1.1 INTRODUCTION
A Partnership is defined by section 4 of the Indian Partnership Act 1932,
as “The relation between persons who have agreed to share profits of
business carried on by all or by any of them acting for all: Persons who
have entered into Partnership are individually called as Partners and
collectively called as a firm.
1.1.1 There are three important characteristics of Partnership
1) There should be AGREEMENT between two or more persons.
2) This agreement must be to SHARE the profits of the business. munotes.in

Page 2


Financial Accounting
(Special Accounting
Areas) III

2 3) The business must be carried on by all the partners or by any one of the
partner acting for all of them.
1.2 PARTNERSHIP DEED
We have seen above that Partnership is created by an AGREEMENT. It is
not necessary to have a written agreement. However written agreement is
desirable because it can avoid dispute in future. The Deed of Partnership
is a document in writing which contains the important ter ms that the
partners have agreed among themselves. The partnership deed should be
properly drafted and stamped as required by Stamp Act.
1.2.1 Partnership deed specific: -
In case of specific Provision in the Partnership deed (which may be oral or
writte n), the appropriation (or distribution) of Profit is done accordingly.
1.2.2 Partnership deed is silent (or absence of Partnership deed): -
In this case, following provisions of section 13 of the Indian Partnership
Act, 1932 would be applicable: -
1) Intere st on capital - Not Allowed.
2) Interest on capital - Such interest is payable only if allowed by
the partnership deed. Out of profits.
3) Interest on drawings - Not Allowed.
4) Salary to Partners - Not Allowed.
5) Commission to Partners - Not Allowed.
6) Interest on Partners loan - 6% p.a. allowed.
7) Profit/ or Loss SharingRratio - Equal for all Partners (Even if Partner’s
capital may be unequal).
1.3 PARTNERSHIP FINAL ACCOUNTS
Each partner should know the financial performance of the busin ess for
the year. Each partner has unlimited liability and therefore, he should also
know the state of affairs (i.e. Assets and Liabilities) on a particular date.
The accounts of a partnership business are prepared on the basis of double
entry as well as accrual basis. The accounts consider outstanding
expenses, prepaid expenses, outstanding Income, etc. to determine profit
(or loss) during the accounting year.
The final accounts of partnership firm includes: -
1) Trading Account to disclose the Gross Pr ofit (or Gross Loss) during
the accounting year. munotes.in

Page 3


Partnership Final
Accounts I
3 2) Profit and Loss Account to disclose Net Profit (or Net Loss) during the
accounting year.
3) Profit and Loss Appropriation Account to disclose the distribution of
Net Profit (or Net Loss) among partners after considering interest on
partners capital, interest on drawing, salary to partners etc. If there is
no appropriation, then the net profit from the Profit and Loss Account
is transferred to Capital.
4) Balance Sheet to disclose the Assets and Liabili ties at the end of the
accounting year.
5) Manufacturing Account may be prepared (in addition to Trading
Account) to disclose Cost of Goods produced and other elements of
cost taking figure in Manufacturing Account shows cost of production,
which should b e transferred to Trading Account.
6) Partners Capital Accounts are prepared separately and then the closing
balance is transferred to the Balance Sheet. When Partners Capital A/c,
If Partner’s Capital A/c are fixed, it is transferred to Current Account.
1.4 PROFIT AND LOSS APPROPRIATION A/C
This is a special Account prepared in case of only PARTNERSHIP firm.
It shows how the Net profit/Net Loss has been distributed (Appropriated)
amongst Partners.
Note: In case of Partnership firm any remuneration paid o r payable to
partners in the form of salary, rent. Interest on capital, commission etc. is
treated as distribution of profit and not as business expense. Therefore the
above expenses if paid or payable to partners shall not be debited to Profit
and Loss Account but shall be debited to Profit and Loss Appropriation
A/c.
Thus this A/c will be debited by:
1) Net Loss (transferred from credit side of Profit & Loss Account)
2) Salaries, Rent, Interest on Capital, Commission etc. to Partners
This A/c will be credited by
1) Net Profit (transferred from the Debit side of Profit & Loss A/c)
2) Interest on Drawing charged to Partners.
The difference in this account will show the Final Net Profit/Loss which
can distributed amongst the partners in their profit sh aring ratio.
If the Credit side is heavier -profit to be distributed
If the Debit side is heavier –Loss transferred to Partners Account

