Profit and loss ratios. The profit and loss sharing ratios for the former partnerships were 40% to Baher and 60% to Maher, and 30% to Amin and 70% to Yasin. The profit and loss sharing ratio for the new partnership is Baher 20%; Maher 30%; Amin 15%; Yasin 35%. 2. Capital investments. The opening capital investments for the new partnership are to be in the same ratio as the profit and loss sharing ratios for the new partnership. If necessary, certain partners may have to contribute additional cash, and others may have to withdraw cash to bring the capital investments into the proper ratio. 3. Accounts receivable. The partners agreed to set the new partnership's allowance for bad debts at 3% of the accounts receivable contributed by B&M and 12% of the accounts receivable contributed by A&Y. 4. Inventory. The new partnership's opening inventory is to be valued by the FIFO method. B&M used the FIFO method to value inventory (which approximates its current value), and A&Y used the LIFO method. The LIFO inventory represents 85% of its FIFO value. 5. Property and equipment. The partners agree that the building's current value is approximately 70% of the building's historical cost, as recorded on each partnership's books. 6. Unpaid liability. After each partnership's books were closed on 30/6/2020, an unrecorded merchandise purchase of $1,500 by A&Y was discovered. The merchandis had been sold by 30/6/2020.
