the home office in the branch net assets. Thus, the branch and home office accounts are reciprocal, each representing the net assets of the branch. This reciprocal relationship between home office and branch accounts is a continuous relationship. Whenever the home office increases (debits) its branch account, the branch should increase (credit) its home office account. Similarly, any decrease (debit) in the home office account on the branch book should be accompanied by a decrease (credit) in the branch account on the home office books. The only reasons that differences between home office and branch accounts occur are time lags (timing difference) in recording information on the two sets of books and home office or branch errors. 4. Merchandise shipment in excess of cost Home office transfers prices in excess of cost for internal shipments to their branches. Sometimes home office set transfer prices at sales prices, or set standard mark-ups. Reasons commonly cited for internal transfer of merchandise above cost include equitable allocation of income between the various units of the enterprise, efficiency in pricing inventories, and concealment of the true profit margins from branch personnel. When the home office ships merchandise to its branches at transfer prices in excess of cost, the accounting records of the home office are adjusted to permit measurement of actual cost of merchandise transferred. This is usually done through an inventory loading or unrealised profit account, which is normally recorded at the end of the accounting period. The adjustment is made to reflect the correct net income of the branch on the home office books. The other term used to describe the loading or unrealised account is allowance for overvaluation in branch inventory account. Entries to record transfer of merchandise at prices in excess of cost do not change the reciprocal relationship between the home office and branch accounts, but they do affect the relationship between home office and branch shipment accounts, because the shipments to branch account is credited at cost and the shipments from home office account is debited at the transfer price. The difference between the shipments account lies in the mark-up that is reflected in the loading in branch inventories account. This loading account is frequently designated unrealised profit in branch inventories. When a branch receives merchandise at transfer prices that include a loading factor and sells that merchandise, its cost of goods sold is overstated and its income is understated. The home office increases its branch account and records branch profit or loss on the basis of income reported by the branch, so any branch profit recorded by the home office is similarly understated. As mentioned above, this understatement of branch profit on home office books is corrected by a year-end adjusting entry that reduces the loading account to reflect amounts realized during the period through branch sales to outside entities. This method is illustrated below in no. 10. 5. Shipments to Branch Recorded at Billing Prices Sometimes home office ships to their branches at billing prices and adjust the loading account at the end of the accounting period. When this approach is used, the balance of the loading account during an accounting period will reflect unrealised profit in branch beginning inventories, and the

shipments to branch account will include the loading factor on shipments for the current period. The shipments to branch account (home office books) and the shipments from home office account (branch books) are reciprocals under this method. Under this method, adjustment of shipments to branch account is made at the end of the accounting period to reflect the branch loading on inventories and the loading account will be adjusted to record the realized profit on shipments sold. To further explain the above discussion, we will use the information given in no. 10 below.

Home Office Books a) Entry to record the shipments during the year. Cebu branch 50,000 Shipments to Cebu branch 50,000

Cebu Branch Books

Shipments from home office 50,000 50,000 Home office

The above shipments account on home office and branch books are recorded both at billed prices. b) Entry to adjust the loading - branch inventory account and the Cebu branch profit. Shipments to Cebu branch 10,000 Loading branch inventory 600 Cebu branch profit

