Kimberly Payne and Arionna Maples decide to form a partnership by combining the assets of their separate businesses. Payne contributes the following assets to the partnership: cash, $25,230; accounts receivable with a face amount of $150,960 and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $3,970; merchandise inventory with a cost of $89,120; and equipment with a cost of $138,820 and accumulated depreciation of $41,460.

The partners agree that $5,620 of the accounts receivable are completely worthless and are not to be accepted by the partnership, that $5,240 is a reasonable allowance for the uncollectibility of the remaining accounts, that the merchandise inventory is to be recorded at the current market price of $103,020, and that the equipment is to be valued at $91,740.

On December 1, journalize the partnerships entry to record Paynes investment. Refer to the Chart of Accounts for exact wording of account titles.