4 1.4.1 INTEREST ON CAPITAL OR SALARY ETC
Interest or Salary is payable only out of the Profit (i.e. on appropriation of
Profit). Therefore,
1) In case of loss, no interest or Salary is allowed.
2) In case if Profit is less than Interest, etc then such interest etc. is
limited to the extent of profit.
However, the partner may decide to waive such intimation (by specific
provision in the partnership deed) that interest, etc. is allowed even (if
there is a loss) then the amount of loss is increased and such increased
(entire) loss is shared by the partner in the profit (and loss) sharing ratio.
1.4.2 INTEREST ON DRAWINGS
The partner may be charged Interest on the Drawing. So as to make
distribution of profit more equitable, Interest on Drawing is charged on the
different amounts withdrawn on the different dates during the accounting
year. The interest on drawings is cal culated by the Product Method or the
Average Due Date Method. Usually, when a partner draws a fixed amount
monthly, then the interest on drawings is calculated as follows: -
Withdrawals Interest on total Drawings
a) Beginning of each month
(e.g. 1st January ,1st February
… 1st December

b) Middle of each month (not
given) (e.g. 15th January, 14th
February,…. 15th December)

c) End of each month (e.g. 31st
January, 28th February, 31st
December)
For 6.5 month


For 6 mont h


For 5.5 month

1.5 GUARANTEE OF PROFITS TO/ OR BY A PARTNER
According to the partnership deed, one or few partners are guaranteed a
minimum amount of profit, therefore, such partner would receive
guaranteed (minimum) profit or profit as per profit sha ring ratio which
ever is higher.
The different types of guarantee arrangements are as follows: -
1) A Partner is given an undertaking that his share in profits (including
salary, interest on capital etc) will not be below a certain amount. Such
guaran tee may be given by one partner or by all other remaining partners.
Usually, in such a case in future, when the concerned Partner’s share of munotes.in

Page 5


Partnership Final
Accounts I
5 profit exceeds the minimum limits then the excess profit (above minimum
limit) is refunded (to the extent profits overdrawn in the past)
2) A partner guarantees that the profit of the firm would above a certain
figure in such case the profit is lower, then the guarantor partner’s account
is debited and profit and loss Appropriation A/c is credited.
3) A partner guar antees that, if particular partner’s share of profit exceeds
a certain amount, then he would suffer to the extent of difference (i.e. to
the extent of profit above certain amount the guarantor partner would
receive less profits).
1.6 JOINT LIFE POLICY
The object of taking life policy on the lives of the partner is to insure
against the chances or disturbance in the business due to death of any one
of the partners. The amount payable to the legal representative of the
deceased partner is paid out of the poli cy amount received from the
Insurance Company; otherwise, the assets may have to be sold, which may
result in the disturbance to or closure of the business. The firm can take
one Joint Policy on the life of all partners, or otherwise, it may take
separate policies on the life of each partner.
Accounting treatment may be one of the following three ways: -
1.6.1 Premium paid is treated as expense of the firm and debited to
Profit and Loss A/c when amount is received it is credited to Partners
Capital in the ir profit sharing ratio
1.6.2 When premium paid is treated as assets : - In this case premium
paid is debited to Joint Life Policy A/c. Joint Life Policy A/c is kept at
surrender value, on date of balance -sheet. The balance in Policy A/c in
excess of sur render value is treated as loss and transferred to P & L A/c.
When amount received on surrender of policy or maturity of policy, is
credited to Joint Life Policy A/c. Balance in Joint Life Policy being pro fit
credited to Partners Capital A/c in their pro fit sharing ratio.
1.6.3 When premium paid treated as asset and Joint life policy
reserve is maintained. In this case premium paid is debited to Joint Life
Policy A/c at the end of the year Joint Life Policy Reserve is created to the
extent of premium p aid by debiting to Profit and Loss A/c and crediting to
Joint life policy reserve a/c. Both Joint Life Policy and Joint Life Policy
Reserve A/c are brought down to surrender value by debiting Joint Life
Policy Reserve A/c crediting Joint Life Policy A/c. At the end of the year
Joint Life Policy is shown on Assets side of the Balance Sheet. Joint Life
Policy Reserve a/c is shown on the Liability side of the Balance Sheet.
On the maturity of the policy or when policy is surrendered following
entries are passed.

