Advance Plan for the Distribution of Cash
• Objective is to derive the order and the amount of cash that should be distributed to each partner such that no partner receiving a cash
distribution will have to make an additional investment.
• Such a distribution plan will bring the balances of the partners’
capital accounts into their profit and loss ratio as soon as possible.
– Rationale : Once the capital balances are in the profit and loss ratio, no one partner is in any better position than any other to absorb losses.
