2. The capital balances of the DEF Partnership are as follows:

Danielson $180,000

Eklund 95,000

Forsberg 150,000

Total $425,000

The partners' income sharing ratio is: Danielson, 25%; Eklund, 45%; Forsberg, 30%. Assume the partnership’s identifiable net assets are carried at amounts approximating fair value.

Case A:

Assume Gustafson joins the partnership by contributing $125,000 to the partnership for

a 20% interest in partnership capital.

Case B:

Now assume Gustafson paid $90,000 for a 20% interest in partnership capital.

Instruction: For each case (each case is independent), please use both Bonus method and Goodwill method to

analyze the problem. Prepare the Statement of Partners’ Capital Balances, as well as the related journals prepared

for the partnership.

Bonus Method
Case A
Total capital of DEF 425000
(180000+95000+150000)
Investment of Gustafson 125000
Interest of Gustafson 20%
Total capital of new partnership 550000
(425000+125000)
Value of Gustafson's Capital 110000
(550000*20/100)
Calculation of Bonus
Gustafson's investment - Gustafson's capital value 15000
(125000-110000)
In this case as bonus is positive it should be devided among the old partners
in their profit sharing ratio.
Danielson = 15000*25/100 3750
Eklund = 15000*45/100 6750
Forsberg     = 15000*30/100 4500

Bonus Method
Case B
Total capital of DEF 425000
(180000+95000+150000)
Investment of Gustafson 90000
Interest of Gustafson 20%
Total capital of new partnership 515000
(425000+90000)
Value of Gustafson 's Capital 103000
(515000*20/100)
Calculation of Bonus
Gustafson's investment - Gustafson's capital value -13000
(90000-103000)
In this case as bonus is negative it should be adjusted to Gustafson's investment.
So Gustafson's new capital would be = 90000-13000
= 77000
