5 .3 Se t t l ement o f Accounts
In case of dissolu t ion of a f irm, th e firm ceases to condu ct bu siness a nd ha s to
settle its accoun ts. For th is pu rpose, it disposes off all its as sets for sa tisfyin g all
th e claims a gains t it. In th is context it sh ould be noted th at, su bject to agreement
among the par tners , the fol lowing rules as provided in Sect ion 48 of the
Partn ersh ip Act 1932 s ha ll app ly.
(a) Treatment of Losses
Loss es, inclu ding deficien cies of capital, sh all be paid :
(i) first ou t of profits,
(ii) next out of capital of par tn ers, an d
(iii) las tly, if n ecessa ry, by th e par tn ers ind ividua lly in t heir profits s h ar in g ratio.
(b) Application of Assets
The as sets of the firm, inclu ding any su m contribu ted by the partn ers to ma keu p d eficiencies of capital, sh all be a pplied in th e followin g ma nn er an d order :
(i) In p aying th e debts of th e firm t o the third pa rt ies;
(ii) In paying each pa r tner proport ionate ly wha t i s du e to him/ her f rom the
firm for ad vances as distingu ished from ca pital (i.e. par tn er loan );
(iii) In p aying to each part ner pr oportionately what is du e to him on a ccou nt
of cap ital; an d
(iv) th e residue, if an y, sh all be divided am ong the pa rtn ers in th eir profi t
sh aring rat io.
Thu s, th e am oun t realised from a ss ets along with contribu tion from pa rtners , if
requ ired, sh all be u tilised first to p ay off the ou tside liabilities of th e firm su ch as
creditors, loan s, ba nk overdra ft, bill pa yables, etc. (it may be noted th at s ecur ed
loans ha ve precedence over the u ns ecured loan s); the ba lan ce shou ld b e appliedto repay loans an d a dvan ces mad e by the par tn ers to the firm. (in case th e
balance amou nt i s not adequa te enough to pay off su ch loan s an d advances,
they are to be paid propart ionately); and surplus, if any is to be uti l ised in
settlemen t of th e capital accou nt b alan ces, after adju sting all profits a n d loss es.
Private Debts a nd Firms Debts : Where both the d ebts of the firm an d private debts of
a p ar tn er co-exist, th e followin g rules, as sta ted in Section 49 of th e Act, sh all ap ply.
(a) Th e property of th e firm sh all be app lied first in th e paymen t of debts of th e
firm a nd then the su rplus, if an y, sh all be divided am ong the partn ers as
per th eir claims, wh ich can be u tilised for pa ymen t of th eir pr ivate liabilities.
(b) The private property of an y pa rtn er sh all be app lied first in pa yment of
his private debts an d th e su rplus , if an y, ma y be u ti lised for paymen t of
th e firms debts , in ca se t h e firms liab ilities exceed t h e firms as sets .It ma y be noted th at th e private property of th e partn er does not includ e the
persona l properties of his wife an d ch ildren. Thu s, if th e as sets of th e firm ar e
not a dequ ate en ough to pay off firms liab ilities, th e par tn ers h ave to con tribu te
out of th eir n et private a ss ets (private ass ets m inu s p rivate liab ilities).

Inabil i ty of a Partner to Contribute Towards Deficiency
In the context of se t t lement of accounts amon g the pa rtners there i s s t i ll another
importan t as pect to be noted , i.e ., when a partn er i s un able to cont r ibute towards
the deficiency of his capital accou nt (the accoun t fina lly sh owing a debit ba lance),
he/ she i s s a id to be inso lvent , an d th e su m not recoverable is t rea ted a s capi ta l loss
for the firm . In th e abs ence of an y agreemen t, to the contrar y, su ch a ca pital loss is
to be borne by the rem aining solvent p art ners in accordan ce with th e principle laid
down in Garn er vs . Murray case , which s ta tes th a t th e so lvent pa rtners have to bear
such loss in the rat io of their capitals as on the date of dissolution. However, the
accoun ting treatmen t relat ing to diss olut ion of par tner sh ip on accou nt of insolvency
of partn ers i s no t be ing taken u p a t th is s tage .
5.4 Accounting Treatment
When th e firm is diss olved, its books of accoun t ar e to be closed a n d th e profit or
loss arising on realisation of i ts assets and discharge of l iabil i t ies is to becompu ted. For this pu rpose, a Realisa tion Accou nt is prepa red to ascertain th e
n et effect (profit or loss ) of realisat ion of as sets an d p aym ent of liab ilities which
ma y be is tra ns ferred to part ners cap ital accoun ts in th eir profit sh aring rat io.
Hence, al l as sets (other tha n cas h in ha nd b an k balan ce and fict it ious a ss ets, if
an y), an d a ll external l iab il it ies a re tra ns ferred to th is accoun t. It a lso records
th e sale of as sets , an d pa ymen t of liab ilities an d realisa tion expen ses . Th e balan ce
in this accou nt is term ed as p rofi t or loss on realisa tion wh ich is tran sferred to