(3) Fees Earned
Lets assume, average monthly work in first three quarters
be 2x per month. Therefore, average monthly work in last
Quarter = 3x per months.
Work (01 -01-2013 to 30 -9-2013) = 2x for 9 mths. = 18x
Work (01 -10-2013 to 31 -12-2013) = 3x for 3 mths. = 9x
Therefore, Work upto 30 -9-2013 and after 01 -10-2013 is in
2:1.
(4) Goodwill Adjustment
As the new profit sharing ratio is not specified, the sacrifice
by old partners (Gan dhi and Gujar) is in old profit sharing ratio

1) Sale or Return Goods:
(a) 50% of the goods accepted by the customer and 10% of the goods
for which no intimation is received but period of approval has
expired should be considered as a sale. These goods are already
include in sales and debtors & therefore no adjustment entry is
required for 60% of the goods.
(b) Balance 40% (i.e. 100% -50%-10%) goods, for which period of
approval is not expired cannot be considered as sale. Therefo re
(i) Cancel sales (i.e. less from sales and less from debtors) = 40%
for Rs. 25000=Rs. 10000
(ii) Include in closing stock = 40% of 15000 (cost) = Rs. 6000
(i.e., at cost and market value, whichever is less).
2) Sales ratio:
Let us assume sa les for remaining months=2x each.
Sales for specified months = x each.
Sales from 1 -4-2008 to 31 -12-2008 (9 months)
Apr May Jun July Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Total
2x +x +x +2x +x +x +x +x +x =11x
Sales from 1 -1-2009 to 31 -3-2009 (3 months)
Jan Feb Mar Total
X +2x +x =4x
Therefore, Sales 9 months : months :11:4.
(3) Depreciation :
Method of depreciation is not specified and therefore dep. is
provided on reducing balance method.

(5) Fixed capital adjustments :
Fixed capital of Amit 16000
Therefore, Fixed capital of Deepak (16000x8/1) 128000
Therefore, Fixed capital of Ram (16000x4/1) 64000
(a) Shortfall of Deepak
Shortfall of Rs. 32000 (i.e, 128000 -96000) should be
debited to Deepak’s current account.
(b) Shortfall of Ram
Shortfall of Rs. 16000(i.e., 64000 -48000) should be
brought in cash by Ram.
Therefore, cash balance increased by Rs. 160 00

4.0 OBJECTIVE
After studying the unit the student will be able to:
 Classify the liabilities of the business.
 Describe the methods of allocation of cash among the partners.
 Solve the practical problems.
4.1 INTRODUCTION
In the previous chapter we have studied Dissolution of Partnership Firm.
On dissolution of the firm business of the firm i s closed, all the assets of
the firm are sold and all the liabilities of the firm are paid off. The surplus
remaining thereafter is paid to the partners against their loan account and
their capital account balances. Here we assume that all these transact ions
take place on the same day. But in practice it takes time to dispose off all
the assets. The payment of liabilities has to be done as and when the cash
is available. It has to be in a specific order. This recovery of assets in
installments and pay ment of liabilities in installments is called as
PIECEMEAL DISTRIBUTION OF CASH.
4.2 CLASSIFICATION OF LIABILITIES
1. External Liabilities
2. Internal Liabilities
3. Partner’s Capital Accounts munotes.in

