Separate legal personality ~ the partnership has a juridical personality separate and distinct from the partners. The partnership can transact and acquire properties in its name: Chapter aoe Mutual agency ~ the partners are agents of the partnership for the purpose of its business. As such, a partner may legally bind the partnership to a contract or agreement that is in line ‘with the partnership's operations. 4. Co-ownership of property - each partner is a co-owner of the properties invested in the partnership and each has an equal right with his partners to possess specific partnership property | for partnership purposes. However, a partner has no right to possess a partnership property for any other purpose without the consent of his partners. e. Co-ownership of profits ~a partnership is created as a business (@ profit-oriented entity), as such, each partner is entitled to his share in the partnership profit. A stipulation which excludes one or more partners from any share inthe profits or losses is void, (At 1798 he Cl Cle of he Pippin) f Limited life~ a partnership is easily dissolved: i. by the express will of any partner, fi, by the termination of a definite term stipulated in the contract; ‘by any event which makes it unlawful to carry out the partnership; iv. when a specific thing which a partner had promised to contribute to the partnership perishes before the delivery an. 1880; OF v. expulsion, death, insolvency or civil interdiction of a partner. 1g.

If a partner is personally insolvent, his share in the partnership debt shall be ‘assumed by the other solvent partners. > A partnership in which all partners are individually liable is called a general partnership. > A partnership in which at least one partner is personally liable is called a limited partnership. A limited partnership includes at least one general partner who maintains ‘unlimited liability. The others, called limited partners, may limit their lability up to the extent of their contributions to the partnership. A limited liability partnership usually has “LLP” in its name. ‘Advantages and disadvantages of a partnershi ‘Advantage Disadvantage ‘Ease of formation ‘Limited life Easily dissolved 7 Shared responsibility of [+ Unlimited liability running the business + Flexibility in decision = Conflict among partners making >Greater capital compared to | Lesser capital compared 10 sole proprietorship |__acorporation ~ Relative lack of regulation [+ A partnership (other than a by the government 26 ‘general professional compared to corporations partnership) is taxed like a corporation ‘Accounting for partnerships The Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting and the PFRSs are applicable to all reporting entities regardless of the type of organization, Thus, most accounting procedures used for other types of business organizations are also applicable to partnerships.

It is created by the agreement of the partners which may be constituted in any form, suchas oral or written, However, Articles 1771 and 1772 of the Philippine Civil Code require that a partnership agreement must be made in a public instrument and recorded with the Securities and Exchange ‘Commission (SEC) when: ‘a. immovable property or real rights are contributed to the partnership (e.g. PPE); or bb. the partnership has a capital of P3,000 or more. ‘Art. 1773 further requires an inventory of any immovable property contributed to the partnership, signed by the parties and attached to the public instrument, otherwise the partnership is deemed void. ‘A partnerships legal existence begins from the execution of the contract unless otherwise stipulated Valuation of contributions of partners At. 1787 of the Civil Code states that “when the capital or part thereof which a partner is bound to contribute consists of goods, their appraisal must be made in the manner prescribed in the contract of partnership, and in the absence of stipulation, it shal. be made by experts chosen by current prices, the subseque ‘Scanned with CamScanner deemed void. ‘A partnership's legal existence begins from the execution of the contract, unless otherwise stipulated.

Partnership Formation 5 be made by experts chosen by the partners, and according to current prices, the subsequent changes thervof being for the account of the partnership.” The term “appraisal” as used in the Civil Code suggests valuation of capital contributions at fair value Moreover, the provision of PERS 2 Share-base! Payments that equity instruments issued for non-cash items should he valued at the fair value of the non-cash items received parallels that of Art 1787. Accordingly, all assets contributed to (and related liabilities assumed by) the partnership are initially measured at fair value. > An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities > Fair valueis “the price that would be received to sellan asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between ‘market participants at the measurement date.” (PFS 13) When measuring the contributions of partners, the following additional guidance from the PFRSs shall be observed: ‘Type of contribution Measurement ‘Cash and cash equivalents_| Face amount (Pas?)

In such case, the additional credit to the partner's capital (ie, the ‘bonus’) is accounted for-as a deduction from the capital of the other partners. This accounting method is called the “bonus” method. Although, the credit to the partner's capital may vary due toa ‘bonus, the corresponding debit to the asset account must still bbe equal to the fair value of the contribution. The difference between the amounts credited and debited is treated as adjustment to the capital accounts of the other partners. Ilusteation: : = Aaand B agreed to form a partnership.

This stipulation may give rise to adjustments to the initial contributions of the partners. Since technically there is no “bonus” being given to a certain partner, any increase or decrease to the capital credit of a partner is not deducted from his co-partners’ capital accounts. Instead, the ‘capital adjustment is accounted for as either: a. Cash settlement among the partners; or b.
