The CRT partnership has decided to terminate operations and to
liquidate the partnership assets. There are no partner loans, and
all partners have positive capital balances. Gains and losses on
liquidation and cash distributions to partners should be allocated
as follows:
Gains and Losses | Cash Distributions | |
A) | In profit and loss ratio | Based on capital balances |
B) | Based on capital balances | In profit and loss ratio |
C) | In profit and loss ratio | In profit and loss ratio |
D) | Based on capital balances | Based on capital balances |
Gains and Losses to be allocated on the basis of profit and loss ratio because the profit and loss ratio indicates the percentage of total profit that needs to be allocated to each partner.
Cash Distribution - It means the remaining cash i.e. the asset left in partnership, that is to be distributed based on capital balances, because it indicates the amount of money invested in firm by each partner and that needs to be repaid at the time of liquidation (if the firm has sufficient funds).
Hence, Option A is correct.
