Partnership Accounts

12 min read

Partnership agreements, the appropriation account, and capital and current accounts.

A partnership has 2+ owners sharing profits. The partnership agreement sets out profit-sharing ratios, interest on capital/drawings and partners' salaries (the Partnership Act applies if there's no agreement).

The appropriation account

Shows how profit for the year is shared:

  • Add interest on drawings (charged to partners).
  • Deduct interest on capital and partners' salaries.
  • Share the remaining profit in the agreed ratio.
