Productivity Tip: Spend a few minutes reviewing new information as soon as you've learned it. Look
through the material again and add to any notes that you've already made. It can also help to
explain any key points out loud.
This first review is a good way of checking that you've got everything you need, and that you've
understood it. It will also avoid you having to "relearn" it completely when you review it again later.

Dear student, this content notes will help you to understand the partnership form of business. We
encourage you to finish all of these together with your reference book as your guide. Smile as you read!
DEFINITION
In a contract of partnership, two or more persons bind themselves to contribute money,
property or industry to a common fund, with the intention of dividing the profits among themselves.
(Civil Code of the Philippines, Article 1767).
(Read Basic of Financial Accounting and Reporting by WIN Ballada, Brief History of Partnership and
Definition, pages 12-2 to 12-3 to lead you in further details about partnership)
Now, I know you are excited to know more about partnership, so go next to its characteristics!
CHARACTERISTICS OF PARTNERSHIP
✓ Ease of Formation. Partnership may be created by mere agreement of the partners (owners)
thus, require less formality as compared to corporations
✓ Separate Juridical Personality. Partnership has a juridical/legal personality separate and
distinct from that of each of the partners. For example, if Lex and Leo formed a partnership, three
persons are involved, namely, (1) the partnership and the partners, (2) Lex and (3) Leo.
✓ Mutual Contribution. There cannot be a partnership without contribution of money, property or
industry (talents and knowledge) which will form part their common funds.
✓ Division of Profit or Loss. Profit and losses as a result of the business operation are shared
among the partners in any manner to which they agree. (This will be discussed further in the next
modules.)
✓ Mutual Agency. The partners are agents of the partnership thus, any partner can bind the other
partners to a contract or agreement if he/she acting within his express/implied authority for the
purpose of business operations.
✓ Limited life. It may be dissolved by admission (if new partner/s will join the partnership), death,
insolvency, incapacity, withdrawal of partners or expiration of the term specified in the partnership
agreement.
✓ Unlimited Liability. All partners (except limited partners), including industrial ones, are personally
liable for all the debts incurred by the partnership to the extent of his personal assets after all
partnership assets have been exhausted.
✓ Income taxes. Partnerships are subject to tax at the rate of 30% of taxable income (except
general professional partnership).
✓ Partners’ Equity Account. Each partner has a capital account and withdrawal account
After enumerating and identifying its characteristics, maybe you find partnership as a good form
of business organization. Then, it’s time to balance out its pros and cons!
Let’s have another differentiation of partnership and corporation! Please, do proceed to the table

Yes, the purchase binding on Mary Joy even though she was not involved in the transaction because of the
mutual agency principle of partnership wherein one partner can bind the other partners to a contract if he is
acting within his express authority. Since Mary Rose is the managing partner of the business, her transaction or
contract is binding on Mary Joy.

1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
Important Notes:
* Permanent withdrawals are made with the intention of permanently decreasing the partner’s
capital
** Temporary withdrawals are regular advances made by the partners in anticipation of their
share in profit
*** Net Investment (Asset contributed less liabilities assumed by the partnership)
Share in P/L may be recorded directly to capital account, if the partners do not wish to maintain
their capital accounts for investment and permanent withdrawal.
PARTNERSHIP FORMATION
Partnership formation is the first stage in the life cycle of a partnership followed by operation,
dissolution and liquidation. In the formation of partnership, the capital contributions of partners are
recorded as debit to asset accounts and credit to partner’s capital account. Proper accounting
measurement must also be considered to determine the appropriate value or amount must the
investment of the partners be recorded.
Important Notes:
Illustration 1.1 On July 1, 2020, Lex and Leo formed a partnership. Lex contributed cash
P700,000 while Leo contributed land with carrying amount of P1,000,000 and fair market value of
P1,300,000. The land has an unpaid mortgage of P300,000 to be assumed by the partnership
The entries with correct valuation of the partners’ contributions are as follows:
Cash 700,000
Land 1,300,000
Mortgage Payable 300,000
Lex, Capital 700,000
Leo, Capital 1,000,000
Observe the following:
✓ The land is recorded at fair market value because of the absence of any agreement of the
partners.
✓ The mortgage is recognized because it is assumed by the partnership which result to a
decreased of capital credit of the contributing partner.
Before we proceed to the next illustration, analyze further the succeeding illustrations.
Illustration 1.2 Suppose that Lex and Leo formed partnership with Allister. Allister who has a
significant managerial experience will contribute his skills by handling the day-to-day operation of
the partnership as industrial partner. Aside from his service, the partnership did not receive any
asset from Allister.
In this case, only memorandum entry in the general journal will be made because no value
is provided for the services since its value cannot be quantified unless it is paid for.

