    The safe payments computations include consideration of the partners loss absorption power and the priority of intervening cash distributions before the last cash distribution. The loan payable to Adam has the same legal status as the partnerships other liabilities. After payment of the loan, then any available cash can be distributed to the partners using the safe payments computations. Partnership creditors have first claim to partnership assets After the settlement of accounts, partners are required to make additional contributions to the partnership to satisfy partnership obligations.

    This computation assumes that no other events occurred in the 10-day period that changed any of the partners personal assets and personal liabilities. In practice, the accountant must be sure that a computation of net worth is current and timely. The table shows the effects of the transactions between the partnership and each partner. A presumption of this table is that the personal creditors of Dan or Gail would not seek court action to block the settlement transactions with the partnership. Upon winding up and liquidation, the partnership does not have any priority to the partners personal assets. Thus, the personal creditors may seek to block the transactions with the partnership in order to provide more resources from which they can be paid. A partner who fails to remedy his or her deficit can be sued by the other partners who had to make additional contributions or even by a partnership creditor if the failed partner is liable to the partnership creditor. But those claims are not superior to the other claims to the partners individual assets. When accountants provide professional services to partnerships and to its partners, the accountant should expect, at some time, legal suits involving the partnership and/or individual partners. A strong and thorough understanding of the legal and accounting foundations of partnerships will be very important to that accountant.
