Question
After the accounts are closed on February 3, prior to liquidating the partnership, the capital accounts of William Gerloff, Joshua Chu, and Courtney Jewett are $19,580, $4,020, and $22,460, respectively. Cash and noncash assets total $4,980 and $55,980, respectively. Amounts owed to creditors total $14,900. The partners share income and losses in the ratio of 2:1:1. Between February 3 and February 28, the noncash assets are sold for $36,300, the partner with the capital deficiency pays the deficiency to the partnership, and the liabilities are paid.
 
1. Prepare a statement of partnership liquidation, indicating (a) the sale of assets and division of loss, (b) the payment of liabilities, (c) the receipt of the deficiency (from the appropriate partner), and (d) the distribution of cash.

For those boxes in which you must enter subtracted or negative numbers (balance deficiencies, payments, cash distributions, divisions of loss), use a minus sign.