Productivity Tip: After finishing this module, make your summary notes of the important rules for
dividing profits or losses among partners and explain this to your friends or classmates.
A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
To further understand the process of accounting for partnership, let’s check the basic considerations
when after formation, partnership will perform its regular business operation or its day-to-day business
activities. Like any other businesses, we know that the partnership’s primary target is to achieve its goal
and objectives specifically the earning of profit. This hard earned profit will then be divided among
partners as a reward for their work done for the business success. However, the result of operation is
not always profit it can also be a loss. Same as through with profit, loss shall also be divided among
partners.
In this module, we will explore and discuss the rules followed for the distribution of profits or losses
among partners. As you go along, you may be encounter words which may seem unfamiliar to you. So
it is highly suggested that you take note of those words and find its meaning using your dictionary.
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
Illustration. "Nelson Daganta is a one-third partner" is an ambiguous statement. Daganta may have
one-third equity in the net assets of the partnership but might have a larger or smaller share in the profit
or loss of the firm. Such a statement may also be interpreted to mean that Daganta is entitled to one-
third of the profit or loss, although his capital account may represent much more or much less than one-
• Performance Method
Many partnerships use profit and loss sharing arrangements that give some weight to the specific
performance of each partner to provide incentives to perform well. This allocation of profits to a
partner on the basis of performance is frequently referred to as a bonus.
1. Profits
a. the profits will be divided according to the partners’ agreement
b. if there is no agreement:
• Share of capitalist partner is according to his capital contribution (according to ratio of original capital
investment or in its absence, ratio of capital balances at the beginning of the year)
• Share of industrial partner such share as may be just and equitable under the circumstances
2. Losses
a. the losses will be divided according to partners agreement.
b. if there is no agreement as to the distribution of losses but there is an agreement as to profits, the
losses shall be distributed according to the profit sharing ratio
c. in the absence of any agreement:
• Share of Capitalist partner is according to his capital contribution (according to ratio of original capital
investment or in its absence, ratio of capital balances at the beginning of the year)
• Purely industrial partner shall not be liable for any losses because he cannot withdraw the work
already done by him.
Any business entity will from time to time discover errors made in the measurement of profit in prior
accounting periods even if good internal control was taken place.
Prior period errors are omissions from and other misstatements of the entity’s financial statements for one
or more periods that are discovered in the current period. (Example: errors in estimation of depreciation, errors
in inventory valuation, and omission of accruals of revenue and expenses)
The effect of correction will be divided based on the applicable profit and loss ratio.
2) Activity 2: Skill-building Activities (with answer key) (18 mins + 2 mins checking)
Directions: Try this exercise and see how well do you understand the concepts about manufacturing. In
the spaces provided, write T if the statement below is true otherwise F if it is false.
_____ 1) A partnership agreement may validly stipulate that one partner shall receive no share in
profits or losses.
_____ 2) If a partnership agreement does not specify how profits or losses are to be distributed, they
should be allocated based on relative capital account balances.
_____ 3) In the absence of agreement for distribution of profit, the share of industrial partner in profit is
not fixed because it is based on what is just and equitable under circumstances.
_____ 4) The industrial partner is not liable for losses since he cannot withdraw the work or labor
already done.
_____ 5) The capitalist-industrial partner is not liable for any losses.
_____ 6) Profits or losses are divided equally among the partners unless partnership agreement
specifies otherwise.
_____ 7) In the absence of a specific agreement, the law requires that partnership profits be divided
equally among partners.
_____ 8) If only the share of each partner in the profits has been agreed upon, the share of each in the
losses shall be in the same proportion.
_____ 9) If an error resulted in an understatement of profit in previous periods, a correcting entry would
be needed to increase capital.

FAQs
1. Is the agreement to exclude partners from any share in the profits or losses void?
- Partnership was established for common benefit or interest of the partners. Hence, stipulation
which excludes one or more partners from any share in the profits or losses is void. Note further
that only the agreement as to profit and loss is void not the partnership itself.
2. What is the share in profits of an industrial partner who is also a capitalist partner?
- As for the profits, the industrial partner shall receive such share as may be just and equitable
under circumstances. If besides his services he has contributed capital, he shall also receive a
share in the profits in proportion to his capital.

Required: Compute the respective share of each partner in profit or loss using the above methods and
prepare journal entries.
a. Equally. In case the partners agreed to share in profit (loss) equally, simply divide the profit
based on the number of partners. (300,000 / 2)
Income Summary 300,000
Medina, Capital 150,000
Detoya, Capital 150,000
b. Other agreed ratio (arbitrary ratio). In case the partners agreed to share in profit (loss)
using ratio, fraction or percentage, simply divide the profit in accordance with the agreed ratio.
Example: Assume instead that Medina and Detoya share profits and loss in a ratio of 60:40, the
profit of 300,000 would be divided as follows:
a. ratio of original capital investments. Assume that the partnership agreement provides for
the division of profits in the ratio of original capital investment. The original investment of Medina
and Detoya are P400,000 and P800,000, respectively. The profit of 300,000 would be divided as
follows:
b. ratio of capital balances at the beginning of the year. Assume that the partnership
agreement provides for the division of profits in the ratio of capital balances at the beginning of
the year. In this case, the original capital investment is also the capital balance at the beginning
of the year since the partnership is only on its first year of operations. The profit distribution
therefore is the same as in the example above.
However, in the next years, beginning capital may change depending on the results of business
operation and other transaction affecting capital such as investment and permanent withdrawal.
c. ratio of capital balances at the end of the year. Assume that the partnership agreement
provides for the division of profits in the ratio of capital balances at the end of the year before
drawing and distribution of profit. The ending balances are 500,000 for Medina and 750,000 for
Detoya. The profit of 300,000 would be divided as follows:
d. ratio of average capital balances. Assume that the partnership agreement provides for the
division of profits in the ratio of average capital balances. Based on the computation in your book,
the ending balances are 475,000 for Medina and 775,000 for Detoya. The profit of 300,000 would
be divided as follows:
Assume that the partnership agreement provides allowed 15% interest on average capital account
balances, with the balance to be divided equally. Based on the computation in your book, the average capital
account balances are 475,000 for Medina and 775,000 for Detoya. The profit of 300,000 would be divided
as follows:
Comparison of distribution based solely on capital ratios as against distribution with interest on
capital balances.
Under the interest plan, the partner who invested more capital is credited (increased) for an interest on his
capital and is ultimately debited (decreased) with a lesser share of the loss; in some cases, the result may
even be a net credit (increase).
5. By allowing bonus to managing partner based on profit and the balance in an agreed ratio
A partnership contract may provide for a special compensation in the form of bonus to the managing
partner when the results of operations of the partnership are favorable. This allowance is given in order to
encourage the partner to maximize the profit potentials of the partnership. Bonus is not being considered
in the computation of profit, rather it is a mere technique to distribute profits.
Assume that the Medina and Detoya Partnership agreement provided for a bonus of 25% of profit
before bonus to Partner Medina and the balance to be divided equally. The profit is P300,000.
6. By allowing salaries to partners, interest on partners’ capital, bonus to the managing partner and
the balance in an agreed ratio
Partnership agreement may also stipulate allowances which normally provided first to respective partners
considered and the remaining amount of profit or loss is divided among the partners based on their profit or
loss sharing ratio. These allowances enumerated below are considered as mere techniques to distribute
profits or losses equitably and not as expense of the partnership:
• Salaries - to industrial partners who devote services for the business
• Bonuses - to the managing partners when the results of operations of the partnership are
favorable
• Interest on partners’ capital - partnership may agree to allow capitalist partners specified rate of
interest on their capital contribution
Example: Assume that the profit for the year is P400,000 and the partnership agreement provided the
following:
• Bonus to Medina of 25% of profit after salaries and interest but before bonus
• Annual salaries of P100,000 to Medina and P60,000 to Detoya
• Interest of 15% on average capital balances of Medina and Detoya
• Balance to be divided in a ratio of 40:60
Directions: Determine the partners’ share in profit or loss for each of the following situation:
Pozon and Digao established a general professional partnership by investing P200,000 and P350,000,
respectively.
a. Loss is P330,000 and the partners have no written partnership agreement.
b. Profit is P330,000 and the partnership agreement states that the partners share profits or losses
on the basis of their capital contributions
c. Profit is 625,000. The first 300,000 is shared on the basis of capital contribution. The next
225,000 is based on partner’s service, with Pozon receiving 30% and Digao receiving 70%. The
remainder is shared equally.
AA, BB, CC and DD own a publishing company that they operate as partnership. The
partnership agreement includes the following:
The average capital balances are AA, 50,000; BB 45,000; CC, 20,000 and DD, 47,000. Any
remaining profits and losses are to be allocated equally among the partners.

