Installment Liquidation

Hann, Murphey, and Ryan have operated a retail furniture store for the past 30 years. Their business has been unprofitable for several years, since several large discount furniture stores opened in their sales territory. The partners recognize that they will be unable to compete with the larger chain stores and decide that since all the partners are near retirement, they should liquidate their business before it is necessary to declare bankruptcy. Account balances just before the liquidation process began were as follows:

Cash	10,000	Liabilities	110,000
Other Assets	218,000	Hann Capital 50%	50,000
		Murphey, Capital 30%	42,000
		Ryan, Capital 20%	26,000
Total	228,000	Total	228,000

Asset realization is accomplished in four stages as follows:
