QUESTION 2 0.00 points out of 5.00 P Flag question Incorrect Admission of New Partner Following is the condensed balance sheet of Martinez, O'Neill and Clemens, partners who share profits or losses in the ratio of 2:3:5 $320,000 172,800 281,600 505,600 $1,280,000 Cash $76,800 Liabilities Other assets 1,203,200 Capital Martinez Capital - O'Neill Capital - Clemens Total assets 1,280,000 Total liabilities and capital (a) Assume that the partnership's assets and liabilities are fairly valued as shown. The partners wish to admit Jeter as a partner with a 30 percent interest in capital, profits, and losses. They require Jeter to invest an amount such that bonus or goodwill adjustments are not needed. How much should Jeter invest for the 30 percent share? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) $ 0 (b) Assume instead that the existing partners, all of whom contemplate retirement relatively soon, decide to sell Jeter 30 percent of their respective partnership interests for a total payment of $336,000. This payment will be made proportionately to Martinez, O'Neill, and Clemens. The partners agree that implied goodwill is to be recorded prior to the transaction with Jeter. What are the capital balances of the four partners after the transaction with Jeter? Balances After Acquisition Martinez S O'N S Clemens S Jeter S CheckExplanation / Answer
a) Amount should be invested by Jeter = 30% of (172800+281600+505600) = $ 288000
b) new profit sharing ratio:-
Martinez Share = 7/10*2/10 = 14/100
O'Neill Share = 7/10*3/10= 21/100
Clemens Share = 7/10*5/10 = 35/100
Jeter Share = 30/100
New Profit Sharing Ratio = 14:21:35:30
$ 336000 should be distributed in the ratio of 2:3:5 between Martinez, O'Neill and Clemens respectively.
New Capital after acquisition would be :
Martinez's Capital = $ (172800+67200) = $ 240000
O'Neill's Capital = $ (281600+100800) = $ 382400
Clemens's Capital = $ (505600+168000) = $ 673600
Jeter's Capital =