FAQs
1. What would be the rule, if the partnership agreement is not clear on the treatment of salary allowances
when losses are incurred?
- In the absence of an agreement to govern this situation, salary allowances will be provided even
when operations yielded losses.
2. What is the effect to the allocation of profits or losses when partners’ agreement allows salaries,
interest on capital and bonus?
- The service contributions and capital contributions of the partners are often not equal. If the
service contributions are not equal, salary allowances can compensate for the differences. Or,
when capital contributions are not equal, the interest allowances can make up for the unequal
investments.

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
Dearest student, great day! As we continue to study partnership, we now move to the preparation of
financial statements and compare how it differs to a sole proprietorship. But first, let us begin our day
by activating your prior knowledge through answering the following pre-test.
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
Overall Considerations
• Fair Presentation and Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRSs). The financial statements shall present fairly the financial position, financial performance
and cash flows of the entity. Entities are required to make an explicit and unreserved statement
of compliance with IFRS in the notes.
• Going Concern. Financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis unless
management intends to liquidate the entity or cease trading or has no realistic option but to do
so.
• Accrual Basis of Accounting. An entity shall prepare its financial statements, except for cash
flow information, using the accrual basis of accounting.
• Materiality and Aggregation. An entity shall present separately each material class of similar
items. Material items that are dissimilar in nature or function should be separately disclosed.
• Offsetting. An entity shall not offset assets and liabilities, income and expenses unless required
or permitted by an IFRS.
• Frequency of Reporting and Comparative Information. At least annually, an entity shall
present with equal prominence each financial statement in a complete set of financial statements
including comparative information in respect of the previous period for all amounts reported in the
current period's financial statements.
• Consistency of Presentation. An entity shall retain the presentation and classification of items
in the financial statements in successive periods unless an alternative would be more appropriate
or an IFRS requires a change in presentation.
• Identification of the Financial Statements. An entity shall clearly identify the financial
statements and distinguish them from other information in the same published document. An
entity shall clearly identify each financial statement and the notes. An entity shall display the
following information prominently:
o name of the reporting entity;
o whether the financial statements are of the individual entity or a group of entities;
o the date of the end of the reporting period or the period covered by the set of financial
statements or notes;
o the presentation currency;
o and the level of rounding used fin presenting amount in the financial statements.
f. a statement of financial position as at the beginning of the earliest Comparative period when an
entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively or makes a retrospective restatement of items
in its financial statements, or when if reclassifies items in its financial statements.
The components of profit or loss may be presented either as part of a single statement of comprehensive
income or in an income statement, as permitted by paragraph 81 of AIS No. 1 (revised 2007). When an
income statement is presented, it is part of a complete set of financial statements and shall be displayed
immediately before the statement of comprehensive income.
As a minimum, the statement of comprehensive income shall include line items that present the following
amounts for the period:
a. Revenue;
b. Finance costs;
c. Share of profit pr loss of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method;
d. Tax expense;
e. A single amount comprising the total of:
i. The post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations; and
ii. The post-tax gain or loss recognized on the measurement to fair value less costs to sell
on the disposal of the assets or disposal group(s) constituting the discontinued operations
f. Profit or loss;
g. Each component of other comprehensive income classified by nature (excluding amounts in (h)
below);
h. Share Of the other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures accounted for using
the equity method; and
i. Total comprehensive income
a. total comprehensive income for the period showing separately the total amounts attributable to
owners of the parent and to minority interests;
b. for each component of equity, the effects of retrospective restatement recognized L in accordance
with IAS No. 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors;
c. the amounts of transactions with owners in their capacity as owners, showing separately
contributions by and distributions to owners; and
d. for each Component of equity, a reconciliation between the carrying amount at the beginning and
the end of the period, separately disclosing each change.
The components of equity referred to above include for example, each class of contributed equity, the
accumulated balance of each class of other comprehensive income and retained earnings (these are
applicable to corporations). The amount of dividends recognized as distributions to owners during the
period, and the related amount per share, shall be presented either in the statement of changes in equity
or in the notes.
Though some of the items are not as familiar yet, per revised International Accounting Standards (IAS)
No. 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, as a minimum, the face of the statement of financial position
shall include line items that present the following amounts:
AIS No, 1 (revised 2007) does not prescribe the order or format in which an entity presents items. The
above enumeration (from Paragraph 54 of IAS No. 1, revised 2007) simply provides a list of items that
are sufficiently different in nature or function to warrant a separate presentation in the statement of
financial position.
Note that an entity makes the judgment about whether to present additional items separately on the basis
of an assessment of:
a. the nature and liquidity of assets;
b. the function of assets within the entity; and
c. the amounts, nature and timing of liabilities.
Current and noncurrent assets and liabilities should be separately classified on the face of the statement
of financial position except when a presentation based on 'liquidity provides more reliable and relevant
information.
The statement of cash flows provides information about the cash receipts and cash payments of an entity
during a period. It is a formal statement that classifies cash receipts (inflows) and cash payments
(outflows) into operating, investing and financing activities. This statement shows the net increase or
decrease in cash during the period and the cash balance at the end of the period; it also helps project
the future net cash flows of the entity.

