On 1 January 2014, the partnership was dissolved due to a disagreement between the partners. Upon dissolution, the following transactions took place:

1. Premises were sold for RM115,000. The proceeds were then used to settle the bank overdraft. Equipment was realised at a loss of RM10,000.

2. Bedin agreed to take over the vehicles at 20% below book value. The loan from Bedin to the partnership was used as part of the settlement for the vehicles and the balance was paid by cheque.

3. Deris took over the inventories at a discount of 10%.

4. All debtors paid their debts in full except for an amount of RM1,500 which was unrecoverable and was therefore written off as bad debt.

5. The amounts owing to the creditors were paid in full at a discount of RM2,000.

6. Dissolution expenses amounting to RM1,500 were fully paid.

7. All payments and receipts were made through the bank account.

8. Deris had a debit balance in his capital account but only managed to pay RM4,400 to the partnership business. The deficiency is to be borne between Bedin and Ceyla based on the Garner vs. Murray rule.
