Cevap

Transfer of asset book values matches Debit Realization Account, Credit Sundry Asset Accounts; Receipt of cash from realized assets matches Debit Cash/Bank Account, Credit Realization Account; Payment of dissolution expenses matches Debit Realization Account, Credit Cash/Bank Account; Distribution of realization profit matches Debit Realization Account, Credit Partners' Capital Accounts.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the double-entry rule for closing assets upon dissolution
Assets are closed by crediting the specific asset accounts and debiting the Realization Account with their book value.
This transfers asset values to a temporary realization account to compute net gain or loss upon winding up.
2
Determine the entries for asset proceeds and dissolution expenses
Cash inflows debit Cash/Bank and credit Realization. Cash outflows for dissolution costs credit Cash/Bank and debit Realization.
Realization account acts as a summary profit/loss account specifically for the winding up process.
3
Determine the entry to close a profit on realization
The excess of credits over debits in Realization is cleared by debiting Realization Account and crediting Partners' Capital Accounts.
Profits belong to the partners and increase their final capital balances.