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
As everything in this world is bound to end, especially the relationship that once was built, but now were
lost, partnership is no exception to this. When one party in a partnership decided to break and end his
involvement in the business, dissolution happens. How does this work out in the end? Let’s find out in
the discussion below.
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
DISSOLUTION
The dissolution of a partnership is the change in the relation of the partners caused by any partner
ceasing to be associated in the carrying on as distinguished from the winding up of the business of the
partnership. On dissolution, the partnership is not terminated, but continues until the winding up of partnership
affairs is completed. When partnership dissolution occurs, a new accounting entity is formed. The old
partnership should first adjust its books so that all accounts are properly stated at the date of dissolution
WINDING UP
Winding up is the process of settling the business or partnership affairs after dissolution.
LIQUIDATION
A partnership is said to be liquidated when the business is terminated.
CAUSES OF DISSOLUTION
1. Admission of a partner
2. Withdrawal or retirement of a partner
3. Death of a partner
4. Incorporation of the partnership
1. ADMISSION OF A PARTNER
A new partner can only be admitted into a partnership with the consent of all the continuing partners.
This is based on the principle of delectus personae: No one becomes a member of the partnership
without the consent of all the members. This is because a partnership is based on mutual trust and
confidence of the partners.
A person may become a partner in an existing partnership by either of the following:
Illustration. Froilan Labausa and Reynaldo San Mateo are partners with capital balances of
P400,000 and P200,000, respectively. They share profits in the ratio of 3:1. Their business has
been very successful. All indications show that it will continue to be.
Case 1. Payment to old partners is equal to interest purchased. Partners Froilan Labausa and
Reynaldo San Mateo received an offer from Janet Matuguinas to purchase directly one-fourth of
each of their interest in the partnership for P150,000. The partners agreed to admit Janet
Matuguinas into the firm.
Computation:
Labausa: P400,000 x 1/4 P100,000
San Mateo: P200,000 x 1/4 50,000
Interest transferred to Matuguinas P150,000
Case 2. Payment to old partners is less than the interest purchased. Assume that Janet
Matuguinas directly purchased one-third of each partner's interest in the business. Matuguinas
paid P160,000 for one-third of each partner’s capital.
Computation:
Labausa: P400,000 x 1/3 P133,333
San Mateo: P200,000 x 1/3 66,667
Interest transferred to Matuguinas P200,000
Case 3. Payment to old partners is more than the interest purchased. Partners Froilan Labausa
and Reynaldo San Mateo received an offer from Janet Matuguinas to purchase directly of each of
their interest in the partnership for P200,000. The partners agreed to admit Janet Matuguinas as a
member of the firm.
Computation:
Labausa: P400,000 x 30% P120,000
San Mateo: P200,000 x 30% 60,000
Interest transferred to Matuguinas P180,000
• Total Contributed Capital. It is the sum of the capital balances of the old partners and the actual
investment of the new partner.
• Total Agreed Capital. It is the total capital of the partnership after considering the capital credits given to
each of the partners. Under the bonus method/ total agreed capital is equal to the total contributed capital
though the capital credits to each partner may be equal to, greater than or less than his capital contributions.
• Bonus. It is the amount of capital or equity transferred by one partner to another partner.
• Capital Credit. It is the equity of a partner in the new partnership and is obtained by multiplying the total
agreed capital by the applicable percentage interest of the partner.
A partnership may be exceptionally attractive because of superior earnings record such that
the old partners may demand a premium from a new partner. This premium increases the old
partners' capital interest.
Illustration. Rebecca Miranda and Kareen Leon are partners with capital balances of P400,000
and P200,000, respectively. They share profits in the ratio of 3:1. The partners agreed to admit
Gualberto Magdaraog Jr. as a member of the firm. The foregoing information will be the basis of
the following cases.
Case 1. Total agreed capital is stated. Assume that Gualberto Magdaraog Jr. invested P250,000
for a one-fourth interest in the business. The partners decided not to revalue the assets of the
partnership and that the total agreed capital is P850,000.
Journal Entries:
Cash 250,000
Gualberto Magdaraog Jr., Capital 250,000
To record the investment of Magdaraog.
Case 2. Total agreed capital is not explicitly stated. Assume that Gualberto Magdaraog Jr.
invested P400,000 in the business. Out of the total cash investment, P100,000 is considered as a
bonus to Partners Rebecca Miranda and Kareen Leon. The investment of Magdaraog resulted to a
bonus as stated. Under the bonus method, the total contributed capital is equal to the total agreed
capital. • It is also clearly specified that the old partners will receive the bonus.
Journal Entries:
Cash 400,000
Gualberto Magdaraog Jr., Capital 400,000
To record the investment of Magdaraog.
Case 1. Total agreed capital is stated. Assume that Gualberto Magdaraog Jr. invested 240,000
for a one-third interest in the business. The total agreed capital is P840,000. e investment of
Magdaraog resulted to a bonus as shown by the following table:
Contributed Bonus Agreed
Rebecca Miranda P400,000 (P30,000) P370,000
Kareen Leon 200,000 (P10,000) 190,000
Total P600,000 (P40,000) P560,000
Gualberto Magdaraog Jr. 240,000 40,000 280,000* 1/3 of Total Agreed
Capital
Total P840,000 P0 P840,000
*P840,000 x 1/3 = P280,000
Distribution of Bonus:
Miranda: P40,000 x 3/4 = P30,000
Leon: P40,000 x 1/4 = 10,000
Journal Entries:
Cash 240,000
Gualberto Magdaraog Jr., Capital 240,000
To record the investment of Magdaraog.
Case 2. Total agreed capital is not explicitly stated. Assume that Gualberto Magdaraog Jr.
invested P300,000 for a 50% interest in the business. Rebecca Miranda and Kareen Leon
transferred part of their capital balance to that of Gualberto Magdaraog Jr. as a bonus. The
investment of Magdaraog resulted to a bonus as stated. Under the bonus method, the total
contributed capital is equal to the total agreed capital. It is also clearly specified that the new
partner will receive the bonus.
Journal Entries:
Cash 300,000
Gualberto Magdaraog Jr., Capital 300,000

Direction: Determine the capital balances of Maniquiz, Monte, and Galang after Galang's admission to
the partnership.
The capital accounts of the Maniquiz and Monte partnership on Sept. 30, 2019 were:
Maniquiz, Capital (75% profit percentage) P140,000
Monte, Capital (25% profit percentage) 56,000
Total Capital P196,000
On Oct. 1, Galang was admitted to a 35% interest in the partnership when he purchased 35% of each
existing partner's capital for P100,000, paid directly to Maniquiz and Monte.
Direction: Prepare the journal entries to record the admission of Labalan and Magada.
The capital accounts of Loida Cardenas and Cristina San Jose have balances of P150,000 and
P110,000, respectively. Daria Labalan and Helen Magäda are to be admitted to the partnership.
Labalan buys one-fifth of Cardenas' interest for P35,000 and one-fourth of Sah Jose's interest for
P25,000. Magada contributes P70,000 cash to the partnership, for which she is to receive an ownership
equity of P70,000.