10,600

The shipments to Cebu branch account decreased by P10,000 to adjust the amount of shipments to its correct cost of P40,000. The loading branch inventory account decreased by P600, because the beginning balance on the home books shows P1,600 but the correct ending balance per branch ending inventory from home office should only be P1,000 (P10,000 x x 25%/12%). 6. Freight costs on shipments Freight costs on merchandise shipped between home office and branch locations should be included in branch inventory and cost goods sold measurements. Merchandise cost should not include excessive freight charges from the transfer of merchandise between a home office and its branches or between branch locations. If the branch returns half the merchandise received from the home office because it is defective, or because of a shortage of inventory at the home office location, the home office cost of the merchandise should not include the freight charges to or from the branch. Total unnecessary freight charges on the merchandise are charged to a home office loss on excessive freight charges account because the freight charges represent management mistakes or inefficiencies. Therefore, they are not considered normal operating or freight expenses. The same is true for errors committed by the home office in transferring merchandise to branches. The difference between the correct freight directly from the home office to the branch and the actual freight incurred from home office to the branch must be chargeable to the home office and considered by the home office as loss on excessive freight charges. 7. Home office Branch expenses allocation The allocation of expenses among home office and branch operations is frequently necessary to provide an accurate measurement of income for the separate units of the enterprise. Advertising expense, for example, may relate to sales efforts of the home office and one or more branches. If such advertising is paid by the home office, that part related to branch sales should be allocated to the branches. Pension costs paid by the home office and home office general and administrative expenses may also be allocated to branch operations in order to provide complete profit information for each business unit. Another situation that requires expense allocation of complete profit information arises when plant asset records are centralized in the home office accounting system. The home office normally will record the entire depreciation for all plant assets and just allocate the depreciation to branches for those that pertain to branch plant assets. 8. Reconciliation of home office and branch accounts Reciprocity between home office and branch accounts will not exist at year-end if errors have been made in recording reciprocal transactions either on the home office or the branch books, or if transactions have been recorded on one set of books but not on the other. The approach for reconciling

home office and branch account at year-end is similar to the approach used for bank reconciliations. Only, the most commonly used method is the approach of bringing the two reciprocal accounts to their adjusted balances. Errors committed by the home office or branch office require adjusting entry(s) on their corresponding books, whereas timing differences does not require adjustments. 9. Sales agencies Sales agencies are established to display merchandise and to take customers orders, but they do not stock merchandise to fill customers orders or pass on customer credit. The sales agency is not a separate accounting or business entity. Ordinarily, the only account records required for sales agencies are for cash receipts and disbursements, which are handled in essentially the same manner as petty cash systems. The central accounting system of the business maintains records of sales made through agency operations and related cost of sales and other expenses. 10. ILLUSTRATION OF HOME OFFICE AND BRANCH ACCOUNTING Bert Corporation of Manila has operated a sales branch in Cebu, for a number of years. All merchandise shipped to the Cebu branch is transferred at normal sales prices, which are 125% of home office cost. The Cebu branch also purchases merchandise from outside suppliers. This merchandise is sold by Cebu at a 25% markup based on invoice cost. Balance sheets for Danny Corporations home office and its Cebu branch at December 31, 20x1 are as follows:

PRACTICAL ACCOUNTING 2 RE HERMOSILLA / BN CASTUCIANO PARTNERSHIP LIQUIDATION Partnership Liquidation A liquidation is the winding up of the partnership business. That is, it sells all of its noncash assets called realization, pays its liabilities, and makes a final liquidating distribution to the remaining partners. There are four basic steps to a partnerships liquidation. 1. Any operating income or loss up to the date of the liquidation should be computed and allocated to the partners capital accounts on the basis of their P&L ratio. 2. All noncash assets are sold and converted to cash. The gain (loss) realized on the sale of such assets is allocated to the partners capital account on the basis of their P&L ratio. 3. Any creditors claims, including liquidation expenses or anticipated future claims, are satisfied through the payment or reserve of cash. 4. The remaining unreserved cash is distributed to the remaining partners in accordance with the balance in their capital accounts. Note that this is not necessarily the P&L ratio. Two factors that may complicate the liquidation process are the existence of loans or advances between the partnership and one or more of the partners, or the creation of a deficit in a partners capital account because of the allocation of a loss. When loans exist between the partnership and a partner, the capital account and the loan(s) are combined to give a net amount. This is often referred to as the right of offset. When a deficit exists, the amount of the deficit is allocated to the remaining solvent partners capital accounts on the basis of their relative P&L ratio. Note here that if the partner with capital deficit is personally solvent, he has a liability to the remaining partners for the amount of the deficit. There are two topics that appear with regularity on the CPA examination in regard to the liquidation of a partnership. They are the statement of partnership liquidation and the determination a safe payment in an installment liquidation.

