If a partner takes over an asset for personal use at dissolution, at what value is it recorded?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Agreed value

When a partner takes over a firm asset at dissolution, the amount recognised in the Realisation Account is the value agreed between the firm and that partner. This is called the agreed value or takeover value. The partner’s capital account is debited with that agreed amount, and the asset is removed from the firm’s books through the realisation process. Original cost is not compulsory because the asset may have appreciated, depreciated or become obsolete. Nominal value is used only in special contexts and does not represent the negotiated consideration here. Zero value would be appropriate only if the asset were surrendered without consideration, which is not stated. Therefore option B is correct. The governing principle is that the accounting entry should reflect the value at which the partner assumes the asset and the firm’s corresponding claim is settled.
