To determine

Lump-sum liquidations: liquidation of partnership in which all assets are converted into cash within a short time, creditors are paid, and a single lump-sum payment is made to the partners for their capital interests. Partnership may experiences losses on disposal of assets, because it has to make offer below the normal selling price to encourage immediate sales. The partnership attempts to collect receivable has to offer large cash discounts for prompt payments. Any goodwill on the partnership books is generally written off when the partnership begins liquidation because it is no longer a going concern.

In some situations a deficit may occur in a partner’s capital account if its credit balance is too low to absorb share of losses, such deficit may be cleared by either partner investing cash or other asset or the partner’s capital deficit is distributed to the other partners in their resulting loss sharing ratio.

The amount of cash each partner will receive as liquidating distribution when equipment is sold for the amount stated in each of the following cases.