a. Statement of Partnership Liquidation The statement of partnership liquidation shows in detail all of the transactions associated with the liquidation of the partnership. It should be noted here that the liquidation of a partnership can take one of two forms: simple (lump-sum) or installment. A simple liquidation (illustrated below) is one in which all of the assets are sold in bulk and all of the creditors claims are satisfied before a single liquidating distribution is made to the partners. Because the assets are sold in bulk there is a tendency to realize greater losses than if the assets are sold over a period time. As a result, many partnership liquidate on an installment basis. In an installment liquidation the assets are sold over a period of time and the cash is distributed to the partners as it becomes available. Example: Statement of Partnership Liquidation - Simple Liquidation Assume the following: The capital balances are as given below. The P&L ratio is 5:3:2 for A, B, and C, respectively. Statement of Partnership Liquidation Cash Other Assets Liabilities A B C Balances P 50,000 P750,000 P450,000 P120,000 P170,000 P60,000 Sale of assets 400,000 ( 600,000) (100,000) ( 60,000) (40,000) 450,000 150,000 20,000 110,000 20,000 Payment of liabilities (450,000) (450,000) 0 0 Sale of assets 100,000 ( 150,000) ( 25,000) ( 15,000) (10,000) 0 ( 5,000) 95,000 10,000 Distribution of As deficit 5,000 ( 3,000) ( 2,000) 0 92,000 8,000 Final distribution of cash ( 100,000) ( 92,000) ( 8,000) Notice that after the noncash assets have been sold and the creditors satisfied, a P5,000 deficit remains in As capital account. The deficit is allocated to the remaining solvent partners on the basis of their relative P&L ratios, in this case, 3:2. A is liable to the partnership for the P5,000. If A is personally solvent and repays the P5,000, then P3,000 will go to B and P2,000 will go to C. If in the above example there had been liquidation expense or loans between the partnership and partners these would have to be recognized in the statement prior to any distribution to partners. b. Installment Method of Cash Distribution There are two keys to preparing a statement of partnership liquidation under the installment method: the determination of the available cash balance at any given point in time and the determination of which partner(s) is(are) to receive the payment of that cash. The reason that the cash is not distributed in accordance with the P&L ratio is twofold: first the final cash distribution is based upon the balance in each

partners capital account, not the P&L ratio, and second, there will be situations, as illustrated in the previous example, where one or more partners will have deficit balances in their capital accounts. If this is the case, they should never receive a cash distribution, even if the deficit does not arise until late in the liquidation process. The determination of the available cash balance is generally very straightforward. The beginning cash balance (cash on hand at the start of the liquidation process) is adjusted for the cash receipts from receivables, sale of noncash assets, payment to creditors, and liquidation expenses incurred. A situation may occur where a certain amount of cash is to be reserved for payment of future liabilities that may arise. If this is the case, this cash should be treated as noncash asset which makes it unavailable for current distribution to the partners. The determination of which partner(s) is(are) to receive the available cash is somewhat more difficult. There are a number of ways to make this computation, all of which are equally correct in the eyes of the examiners. This determination can be made at the beginning of the liquidation process or at the time of each payment. In making this determination there are two key assumptions that must be made: (1) the individual partners are assumed to be personally insolvent, and (2) the remaining noncash assets are deemed to be worthless (thus creating a maximum possible amount of loss). One method of determining the amount of the safe payment is the use of an Installment Cash Distribution Schedule. This schedule is prepared by determining the amount of loss required to eliminate each partners capital account. As noted above, all of the remaining noncash assets are to be considered worthless at the time a safe payment is determined. Thus if we determine the amount of loss required to eliminate each partners capital balance, we can determine the order in which the partners should receive the cash payments. When preparing this schedule it is important to make sure that the proper capital balance is used. The capital balance used must be inclusive of any loans or advances between the partnership and partners. Thus, the capital balance at the beginning of the liquidation process is increased by any amount owed to the partner by the partnership, and decreased by any amount owed to the partnership by the partner. Example: Schedule of Possible Losses and Installment Cash Distribution Assume the same data as used for the previous example. A, capital B, capital C, capital Total Capital balances P120,000 P170,000 P60,000 P350,000 Loss to eliminate A (120,000) ( 72,000) (48,000) 240,000 0 98,000 12,000 Additional loss to eliminate C ( 18,000) (12,000) 30,000 80,000 0 Additional loss to eliminate B ( 80,000) 80,000 0 P350,000 The total capital balance of P350,000 indicates that if the noncash assets are sold for P350,000 less than their book value, then none of the partners will receive a cash distribution. The purpose of this schedule is to determine how much of a loss each partners capital account can withstand based on that partners P&L ratio. In this example As capital would be eliminated if the partnership incurred a P240,000 (P120,000/50%) loss, Bs would be eliminated by a P566,667 (P170,000/30%) loss, and Cs by a P300,000 (P60,000/20%) loss. A is assumed to be eliminated first because it would take the smallest amount of loss to eliminate his account Once A is eliminated as a partner, the P&L ratios change to reflect the relative P&L ratio of the