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
We’re done with partnership dissolution when a partner is admitted to the partnership, now let’s discuss
what happens to a partnership when a partner retires or become demised.
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
Illustration. Suppose that Remedios Palaganas is retiring in midyear from the partnership of Almazan,
Saclot and Palaganas because of family relocation. Physical distance will prevent her from coping with
the daily rigors of their fashion and beauty consulting business. After the books have been adjusted for
the semi-annual profits but before revaluation, their capital balances are as follows:
Melinda Almazan, Capital P540,000
Greg Saclot, Capital 430,000
Remedios Palaganas, Capital 210,000
Land 460,000
Melinda Almazan, Capital 115,000
Greg Saclot, Capital 230,000
Remedios Palaganas, Capital 115,000
To revalue land per appraisal.
After revaluation, the capital balances of the partners are shown below:
Melinda Almazan, Capital P640,000
Greg Saclot, Capital 630,000
Remedios Palaganasr Capital 310,000
Case 1. Withdrawal at book value. Assume that Remedios Palaganas agreed to accept payment
equal to her interest. The entry to record the payment of cash and the closing of her Capital account
will be:
Case 2. Withdrawal at more than book value. Assume that Remedios Palaganas demanded a
P400,000 settlement for her interest because she firmly believed that she has contributed so much to
the success of the business. The remaining partners agreed for old time's sake. 'If the current fair
value of the partnership's net assets exceeded book value, the settlement price to the withdrawing
partner will be greater than his capital account balance. The excess payment is treated either as a
bonus to the retiring partner from the continuing partners.
Case 3. Withdrawal at less than book value. Assume that Remedios Palaganas is very eager to
retire and is willing to accept settlement at P280,000. When Palaganas, the retiring partner, received
as settlement an amount less than her capital balance, in effect, the partner is giving a part of her
equity interest to the continuing partners as bonus, The amount of the bonus is credited to the capital
accounts of the continuing partners in their profit and loss ratio.
DEATH OF A PARTNER
The death of a partner dissolves a partnership. When the death of a partner does not result to
liquidation, the accounting procedures to be followed are similar to those discussed in the withdrawal of
a partner. The deceased partner may be considered to have retired from the partnership and his heirs or
estate can expect to receive the amount of his interest from the business. If payment to the estate of the
deceased cannot be made immediately, the balance in the capital account of the deceased partner
should be transferred to a liability account, payable to the estate.
INCORPORATION OF A PARTNERSHIP
A partnership may decide to incorporate after evaluating the various advantages of having a corporate
form of business organization. After the necessary adjusting and closing entries, the assets and
liabilities of the partnership are transferred to the corporation in exchange for shares of stock.
Illustration. Partners Madelyn Rialubin and Juanita Rabena, who share equally in profits and losses,
have the following items in their partnership's statement of financial position as at Dec. 31, 2019:
They agreed to incorporate their partnership, with the new corporation absorbing the net assets after the
following adjustments: providing for allowances for doubtful accounts of P10,000; restatement of the
inventory to its current fair Value of P160,000; and, additional recognition of depreciation on the
equipment of P3,000.
The corporation's share capital will have a par value of P 100, and the partners will be issued the shares
equivalent to their adjusted capital balances. The journal entries to incorporate the partnership will be:
Cash 120,000
Accounts Receivable 100,000
Inventory 160,000
Equipment 69,000
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 10,000
Accounts Payable 172,000
Ordinary Shares 267,000
2) Activity 2: Skill-building Activities (with answer key) (18 mins + 2 mins checking)
Directions: Try this exercise and see how well do you understand the concepts about partnership
dissolution. In the spaces provided, write T if the statement below is true otherwise F if it is false.
_____ 1) When a partner leaves a partnership, it is possible that total assets will be unaffected.
_____ 2) When new partners invest more than the equity interest they are to receive in the net assets
of an existing partnership, part of the entry to record the new partners' investments is an
increase in the capital accounts of the old partners.
_____ 3) When a new partner is given 30% interest in a partnership, he will receive 30% of all future

Productivity Tip: When you’re trying to study, avoid your bed as much as you can. Try to study in a
chair or at a desk, where you have to sit up and pay attention. If you let yourself lie down or try to
study in bed, you are guaranteed to feel sleepier and not be as productive. If you don’t really have
any other space to study, try to sit on your bed a different way, away from your pillows, so you’re
less tempted to fall asleep.
A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
A partnership starts with an agreement between two or more people who want to go into business
together. When a partnership ends, the partners begin a complicated process of fulfilling financial
obligations to creditors and each other. Partnership liquidation marks the official ending of a partnership
agreement. To end the partnership, the parties involved sell the property the business owns, and each
partner receives a share of the remaining money.
So let us now begin to discuss how partnership business relationship ends. We encourage you to take
note for the unfamiliar words or phrases you find challenging to understand and look its meaning in
your dictionary. Enjoy learning!
B. MAIN LESSON
LIQUIDATION
The liquidation of a partnership is the winding up of its business activities characterized by sale of
all non-cash assets, settlement of all liabilities and distribution of the remaining cash to the partners.
REALIZATION
The conversion of non-cash assets into cash is referred to as realization. This may either result to a
gain or loss on realization and shall be divided in the profit and loss ratio of the partners.
CAPITAL DEFICIENCY
A substantial loss on realization which might yield for a partner.
PARTNER’S INTEREST
The sum of partner’s capital and loan accounts in the partnership.
ASSETS OF THE
1 outside creditors
PARTNERSHIP
inside creditors in the form of loans or advances
• partnership property 2 for business expenses by the partners
• additional contributions of
the partners needed for 3 partners with respect to their capital contributions
the payment of all
liabilities
4 partners with respect to their share of the profits
The second preference above gives the partner with the loan account the option to exercise his right of
offset. This privilege is the legal right of a partner to apply part or all of his loan account balance against
his capital deficiency resulting from losses in the realization of the partnership assets.
Illustration. Winston Apalisoc, Beatriz Onate and Emerita Geron are partners in a prawn export
business. initially, Winston Apalisoc contributed P300,000; Beatriz Onate, P200,000 and Emerita Geron
P100,000. On the date of dissolution, the remaining assets of the partnership amounted to P1,000,000.
The partnership has outstanding obligations with Neo Aglugub, P140,000; Placido Tuddao, P100,000
and loans payable to Winston Apalisoc, P40,000. The accounts of the Apalisoc, Onate and Geron
partnership shall be settled as follows:
1. First, Neo Aglugub and Placido Tuddao who are outside creditors shall be paid the total sum of
P240,000; thus, leaving a balance of P760,000 (P1,000,000 - P240,000) in partnership assets;
2. Second, Winston Apalisoc who is an inside creditor shall be paid his loan to the partnership of
P40,000; balance at P720,000 (P760,000 - P40,000);
3. Third, the total contributions of Apalisoc, Onate and Geron to the initial partnership capital in the
amount of P600,000 will be paid; balance of assets at P120,000 (P720,000 - P600,000);
4. Lastly, the balance of P120,000 shall be distributed to the partners in the ratio of their capital
contributions since there was no mention of an agreement governing the division of profits or
losses. Therefore, Winston Apalisoc shall be entitled to 3/6 of P120,000 or P60,000; Beatriz
Onate, 2/6 or P40,000 and Emerita Geron, 1/6 or P20,000.