Page 94


Financial Accounting
(Special Accounting
Areas) III

94 4.2.1 External Liabilities
These are amounts payable to outside parties. These are further classified
into
a. Preferential Liabilities:
These include amounts payable in priority to all liabilities. These are
Government dues like Income Tax, Sales Tax, Excise Duties etc.
Employees’ Dues like outstanding wages, outstanding salar ies, provident
fund dues, etc.
Dissolution expenses : These are the expenses incurred for the purpose of
successful carrying out of dissolution like payment for preparation of
dissolution deed, advertisement and brokerage for disposal of assets.
b. Other Liab ilities :
These are further classified into:
Secured liabilities : These are liabilities / loans secured against some or all
the assets of the firm. If it is secured by a charge on a specific asset then
amount realized by sell of that particular asset shal l be utilized for
payment of these liabilities. For example bank overdraft secured against
stock, mortgage loan against land and buildings. If these liabilities are not
secured against a specific asset but on all the assets in general then amount
realize d shall be first utilized to pay off these liabilities.
Unsecured Liabilities : These are liabilities incurred during the normal
course of business for which no security is given. For example sundry
creditors, bills payable, loan from spouse of partner, et c. these liabilities
are paid when all above liabilities are paid in full. If the amount available
with the firm is not sufficient to pay all these liabilities, then the amount is
paid in the ratio of their out standings.
4.2.2 Internal liabilities
Partne r’s loans: If a partner has given any loan to the firm then it will be
paid after all the above liabilities have been paid in full but before
anything is paid to partners against their capital accounts. If two or more
partners have given loans to the firm and cash available is insufficient to
pay these loans in full then the amount will be paid in the ratio of
outstanding balance of the loan.
4.2.3 Partners Capital Account
After all the above liabilities are paid the cash available is paid to partners
against their capital account by adopting any one of the following two
methods.
Excess Capital Method (Highest Relative Capital Method/Quotient
Method) Maximum Loss Method (Not in the syllabus)
munotes.in

Page 95


Piecemeal Distribution
95 4.2.3.1 Excess Capital Methods / Proportionate Capital Method -
This method is applied where the partners have not contributed their
capitals in the profit sharing ratio. Some partner have contributed more
capitals than other partners. Hence it is required to pay such partners
before other partners are paid. The metho d of calculating surplus capitals
is as follows –
Step No. Particulars
I Computation of Adjusted Capital:
Take capital account balances as per Balance Sheet
Add: General Reserve/Reserve funds/Profit and Loss
A/c Credit Balance in Profit Sharing R atio
Less: Profit and Loss A/c Debit Balance

II Write Profit Sharing Ratio

III Find Capital Contribution per unit of profit i.e. Step I / Step II

IV Find out the partners with lowest capital contribution per unit of
profit. Taking his capita l as base find out Proportionate Capital of
all the partners.

V Find out the Excess Capital – Step I - Step IV (Adjusted
Capital – Proportionate Capital)
If there’re more than two partners then do the same process again

VI Write Profit Sharing R atio

VII Find capital contribution per unit of profit – Step V / Step VI

VIII Find out the partners with lowest capital contribution per unit of
profit. Taking this capital as base find out proportionate capital of
all the partners.

IX Find ou t the Excess Capital – Step V -- Step VIII

96 4.3 ORDER OF PAYMENT OF CASH TO PARTNERS:
After cash is paid for all internal and external liabilities cash should be
paid to partners against their capital accounts as follows : (Step No. IX,
Step No. VIII, St ep No. IV)
a) Pay to the partner who is having ultimate excess. (Step No. IX)
b) Pay out the excess amount of other partners in their Profit Sharing
Ratio. (Step No. VIII)
c) After the payment of excess capital, the capitals of the partners will be
in their profit sharing ratio. (Step No. IV) All the available cash should
be paid in Profit sharing ratio.
d) If any partner is taken over any asset then it should be assumed that he
brings necessary cash in the firm. It should be added in the cash
available and then total available cash should be distributed among the
partners as above.
e) The balance left unpaid represents loss on realization. Payment more
than the dues represents profit on realization.
4.4 IMPORTANT POINTS
a) If any reserve is to be created for dissolution / realization expenses, it
should be created by setting aside cash after payment of Government
and Employees’ dues. If finally actual expenses are less than the
reserve, the excess should be distributed among the partners.
b) If there is any contingent liabili ty (like bill discounted with the bank
not yet matured) cash should be set aside after payment of all external
liabilities, but before making any payments to the partners. If the
liability arises it should be paid from the cash reserved. If the liability
does not arise, the cash kept in reserve will be distributed among the
partners when it becomes certain that the liability is not to be paid.
c) If nothing is mentioned about security of a liability the same should be
treated as unsecured.
d) In case of a secure d liability, payment should be made for such
liability only if the asset charged for that liability is realized. However
if any other asset is realized then the secured liability should be treated
at par with other unsecured liabilities and payment should be made
proportionately.

