Partnership Predistribution Plan (Estimated Time: 30 to 40 Minutes) For the past several years, the Andrews, Caso, Quinn, and Sheridan partnership has operated a local department store. Based on the provisions of the origi- nal articles of partnership, all profits and losses have been allocated on a 4:3:2:1 ratio, respectively. Recently, both Caso and Quinn have undergone personal financial problems and, as a result, are now insolvent. Caso's creditors have filed a $20,000 claim against the partnership's assets, and $22,000 is being sought to repay Quinn's personal debts. To satisfy these legal obligations, the partnership property must liquidate. The partners estimate that they will incur $12,000 in expenses to dispose of all noncash assets. At the time that active operations cease and the liquidation begins, the following partnership balance sheet is produced. All measurement accounts have been closed out to arrive at the current capital balances. Cash Noncash assets $20,000 280.000 Liabilities $140,000 Caso, Loan 10,000 Andrews, Capital 76,000 Caso, Capital 14,000 Quinn, capital 51,000 Sheridan, capital 9.000 Total assets $300,000 Total liabilities and capital $300,000 Required Using the information available prior to the start of the liquidation process, prepare a predistri- bution plan for the partnership.