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
Hold on, dear student, we are now on the last part of our modules for partnership. So let us continue
our discussion for partnership liquidation.
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
• Lump-sum Method
Under this method, all non-cash assets are realized and the related gains or losses distributed
and all liabilities are paid before a single final cash distribution is made to the partners
• Installment Method.
Under this method, realization of non-cash assets is accomplished over an extended period of
time. When cash is available, creditors may be partially or fully paid. Any excess may be
distributed to the partners in accordance with a program of safe payments or a cash priority
program. This process persists until all the non-cash assets are sold.
Illustration. Assuming that because of the total partnership liabilities amounting to P1,120,000. Emerita
Geron is still personally liable to partnership creditors in the amount of P20,000. Her separate properties
in the amount of P90,000 shall first be applied to settle her personal obligations of P80,000 to Patrocinio
Abad and the balance of P 10,000 to pay one-half of her liability of P20,000 to the creditors of the
partnership. This is in consonance with the rule that separate creditors are preferred over partnership
creditors as regards separate properties of a partner.
The procedures in liquidation after the adjustment and closing of books will be dependent on the above
rules. It will be advisable to have a mastery of these principles to be able to fully understand the
liquidation of partnerships.
The use of a statement of liquidation will greatly aid the liquidating partner summarize the events and
transactions associated with the liquidation of the partnership.

balances were ₱400,000 and ₱800,000, respectively. The partners share profits and losses on a
60:40 ratio. Before liquidation, the partnership had ₱80,000 cash and ₱120,000 liabilities. The
partnership incurred loss of ₱480,000 on the sale of non-cash assets. A is solvent but B is insolvent.
The following condensed statement of financial position is presented for the partnership of AA,
BB and CC, who share profits and losses in the ratio of 4:4:2, respectively:

Total Assets P 480,000
Liabilities P 180,000
AA, Capital 48,000
BB, Capital 216,000
CC, Capital 36,000
Total Liabilities and Capital P 480,000
The partners agreed to dissolve the partnership after selling the other assets for P200,000.

FAQs
1. What would be the rule, if the partnership agreement is not clear on the treatment of salary allowances
when losses are incurred?
- In the absence of an agreement to govern this situation, salary allowances will be provided even
when operations yielded losses.
2. What is the effect to the allocation of profits or losses when partners’ agreement allows salaries,
interest on capital and bonus?
- The service contributions and capital contributions of the partners are often not equal. If the
service contributions are not equal, salary allowances can compensate for the differences. Or,
when capital contributions are not equal, the interest allowances can make up for the unequal
investments.

Corporations influence the economy of our country as well as our lives. These corporations are
responsible in providing us essential products available for our daily living. A corporation, like sole
proprietorship and partnership, may be engaged in rendering services, buying and selling goods and
even manufacturing of products.

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
1) Introduction (2 mins)
In this module, you will learn the accounting for share capital, subscriptions, and treasury stocks which
are important for each shareholder in a corporation. Have a great day ahead!
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 1: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
The accounting for assets and liabilities is similar regardless of the form of a business organization. The
only difference is the owners’ equity section. Sole proprietorships and partnerships use capital accounts
while corporation has shareholder’s equity in its statement of financial position.
Shareholders’ Equity is the residual interest of the shareholders in the assets of a corporation
after deducting all of its liabilities. It is divided into three subsections, namely:
1. Share Capital – represents the amount invested by shareholders
2. Reserve – includes share premium, appropriation reserve, revaluation surplus reserve and
foreign currency translation reserve
3. Retained Earnings – represents the accumulated profits and losses gained and incurred from the
previous years of operation
1. Share Capital
✓ It is the shares to be subscribed and paid in or secured to be paid in by the
shareholders, either in money, property or services, at the time of organization of the
corporation or afterwards, and upon which is to conduct its operations.
✓ It is the amount of capital fixed or indicated in the articles of incorporation which is
divided in shares of stock
✓ The share, contributed or paid-in capital is further divided into the following:
a. Legal Capital is the portion of the contributed capital of the minimum amount of
paid-in capital, which must remain in the corporation for protection of corporate
creditors. In case of:
Par value shares, legal capital is the aggregate par value of all issued and
subscribed shares.
No-par shares, legal capital is the total consideration received by the corporation
for the issuance of its shares to the shareholders including the excess of issue
price over stated value (Section 6, par. 3, Corporation of the Phils.).
b. Share Premium (Additional Paid-In Capital). It is the portion of the paid capital
representing amounts by paid b shareholders in excess of par.
✓ It is basically classified into two, namely:
a. Ordinary share - This share represents the basic ownership class of the
corporation that bears the ultimate risk of loss which guaranteed neither dividends
nor assets upon dissolution.
b. Preference share - This share gives the ownership certain advantages over
ordinary shareholders either to the receipt of dividends when declare or to priority
claims on assets in the events of corporate liquidation.
2. Authorized Share Capital
✓ The number of authorized share indicates the maximum number of share the corporation
can issue as specified in the article of incorporation.
✓ without par value, the proceeds should be credited to the share capital account. If the non-
par stock has a stated value, the excess proceeds over stated value may alternatively be
credited to share premium
Share capital may be issued in exchange for any of the following considerations.
1. Actual cash paid to the corporation;
2. Tangible or intangible properties actually received by the corporation;
3. Labor already performed for or services actually rendered to the corporation;
4. Previously incurred indebtedness by the corporation;
5. Amounts transferred from unrestricted retained earnings to stated capital;
6. Outstanding shares exchanged for stocks in the event of reclassification or conversion;
7. Shares of stock in another corporation; and/or
8. Other general accepted form of consideration.
SUBSCRIPTION OF SHARES
There are times when a corporation sells its shares directly to investors on subscription basis. A
subscriber becomes a shareholder upon subscription but the stock certificates evidencing ownership
over shares of stock are not issued until the full collection of the subscription.
Illustration. Warranty Auto Shop, Inc. is a quality car care center located at St. Paul St., San Antonio
Village, Makati City. Assume that 5,000 shares of P10 par value ordinary shares of the corporation
were sold on subscription at P12 per share on Sept. 1, 2019 to Ashley Langga. Subscription
installments of P24,000 and P36,000 will be due on Sept. 16 and 30, respectively.
Cash 24,000
Subscriptions Receivable 24,000
To record initial installment
Cash 36,000
Subscriptions Receivable 36,000
To record final installment
Think of it! What if the subscriber fails to settle the subscriptions in full on the date specified in the
subscription contract?
In such case, the subscribed shares are declared delinquent shares. The usual remedy is to dispose
of these shares in a public auction of the account of the delinquent subscriber to the highest bidder
who is willing to pay the “offer price” which includes the full amount of the subscription balance accrued
interest, cost of advertisement and expenses of auction sale in exchange for the smallest number of
shares.
Illustration. Assuming the same facts as above except that the subscriber failed to settle part of his
subscriptions in the amount of 48,000. After complying with legal procedures pertaining to delinquency
sales, a public auction was held. The offer price is P56,000 including P3,000 accrued interest and
P5,000 expenses of sale. Three bidders are willing to pay the offer price namely:
Lemore Loqueloque 4,300 shares
Luz Un 4,500 shares
Winnie Villanueva 4,700 shares
Who is the highest bidder among the three? How many shares the original subscriber will get?
Loqueloque is the highest bidder because he is willing to pay the offer price for smallest number of
shares which is 4,300 shares. Ashley Lannga, the original subscriber, gets 700 shares.
Cash 12,000
Subscriptions Receivable 12,000
To record partial initial installment
Cash 56,000
Receivable from Highest Bidder 8,000
Subscriptions Receivable 48,000
To record sale and public auction
Think of it! What if there is no any bidder? In this case, the corporation may bid for the delinquent
shares and the total amount due shall be credited as paid in full in the book of corporation. These
shares shall be considered as treasury shares. All the other entries will be the same except for the
following:
Treasury Stock 56,000
Receivable from Highest Bidder 8,000

