Answer #1

Answers are as follows:

1. Ruth is responsible to pay the partnership additional $30,000, even if she would need to sell her personal assets in order to afford this payment.

2. London but not Rome because London corporation is controlled (More than 51 % holding) by the Paris corporation. In case of Rome corporation the Paris corporation is having significance influence but not control (Less than 50 % indirect holding).

3. Partners’ capital beginning balances on the schedule of liquidation (after taking into account partners loans) will be as follows

Eva 8,000; Debora 55,000; Alice 87,000;

Eva (58000-50000) = 8000

Debora = 55000

Alice (40000+47000) = 87000
