Introduction :
The sole proprietorship has its limitations such as limited capital, limited managerial ability,
unlimited liability, no stability, absence of specialization etc. Hence when a business is to be set up
on a scale which needs more capital and involves more risk, two or more persons come together to
run it. They agree to share the capital, the management, the risk & profits of business, such mutual
relationship based on an agreement amongst these persons is termed as "Partnership". The persons
who have entered into the partnership are individually known as "Partners" and collectively as a
"Firm".
1.1 Meaning and Definition of Partnership :
Partnership is an organization where there is an
association of two or more persons coming together
to carry on a business with a view to share Profit or
Losses of a firm.
Definition :
Indian Partnership Act 1932 Section 4 defines
the partnership as, "It is the relation between persons
who have agreed to share the profits of a business carried on by all or anyone of them acting for all."
According to Prof. Handy, "Partnership is the relation existing between persons competent to
make contract, who agree to carry on a lawful business in common with a view to earn private gain.

silent about the ratio then profit and loss sharing will be equal.
5) Unlimited Liability :- The liability of partners is unlimited joint and several that is, partners
are liable till the last rupee in their pocket. If assets of business is not sufficient to pay liabilities,
then personal property of partners can be used. If anyone of the partner is declared in solvent

PARTNERSHIP DEED
The document containing the Partnership Deed
partnership agreement among partners is
called Partnership Deed. It contains the terms
and conditions which are agreed upon by all the
partners. An agreement may be written or oral
but when it's written, it's called a deed.
The Partnership Act doesn't make it
compulsory to have a written agreement.
However, in case of dispute among the
partners, it is always in the best course to have
a written agreement duly signed (by all the
respective partners) and registered under the
Act. Partnership Deed contains the rules and
regulation framed for the internal Management
of the firm. It is also an Article of Partnership.
Contents of the Partnership Deed
1) Name and address of the firm and its main
business.
2) Name and address of all partners and
duration of the partnership.
3) Capital contribution of all the partners
4) Ratio in which profits (and losses) are to
be shared.
5) Rights, duties and liabilities of the partners.
6) Provisions related to admission, retirement,
death etc. of a partner.
7) Rate of interest on capital, loan, drawings
etc.
8) Salaries, commission, etc. if payable to any partners.
9) Settlement of accounts on dissolution of the firm.
10) Method of settlement of disputes among the partners.
11) Any other matter relating to the conduct of business.
Importance of Partnership Deed
Partnership deed is a very important document because it is the written agreement which
contains all the terms and conditions of the partnership business. It forms the basis of mutual
relationship among the partner. Moreover, partnership deed regulates the rights, duties and liabilities
of all the partners as well as of firm. So by having partnership deed partners disputes in future may
be avoided.

Notes :
1) Every item in the Trial Balance must be shown only one time and in just one part of the
Final Accounts, excluding silent/ hidden adjustments.
2) Every adjustment must have two effects in Final Accounts i.e. debit and credit.
3) We have already studied this topic in XI standard as “Final Account of Proprietary
Concern.” Most of the theory part, explanation of journal entries, and effects of journal
entries are similar. To avoid repetition common explanation is not given in the XII stan-
dard. But explanation and Journal Entries of new adjustments are given. For common
references / explanation teachers and students can refer textbook of standard XI. First
topic in this book i.e Introduction to Partnership is also correlated with Partnership Final

Important Points :
1) Each item from Trial Balance will be included only once in the Final Accounts i.e. either in
Trading or in Profit & Loss A/c or in Balance Sheet or in working section.
2) Each adjustment has two effects for the similar amount.
3) Debit balances of Trial Balance will appear on the debit side of Trading Account or Profit &
Loss A/c or on the asset side of the Balance Sheet.
4) Credit balances of Trial Balance will appear on the credit side of Trading Account or Profit &
Loss A/c or Capital Account or on the Liabilities Side of the Balance Sheet.
5) If Salaries and Wages are given as separate items, Wages are shown on the debit side of Trading
Account while salaries are shown on the debit side of Profit and Loss A/c. If the item is “Wages
and Salaries”, it is shown on the debit side of Trading A/c and if the items is “Salaries &
Wages”, it is shown on the debit side of Profit & Loss A/c.
6) If the Trial Balance contains only “Trade Expenses”, the item will be shown on the debit side
of Profit & Loss A/c. If the Trial Balance contains “Trade Expenses” and also other items like
“Sundry Expenses” or “Office Expenses” or “General Expenses” or “Miscellaneous Expenses”,
the item “Trade Expenses” is shown on the debit side of Trading A/c while the other items of
expenses are shown on the debit side of Profit &Loss A/c.
7) The adjustment for Bad Debts and Provision for Bad and Doubtful Debts should be effected
after other adjustments for Debtors are given effect to. Such adjustments can be unrecorded
sales, drawings included in Debtors, drawings treated as sales, etc.
8) Reserve for Discount on Debtors should be given effect after the adjustments for Bad Debts and
Provision for Bad and Doubtful Debts.
9) Reserve for Discount on Creditors should be given effect after making all the other adjustments
concerning Creditors.
10) Hidden / Self-explanatory adjustments are to be given effect even if there is no special instruction
in the problem in this respect.
11) Closing Stock should be taken at “Cost or Market Price, whichever is less."
12) If a manager or a partner is allowed commission at a certain percentage on Net Profit, such
commission should be calculated in the following manner depending upon how the commission
is quoted :
a) If it is on Net Profit before charging such commission :
Rate of Commission × Net Profit
Commission Amount =
100
b) If it is on Net Profit after charging such commission :
Rate of Commission × Net Profit
Commission Amount =
100+ Rate of Commission
13) When the date of drawings are not given Interest on drawings should be calculated on average
basis or for six months

Drawings × Rate × 6
100 12
14) If a partner introduces capital in the middle of the accounting year, then interest on capital
should be calculated on proportionate time period only. (This complication is not expected at
your Std. XII level).