means all assets taken over at agreed values / other wise at book values
less liabilities taken over by the purchasing firm.
The purchase consideration is calculated as under:
Particulars ` `
A. Agreed values of assets taken over
Goodwill X
Land & Building X
Stock X
Sundry Debtors X
Cash & Bank X XX
Less: B. Agreed values of liabilities assumed
Sundry Creditors X
Bill Payable X
Bank Loan X

6.1 INTRODUCTION
Partnership firm in India is a major type of business concern wh ich has led
not only to the growth of the economy but also has provided employment
and entrepreneur skills to the business. A growth in this business results in
a need for tremendous expansion. However, a partnership firm suffers
various inherent limitatio ns of insufficient funding, unlimited liability,
skills and competence in handling a business and so on under such a
situation it becomes very necessary for the firm to change its f orm. The
firm in such a situation may convert itself into either
1) A Joint Stock Company or
2) Limited Liability Partnership Firm to handle the spurt in the growth of
the business.
In case the operations are very voluminous or large scaled a joint stock
company becomes the most desirable solution. However it all depends o n
the partners’ argument to change the fo rm of the business. munotes.in

7.0 OBJECTIVES
After studying this unit, the student will be able to:
 Understand Foreign Currency Transactions
 Describe the need for conversion
 Know how to recognize exchange differences
 Explain the accounting of foreign currency transactions
7.1 INTRODUCTION
When a transaction takes place between two or more concerns which are
situated in the same region or country, their respective accounts are
finalized in the same currency.
However, when one of these concerns are loc ated in another country, it
becomes difficult to record transactions in different currencies. Each of the
concerns then has to enter the transaction in this own/ domestic currency
in its books. Thus, a need to convert the currency arises by using currency
exchange rates.
For example, Arun & Co., Mumbai buys goods from Preston & Co. of
USA. The invoice for the same by Preston & Co. may be in US $ while
accounting by Arun & Co. will be in Indian Currency `. The $ will have to
be converted into ` by appropriat e exchange rate, in such a case. munotes.in

Page 226


Financial Accounting
(Special Accounting
Areas) III

226 From the point of view of Arun & Co.:
“ ` ” is the Reporting Currency
“ $” is a Foreign Currency
From the point of view of Preston & Co.:
“ $” is the Reporting Currency
“ `” is the Foreign Currency
The rate of exchange bet ween $ and is the exchange rate
7.2 NEED FOR CONVERSION / TRANSLATION
It is the process of converting the accounting data from one currency to
another. This may be required when an Indian concern may either be
selling or buying goods from a foreign con cern.
The currency of settlement, until paid, amounts to a receivable or payable
which will require conversion to Indian currency at the date of initial
transaction and again on the date of finalization of accounts for the Indian
entity.
The following dia gram depicts such a transaction:









In such a case,one of the concerns must accept the responsibility or
receive its payment in foreign currency. The party that agrees this incurs
an exchange gain or loss, depending on the directio n and amount of
exchange rate fluctuation between date of billing and date of payment.
For example, if a domestic importer has purchased goods from abroad and
is billed in a foreign currency, the invoice may be translated to domestic
currency at current e xchange rate as on the billing date. To settle the debt,
the domestic importer must acquire foreign currency for the purpose of
payment, between the billing date and the payment date. In case the Indian

