My MDS Review book states...Each partner’s equity is accounted
for in a capital account. Each partner’s
capital account is maintained as follows:
Cash, and FMV of property or services contributed...Assets and liabilities are
transferred from sole proprietorships to partnerships or corporations are
valued at FMV.
Based on the answer, I assume Smith contributed
$350,000 to Spiffy Cleaning as capital. Spiffy
Cleaning then purchased the assets from Jones’ Cleaning which would be recorded at FMV.