SHARED-BASED PAYMENTS
Measurement
• Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at fair value of the goods or
services received. If the fair value of the goods or services received cannot be reliably
determined, then the fair value of the equity instruments is used. The measurement date is the
date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders services.
• Share-based payments to employees including share options, the transaction should be
measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted because the fair value of the
Definition of Terms
• The grant date is the date at which the entity and another party (including an employee)
agree to a share-based payment arrangement. At grant date, the entity confers on the
counterparty the right to cash or equity instruments of the entity, provided the specified vesting
conditions, if any, are met.
• To vest means to become an entitlement. Under a share-based payment arrangement, a
counterparty's right to receive cash or equity instruments of the entity vests when the
counterparty's entitlement is no longer conditional on the satisfaction of any vesting
conditions. The vesting date is when the cash or equity instruments granted vest.
• The vesting period is the period during which all the specified vesting conditions of a Share-
based payment arrangement are to be satisfied.
• Vesting conditions are the conditions that determine whether the entity receives the services
that entitle the counterparty to receive cash or equity instruments of the entity, under a share-
based payment arrangement.
o Service conditions require the counterparty to complete a specified period of service.
o Performance conditions require the counterparty to complete a specified period of
service and specified performance targets to be met.

TREASURY STOCKS
• are shares of stock which have been issued and fully paid for, but subsequently reacquired by the
issuing corporation either by purchase, redemption, donation or through other lawful means.
• Section 40 of the Revised Corporation Code provides that a stock corporation has the power to
purchase its own shares for a legitimate purpose provided it has unrestricted retained earnings.
• If an entity reacquires its own equity instruments, these instruments (‘treasury shares’) shall be
deducted from equity. No gain or loss shall be recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale,
issue or cancellation of an entity’s own equity instruments. (IAS No.32, par.33)
• Treasury stock is not an asset because the corporation may not own shares of itself. To reiterate, it
is reported as a deduction from the total shareholders' equity.
Illustration. Plantation EcoResort is a world class destination in Indang, Cavite. The operations have
been successful. To consolidate control over the enterprise and thus avoid a corporate takeover by
outsiders, the board of directors decided to minimize outstanding shares by purchasing 1,500 shares
with par value of P1,000 for P2,000. The entry will be:
b. Below cost. Assume that the 1,500 treasury shares were reissued at P1,500 per share.

Retained Earnings 750,000
Treasury Stock 3,000,000

To record retirement of treasury shares.
b. With loss on retirement. Assume that a total of 10,000 shares have been issued at P1,500
per share prior to the purchase or treasury shares. Plantation EcoResort purchaced 1,500
treasury shares for 2,000 per share; these were not reissued and were ultimately retired.
The “loss” on retirement of P1,500,000 should be debited to the following accounts in the order
given:
1. share premium to the extent of the credit when the share is issued.
2. share premium from treasury stock transactions of the same class or share;
3. retained earnings.
DONATED CAPITAL
• Contributions, including shares of the corporation, received from shareholders should be
recorded at the fair market value of the items received, with the credit going to share premium.
• If significant, such contributions may be designated as donated capital.
• If the donation is in the form of shares of the corporation, the account share premium or
donated capital is credited at the time the shares are reissued.

Recapitalization is manifested when there is a change in the capital structure of the corporation. The
typical capitalizations are as follows:

2. What will happen in case the amount of retained earnings is not sufficient to absorb the so called
“losses on treasury shares?
- In the first place, the corporation will not be able to acquire its own shares if the amount of its
retained earnings is not sufficient to cover the cost of the treasury shares. In other words,
there is no possibility of having treasury share; there can be no reissuance. (Aduana, Nick L.,