227 exchange rate fluctuated in that period, the subsequent acqu isition of
foreign currency results in a gain or loss which falls on the domestic
importer. Had the billing been accounted for in domestic currency, the
exchange risk would have been with the foreign exporter. A similar case
can be drawn for a domestic exp orter and a foreign importer.
7.3 ACCOUNTING STANDARD
In order to maintain uniformity of accounting policies, principles and
treatments, ‘Accounting Standards’ are prescribed, which are to be
followed.
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India wh ich is the sole authority
to issue the Accounting Standards has issued Accounting Standard 11
(AS-11) to cover the subject of foreign exchange transactions for
Standardization of Accounting treatments.
The said Standard has been revised and is mandatory. It is to be applied
w.e.f. 1st April 2004. But as far as the accounting for transactions in
foreign currencies entered into by the reporting enterprise itself before the
date this standard comes into effect, AS 11 (1994) i.e. (the old Standard)
will contin ue to be applicable.
Old AS 11 states that:
Exchange differences arising on transactions of foreign currency should be
recognized as income or an expense in the period in which they arise.
Exchange difference arising on repayment of liabilities incurred fo r the
purpose of acquisition of fixed assets, should be adjusted in the carrying
amount of the respective fixed assets.
Revised AS 11 states that:
Exchange difference arising on the settlement of monetary items should be
recognized as income or an expense in the period in which they arise.
When the transaction is settled i.e. completed in the same accounting
period (ending 31st March) as that in which it arose, the entire exchange
difference arises in that period. However, when the transaction is settled in
the next accounting period, the exchange difference is spread over two
different accounting years and will have to be split into those two years on
time basis.
7.4 DEFINITIONS OF TERMS
Closing rate is the exchange rate at the balance sheet date
Avera ge rate is the mean of the exchange rates in force during a period
Exchange rate is the ratio of exchange of currencies of two countries munotes.in

Page 228


Financial Accounting
(Special Accounting
Areas) III

228 Foreign currency is the currency other than the reporting currency of an
enterprise
Reporting currency is the currency used in presenting financial statements
7.5 TRANSLATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS
INITIAL RECOGNITION
In case the imports are on immediate payment basis, the concerned Indian
company will purchase US $ from an Indian bank and make such payment
in dollars to the concerned foreign company in USA. The dollar will be
purchased at the prevailing rate. Translation is done into rupees at that
time. This is known as initial recognition.
RECOGNITION IN STAGES
In case the import of goods is on credit basis, the translation will be done
at different stages as below:
1. On the date of purchase the import will be recorded.
2. If the payment is outstanding, creditors will be recorded as on the
Balance Sheet date.
3. On the date of settlement, the payment in US $ will be recorded.
ACCOUN TING PROBLEMS
As the exchange rate may be different at each stage, it gives rise to the
following accounting problems:
1. At what rate translation should be done on each date i.e. (a) on the date
of purchase, (b) on the date of payment, (c) on the date of Bal ance
Sheet
2. In instances the exchange rates are different, how profit or loss arising
due to such difference should be recorded in the books of accounts
7.6 TRANSLATION OF BALANCES AT YEAR END
The following balances in foreign currency need to be translat ed in rupees.
A. Monetary Items
Cash in Hand, Bank balances, Debtors, Creditors and Loans
B. Non-monetary Items
Fixed Assets, Long -term Investments, Inventory and Current
Investments
Rate of Translation
1. Monetary Items are translated at Closing rate or at realiza ble vale
(when closing rate is unrealistic)
2. Non-monetary Items are translated at historical cost or at fair value.

229 Exchange difference arises due to the following:
a) A transaction being reported at a rate different from the r ate at which
it was initially recorded
b) A monetary or non -monetary item being settled at a rate different
from the rate at which it was initially recorded
c) A transaction being settled at a rate different from the one taken for
the reporting in the financial statement.
7.7 EXERCISES
Illustration 1
Goods purchased on 0 7.07.2021 of US $ 20,000 ` 45 per US $
Exchange rate on 3 7.03.2021 `44 per US $
Date of actual payment 0 7.07.2021 ` 43 per US $
Ascertain the loss/gain for financial year 2020 -21 and 2021 -22 also give
their treatment as per AS 11

Solution

1. At the date of Transaction: As per AS11 all foreign currency
transactions should be recorded at the exchange rate on the date of
transactions.
Accordingly, goods purchased on 0 7.07.2021 and corresponding
creditors would be recorded at ` 9,00,000 (i.e. $ 20,000 x ` 45). At
the balance sheet date all monetary transactions should be reported
at the closing rate

2. At Reporting date: As per AS11 creditor of US $ 20,000 on
37.03.2021 should be reported at ` 8,80,000 (i.e. $ 20,000 x `44)
and exchange profit of ` 20,000 (i.e. 9,00,000 – 8,80,0 00) should
be credited to profit and loss account in the year 2020 -27.

3. Settlement date: As per AS11, exchange difference on settlement of
the account should be transferred to profit and loss account.
Therefore, ` 20,000 (8,80,000 – 8,60,000) should be cre dited to
Profit and Loss account for the year 2021 -22.