remaining partners, in this case B and C. Based on the remaining capital balances and the relative P&L ratio, it would take a P163,333 (P98,000/60%) loss to eliminate B and a P30,000 (P12,000/40%) loss to eliminate C. Now that C is eliminated, B will share all of the profits and losses as a sole partner (i.e., 100%). It will now take an P80,000 loss to eliminate Bs capital. The resulting installment cash distribution schedule would appear as follows (this schedule assumes that all creditors have already received full payment; thus, the cash amount represents available cash): Installment Cash Distribution Schedule Partner A B C First P 80,000 100% Next 30,000 60% 40% Next 240,000 50% 30% 20% Any other 50% 30% 20% While the example shown in the previous page was not an installment liquidation, the Installment Cash Distribution Schedule shown above could still be used to determine how the available cash of P100,000 is to be distributed. This is illustrated below. Partner A B C First P 80,000 P80,000 Next 20,000 12,000 P8,000 P100,000 P92,000 P8,000 The above amounts can also be determined by simply computing the loss absorption capacity of each partner. The loss absorption capacity pertain to the amount of loss a partners capital can absorbed. As already explained above, As capital can only absorb P240,000 loss (P120,000/50%), whereas, Bs capital can absorb P566,667 loss (P170,000/30%) and Cs capital can absorb up to P300,000 loss (P60,000/20%). In this case, Bs capital has the highest loss absorption capacity in which the amount of cash to be paid to B before other partners can share should be P80,000 (P566,667 - P300,000) x 30%, known as priority 1 or allocation 1. After giving P80,000 to B his capital balance will have a loss absorption capacity equal that of C P300,000, (P170,000 - P80,000 = P90,000/30%). The next available cash to be distributed known as priority 2 or allocation 2 can be determined by simply getting the difference between the loss absorption capacity of B or C and that of A multiply by B and Cs P&L ratio. In this case, Bs share under priority 2 is P18,000 (P300,000 P240,000) x 30% and Cs share is P12,000 (P300,000 - P240,000) x 20%. After giving P18,000 to B and P12,000 to C, their capital balances will be P72,000 for B (P90,000 P18,000) and P48,000 for C (P60,000 - P12,000). The partners capital balances after priority 2 will have the same amount of loss absorption capacity in which case any additional cash distributed can be made based on the partners P&L ratio, in this case, 50%;30%;20%. ILLUSTRATIONS: 1. Partners A, B, and C decided to liquidate their partnership. A balance sheet was prepared on this date as follows: ABC Partnership Balance Sheet As of March 1, 2006 Cash P 20,000 Accounts Payable P 25,000 Other Assets 180,000 Loan Payable, B 5,000 A, Capital 50,000

