Question 2

Marked out of 2.00
Trading under the name Lehumo Bricks, Refentse and Boitshepo are partners in
this brick manufacturing company. Over the years, Lehumo Bricks has
established itself as a reputable supplier of high-quality bricks used in various
construction projects, from residential homes to large commercial buildings.
The business has been profitable, with Refentse and Boitshepo sharing profits
and losses equally, reflecting their initial capital investments and contributions
to the partnership.
However, after years of operating in the competitive construction materials
industry, the partners decided to liquidate the business. Their decision was
influenced by a combination of factors, including changes in market demand,
increasing production costs, and their desire to pursue other ventures.
Having carefully evaluated offers for key assets, particularly the land, the
building, manufacturing equipment and inventory on hand, they decided to
accept the most favourable ones for the sale of the land, inventory and
equipment. With this decision in place, they planned to initiate the
simultaneous liquidation of the partnership on 1 June 2024.
Before any liquidation entries were recorded, they prepared a final trial balance
to summarise the financial position of the business.
