A partnership held three assets: Cash $ 59,000
Land $ 45,000
Building $ 64,000
and liabilities were $ 30,000
The partners decided to dissolve the business and anticipated that expenses required to
liquidate their partnership would amount to $ 5,000
Capital balances were as follows:
King, capital $ 24,000
Murphy, capital 30,000
Madison, capital 48,000
Pond, capital 36,000
The partners shared profits and losses 10:20:30:40 respectively.
The cash on hand was used to pay the liabilities. Any remaining cash in excess of
the amount needed for anticipated liquidation expenses was immediately
distributed to the partners.

distributed to the partners?
b. The cash (in item a.) was distributed to each partner in a single payment.