B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
RETAINED EARNINGS
Retained earnings represent the component of the shareholders' equity arising from the retention of
assets generated from the profit-directed activities of the corporation.
DIVIDENDS
Distributions to shareholders of cash, property or stocks from unrestricted retained earnings on the
basis of all issued and fully paid shares, and all subscribed par value shares except treasury shares
are called dividends. Dividend declarations reduce retained earnings.
DEFICIT
A debit balance in the Retained Earnings account resulting from accumulated losses.
Date of Declaration
On the date of declaration, the board of directors will adopt a resolution declaring that a dividend
is to be paid. The resolution will specify the amount, type and date of payment of this dividend. It
will also set a date of record. An entry is made debiting Retained Earnings and crediting a
dividend liability or Shares Distributable account.
- Cash dividends - declared solely by the board of directors
- Share dividends - concurrence of at least 2/3 of the outstanding shareholders
Date of Record
A list of shareholders entitled to the declared dividends is prepared at the date of record. If an
investor buys a share of stock after this date, he will not receive the dividend. The share is said to
be traded ex-dividend. No entry is required on this date.
Date of Payment
The corporation settles its liability on this date. An entry is made debiting the dividend liability or
shares distributable account and crediting cash, property distributed or share capital.
CASH DIVIDENDS
In declaring cash dividends, a corporation must have both an appropriate amount of retained earnings
and the necessary amount of cash. Dividends on par value shares are stated as a certain percentage of
the par value. As to no-par value shares, the dividends are stated at a certain amount per share. When
the board of directors declares a cash dividend, an entry is made debiting Retained Earnings and
crediting Cash Dividends Payable.
Illustration. Made Easy Bookstore, Inc., a nationally-known business books distribution entity, declared
a cash dividend of P12 per share of ordinary shares on July 1. The dividends are payable on August 1 to
shareholders of record on July 21. The entity has 100,000 ordinary shares issued of which 7,000 shares
are held in treasury. The entries to record the dividend declaration and payment are as follows:
The account, Cash Dividends Declared, may be used in place of the debit to Retained Earnings, At the
end of the accounting period, this temporary shareholders' equity account will be closed by debiting
Retained Earnings and crediting Cash Dividends Declared.
Cash dividends payable are reported as current liabilities in the statement of financial position. Note that
cash dividends decrease total assets and total shareholders' equity. It is worthwhile to reiterate that with
the exception of treasury shares, all issued and fully paid shares, and all subscribed par value shares
are entitled to dividends when declared. The subscribed shares must be par value shares. No-par value
shares are considered as legally issued only when fully paid. Unissued shares, subscribed no-par
shares and treasury shares are not entitled to dividends.
PROPERTY DIVIDENDS
A distribution to shareholders that is payable in non-cash assets is generally referred to as property
dividends or dividends in kind. An entity shall measure a liability to distribute non-cash assets as a
dividend to its owners at the fair value of the assets to be distributed.
Illustration. 3S Food Industries, Inc. based in Pulilan, Bulacan has 5,000 shares investment in another
entity accounted for as nonmarketable equity investment. The carrying amount of this investment is
P500,000. On Dec. 1, 2019, this growing food corporation declared as property dividends this
investment to all it outstanding par value shares to be distributed on Dec. 15, 2019. The fair market
value of the investment at the declaration date was P950,000. There was no change in fair value on
settlement date, The entries to record the dividend declaration and distribution are as follows:
SHARE DIVIDENDS
A corporation may distribute to shareholders additional shares of the entity's own share as share
dividends. Share dividends or bonus issues are fundamentally different from cash or property dividends
because share dividends do not transfer assets to the shareholders. This type of dividend affects only
the accounts within the shareholders' equity. Share dividends increase the total share capital and
decrease the retained earnings account. Because both of these are components of shareholders' equity,
total shareholders' equity is unchanged.
Illustration. Siobe! Your Japanese Fastfood, Inc. chain is blessed with years of profitable operations for
its commitment to serve affordable and healthy Japanese food favorites. The shareholders equity before
declaration of a 10% share dividend is as follows:
The declaration of a 10% share dividend will require the issuance of an additional 2,000 shares. Assume
that the corporation's share is being traded at the stock exchange and that the stock market price per
share is P10. The fair market value of the shares to be distributed is P220,000. The entries will be:
Illustration. Assume instead that Siobe! Your Japanese Fastfood, Inc. chain declared a 20% share
dividend on its 20,000 issued and outstanding P50 par value shares. The corporation will issue
additional 4,000 shares due to the share dividend. The entries will be:
Retained Earnings 200,000
Shares Distributable 200,000
To record declaration of 20% share dividends.

_____ 1) Share dividends increase the proportionate interests of the shareholders because of the
increase in their shareholdings.
_____ 2) For most companies, the amount and timing of dividend declarations are determined by the
shareholders at their annual meeting.
_____ 3) Retained earnings consist of a pool of funds to be distributed to shareholders.
_____ 4) A liquidating dividend is usually paid when a corporation is going out of business or reducing
its operations.
_____ 5) Dividends are contractual obligations of the corporation which must be paid at regular
intervals.
_____ 6) In case of liquidation, the claims of the preference shareholders are given preference over the
claims of creditors.
_____ 7) Retained earnings represent cash readily available for dividends.
_____ 8) Dividends in arrears refer to passed preference dividends which must be satisfied before any
dividends may be paid on ordinary shares.
_____ 9) In most cases, corporations pay out dividends equal to profit unless specific restrictions, either
legal or financial, are stated in the annual report.
_____ 10) The date on a statement of changes in shareholders' equity is for a period of time rather than
for a specific point in time.

for corporations and retained earnings. So let’s now continue with our discussion.
B. MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Pre-Printed Content Notes (13 mins)
SHARE SPLITS
Corporations reduce the par or stated value of its share capital and issues additional shares to its
shareholders through the practice referred to as share splits. The par or stated value per share will
decrease with a corresponding increase in the number of authorized, issued and outstanding shares. In
effect, there is no change in the balances of the shareholders' equity accounts. The following are some
reasons behind a share split:
• To adjust the market price of the corporation's shares to a level where more individuals can
afford to invest in the stock.
• To spread the shareholder base by increasing the number of outstanding shares.
• To benefit existing shareholders by allowing them to take advantage of an imperfect
adjustment following the split.
When shares are selling below a desired price or when management wishes to take control of the entity,
the corporation may consider a reverse split that can be accomplished by increasing the par or stated
value of its share and reducing the shares outstanding. There will be no journal entry required; a memo
entry is sufficient.
Illustration. Assume that Severino Ramos Security Agency has a total share equity of P180,000 and
5,000 shares of ordinary shares outstanding. The book value per share is P36 (P180,000/5,000 shares).
When both preference and ordinary shares are outstanding, the preference shareholders have
preference over ordinary shareholders as to the distribution of assets upon corporate liquidation.
The book value per share of the preference shares is the sum of its liquidation value, if applicable, plus
any current and dividends in arrears divided by the number of preference shares' outstanding.
Ordinary shareholders' equity is obtained by deducting from total shareholders' equity the preference
shareholders' equity. The book value per share of the ordinary shares is computed by dividing the
ordinary shareholders' equity by the number of ordinary shares outstanding.