Since Bs share in the loss on realization is greater than his capital balance, a capital deficiency results. The loan payable to B is not sufficient to absorb the deficiency, and since he is insolvent, the other partners absorb the deficiency balance as a loss. This will decrease the payment to be received by partners A and C. 2. On December 31, 2006, the balance sheet of XX, YY, and ZZ is as follows: XYZ Partnership Balance Sheet December 31, 2006 Cash P 15,000 Liabilities P 50,000 Non- cash Assets 265,000 Loan Payable, YY 20,000 Loan Payable, ZZ 10,000 XX, Capital 48,000 YY, Capital 72,000 ________ ZZ, Capital 80,000 P280,000 P280,000

It is then, supported by the Schedule of Cash Distribution for a clearer presentation of how the distribution to the partners were arrived at. Another supporting computation that may be used is the Schedule of Safe Payments. This schedule is done on a monthly basis with the same purpose in mind. And that is to determine the proper distribution of cash among the partners. Using the same example, we are now going to prepare a Schedule of Safe Payments: SCHEDULE OF SAFE PAYMENTS FEBRUARY XX YY ZZ__ Total Interests* P31,800 P75,800 P68,400 Less: Possible Loss** ( 40,500) ( 40,500) ( 54,000) Balances P( 8,700) P35,300 P14,400 Absorption of Deficit 8,700 ( 3,729) ( 4,971) Payments P31,571 P 9,429 MARCH Total Interests P23,100 P35,529 P47,371 Less: Possible Loss ( 18,000) ( 18,000) ( 24,000) Payments P 5,100 P17,529 P23,371
* TOTAL INTERESTS = CAPITAL + PAYABLE TO PARTNER -- RECEIVABLE FROM PARTNER. ** POSSIBLE LOSS = NON- CASH ASSET BALANCE + CASH WITHHELD FOR FUTURE EXPENSES.

Short cut technique of determining the amount of cash available to a partner or all partners will be discussed inside the classroom. These are the common questions asked in the CPA board exam. Examinees are no longer required to prepare in good form a statement of liquidation or a safe payment schedule. The questions normally focuses on distribution of available cash to partners as to how much will be their share and determination of the total liquidation loss. Hence, an examinee should give his/her answer within the time limit required. PROBLEMS: 1. The ABC partnership is being dissolved. All liabilities have been liquidated. The balance of assets on hand is being realized gradually. The following are details of partners accounts: Capital account Current account Loans to P/L (Original (Undistributed Earnings Net Partners Ratio investment) Drawings) hip Al P200,000 P15,000 (Cr.)

Prepare a program to show how cash is to be distributed during the entire course of liquidation. b. Using the program developed above, prepare a schedule summarizing the payments to be made to partners at the end of each month. 3. D, E and F are partners sharing profits in the ratio of 40:35:25, respectively. On December 31, 2006, they agree to liquidate. A balance sheet prepared on this date follows: STO Partnership Balance Sheet As of December 31, 2006 Cash P 2,000 Liabilities P 6,000 Other Assets 46,000 E, Loan 5,000 F, Loan 2,500 D, Capital 14,450 E, Capital 12,550 _ F, Capital 7,500 P48,000 P48,000 The results of liquidation are summarized below: Realizati ons January February March April Book Value Cash Realize d Expenses of Realizatio n P500 750 600 400 Cash W/held at end of month for estd.

All cash available, except the amount withheld for future expenses, is distributed at the end of each month. Required: Determine the share of each partner every month of distribution. 4. G, H, and I, who share profits in the ratio of 4:1:5, respectively, have the following capital balances of P20,000, P20,000, and P60,000, respectively. On this date, when the partnership has liabilities of P16,000, they decided to liquidate. a. If G gets P35,000 upon final liquidation, what is the realization gain or loss? b. If H receives P15,500, how much does G receive?

c.

If G receives only P6,000 upon final liquidation, how much is the realization loss?

