Solutions Class 12 Accountancy Chapter -5 (Dissolution of Partnership Firm)

LONG ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS

Question 1. Explain the process of dissolution of partnership firm.
Answer: Dissolution means breaking of relationship among the partners. As per Section 39 of the Indian Partnership Act 1932, the dissolution of firm implies that not only partnership is dissolved but the firm losses its existence, i.e., after dissolution the firm does not remain in business.
Dissolution of partnership firm implies discontinuation of the business of the partnership firm. Dissolution involves winding up of business, disposal of assets and paying off the liabilities and distribution of any surplus or borne of loss by the partners of the firm. As per the Partnership Act 1932, a partnership firm may be dissolved in the following manners.
Solutions Class 12 Accountancy Chapter -5 (Dissolution of Partnership Firm)

(i) Dissolution by Agreement As a firm is formed with the consent of all partners with a mutual agreement. Dissolution can also be there with
the help of agreement. It happens in following two ways.
A firm may be dissolved
(a) When all the partners agree to dissolve the firm.
(b) When there is any term related to dissolution of firm in the partnership agreement.
(ii) Compulsory Dissolution A firm may be dissolved compulsorily in the following condition
(a) In case, all the partners or all except one partner become insolvent or insane.
(b) If the business becomes illegal.
(c) Where all the partners except one decide to retire from the firm.
(d) Where all the partners except one die.
(iii) Dissolution by Notice When partnership is at will then the partnership firm may be dissolved, if any partner give notice in writing to all the other partners expressing his/her intention to dissolve the firm.
(iv) Dissolution by Court A court may order for dissolution if a suit is filed by a partner, as per Section 44 of Indian Partnership Act, 1932. The court may order to dissolve a partnership in following conditions
(a) A partner becomes insane.
(b) A partner commits breach of agreement wilfully.

(d) When a partner transfers his interest to a third party.
(e) If business cannot be continued.
(f) If a partner becomes incapable of doing business.
(g) If court thinks dissolution to be just and equitable on any ground.
Besides these, above mentioned circumstances, a partnership firm may be dissolved if the court at any stage finds dissolution of the firm to be justified and inevitable.

Question 2. What is a Realisation Account?
Answer: On dissolution of a firm, all the books of account are closed, all assets are sold and all liabilities are paid off. In order to record the sale of assets and discharge of liabilities, a nominal account is opened named realisation account. The main purpose to open realisation account is to ascertain the profit or loss due to the realisation of assets and liabilities. Realisation profit (if credit side > debit side) or realisation loss (if debit side > credit side) are transferred to the partner’s capital account in their profit sharing ratio.
Concisely, following are the important objectives of preparing realisation account
(i) To close all the books of account.
(ii) To record transactions relating to the sale of assets and discharge of liabilities.
(iii) To determine profit or loss due to the realisation of assets and liabilities.
Features of Realisation Account
(i) In realisation account, sale of assets is recorded at their realised value.
(ii) Payment to liabilities (creditors) is recorded at their settlement value.
(iii) After all the transactions have been recorded, there will be balance, which may be profit or loss.
(iv) Profit arises in two situations
(a) When assets are realised at more than their book value.
(b) When liabilities are settled at less than their book value.
(v) If the two conditions are vice versa, the net result will be loss.
(vi) The net profit or loss on realisation is to be transferred to the partner’s capital accounts in their profit sharing ratio.

The format for realisation account is as follows

Answer:
Solutions Class 12 Accountancy Chapter -5 (Dissolution of Partnership Firm)

Question 4. How deficiency of creditors is paid off?
Answer: When a firm gets into the situation of dissolution, first of all the amount received from the sale of firm’s assets are utilised to pay the creditors. After that, if the sale receipts of assets fall short, then partners’ private assets are used for settling the dues of the firm’s creditors. Even if some portion of the amount due to creditors is left unpaid, then there arises deficiency of
creditors. This deficiency is handled in the following two ways
(i) In first case, deficiency is transferred to the Deficiency Account.
(ii) In second case, the deficiency is transferred to the partner’s capital account.
In first case, a separate account is prepared for the firm’s creditors. Then in ‘ order to ascertain the firm’s cash balance accruing from the sale of the firm’s
assets and partners’ private assets, cash account is prepared. After ascertaining the cash availability with the firm, the creditors and the external liabilities are paid proportionately (partially). The remaining unpaid creditors or the deficiency is transferred to the Deficiency Account.
In the second case, the creditors are paid by the cash available with the firm
including the partners’ individual contribution. The deficiency or unpaid creditors amount .is transferred to the partner’s capital account. Thus, the deficiency of the creditors is borne by all the partners in their profit sharing ratio. If any partner becomes insolvent and is unable to bear the deficiency, then this will be regarded as a capital loss to the firm.
‘ If the partnership deed is silent, about such capital loss in the fact of insolvency of a partner, the deficiency on the insolvent partner’s capital ’ account must be borne by the other solvent partners, in proportion to their capital. In that case, we should apply Garner vs Murray decision in solving problems in partnership.
