The unsecured creditors are interested in determining whether the preliminary estimate still seems appropriate.

The trustee was originally assigned noncash asset for P1,480,000 and creditor claims as follows:

Fully secured P670,000
Partially secured P400,000
Unsecured with priority P200,000
Unsecured without priority P320,000
  • Assets with book value of P45,000 and unsecured liabilities, without priority, of P35,000 were subsequently discovered.
  • Assets with a total book value of P740,000 were sold for P715,000 net.
  • Fully secured liabilities of P410,000 and partially secured liabilities of P280,000 were paid.
  • Remaining liquidation expenses were estimated to be P30,000.

Assume the remaining noncash assets have an estimated net realizable value as follows:

Assets traceable to fully secured creditors P240,000
Assets traceable to partially secured creditors P110,000
Remaining assets P382,000