5. The balance sheet of J, K and L Partnership shows the following information as of December 31, 2006: Cash P 2,000 Liabilities P 5,000 Other Assets 28,000 J, Loan 2,500 J, Capital 12,500 K, Capital 7,000 L, Capital 3,000 P30,000 P30,000 Profit and loss ratio is 3:2:1,respectively, for J, K, and L. Other assets were realized as follows: Date Cash Received Book Value January, 2006 P 8,000 P 9,000 February, 2006 3,500 7,700 March, 2006 12,500 11,300 Cash a. b. c. is distributed as assets are realized. How much is the total loss to J? How much is the total cash received by K? How much cash does L receive in January?

6. Partners M, N, O and P, who share profits 5:3:1:1, respectively, decide to dissolve. Capital balances at this time are P120,000, P80,000, P60,000 and P20,000, respectively. Before selling the firms assets, the partners agree to the following: a. Partnership furniture and fixtures, with a book value of P24,000, is to be taken over by partner M at a price of P30,000. b. Partnership claims of P40,000 are to be paid off and the balance of cash on hand, P60,000, is to be divided in a manner that will avoid the need for any possible recovery of cash from a partner. Questions: a. How much is the total liquidation loss? b. How much should all partners received in the final settlement? 7. Q and R share profits and losses 40% and 60% respectively. After the sale of all firm assets, ledger accounts show the balances reported below. Both partners are personally insolvent and unable to contribute to the partnership. Cash P200,000 Salary, payable to Q P5,000 Receivable from R 15,000 Q, capital 95,000 Loss from liquidation 245,000 R, capital 180,000 P280,000 P280,000 How would the P20,000 be distributed between Q and R? 8. Partners S, T, U and V share profits 50%, 30%, 10% and 10%, respectively. Accounts maintained with partners just prior to liquidation follows: S T U V Advances (Dr. Balance) P9,000 P5,000 Loans (Cr.

Balance sheet data for the firm of W, X, and Y as of January 1, 2006, follow:

675,000 200,000 200,000 ___200,000 P1,225,000 Partners share profits equally after the allowance of a salary to Y, the managing partner, of P7,500 monthly. As a result of operation losses sustained at the beginning of 2006, W advanced P150,000 to the firm on April 1; it was agreed that he would be allowed interest at 6%. With continued losses, the members decided to liquidate. Y agreed to take over partnership equipment in part settlement of his interest, the transfer being made at an agreed value of P40,000. On November 1, P200,000 cash was available for distribution to partners after sale of remaining assets and payment of partnership obligations to outsiders. Y had withdrawn his salary for January and February but had not received his salary for the period March 1 to November 1; no other cash payments had been made to partners. Available cash was distributed on November 1 and the firm was declared dissolved. How much cash should W received in the distribution of P200,000 cash available? 10. Z, Y, and X form a form a partnership on January 1, 2006, investing P150,000, P100,000 and P100,000, respectively. Profits and losses are to be shared in the ratio 2:1:1, respectively. It is agreed that 6% (1/2 of 1% per month) is to be charged on withdrawals that decrease capital below the original investments. On March 1, Z withdraws P50,000. Business is unsatisfactory and it is decided to dissolve partnership. Partnership assets realized P50,000 and the accountant distributes this cash to the proper parties on November 1, 2006. All parties are solvent, and proper settlement is made among partners the same day. Questions: a. How much is the total liquidation loss? b. Show the final cash settlement among partners. 11. The partnership of R, O and Y was dissolved on October 30, 2006, and the account balances after all noncash assets are converted to cash on November 1, 2006, along with residual profit and loss sharing ratios, are: Cash P 50,000 Accounts payable P120,000 R, capital (30%) 90,000 O, capital (30%) (60,000) Y, capital (40%) (100,000) Personal assets and liabilities of the partners at November 1, 2006 are: Personal assets Personal liabilities R P 80,000 P 90,000 O 100,000 61,000 Y 100,000 80,000 If Y contributed P70,000 to the partnership to provide cash to pay the creditors, what amount of Rs P90,000 partnership equity would appear to be recoverable? 12. Partners A, C, and E have capital balances of P112,000, P130,000 and P50,000, respectively and share profits in the ratio of 4:2:1. Questions: a. How much must the partnership realize on the sale of its assets if A is to receive P100,000 as final settlement?
