Limited Partnership Definition – What is Limited Partnership

Written by Bob Steele CPA - Accounting Instruction, Help & How To on . Leave a comment

Limited partnership definition. Analyzing the definition of key terms often provides more insight about concepts. Limited partnership can be defined as – Partnership that has two classes of partners, limited partners and general partners. A limited partnership can be contrasted with a general partnership, general partnership being the default partnership, a partnership with one type of partner, general partners. General partners have mutual agency over the decision-making process of the partnership and are subject to greater liability risk than limited partners. A limited partner is restricted from the day to day decision of the partnership, not acting as an agent of the partnership, and therefore, not having as high of personal liability. Limited partners are often more like investors, individual with capital to invest. The reduced personal liability of a limited partnership allows general partners to generate capital investment from limited partners who would like to invest.

Accounting Equation Rules

Written by Bob Steele CPA - Accounting Instruction, Help & How To on . Leave a comment

Learning rules related to the accounting equation can be very helpful in learning the process of recording financial transactions and understanding the reasoning behind the double entry accounting system. Rules provide a framework for us to think around, structures often being thought to limit creative thought, but this is not true. Frames are needed for creative thought. For example, musicians find new innovative ways to apply the patterns and rules of music and part of the creativity of poetry is derived from the strict rules applied, the incredible ways people find variation while staying in a similar structure. Rules related to financial transactions also help stop us from taking shortcuts that do not work in all cases, shortcuts being things we will need to unlearn in the future when they do not apply, and the process of unlearning is hard. It is best to learn rules that apply and work toward understanding the reasoning for these rules. This phenomenon of learning shortcuts and rules that do not apply in all cases is like mathematics because it is possible to find some arithmetic shortcuts that do not work in all cases. If we understand the reasoning behind the fact that these shortcuts do not work in all cases and use shortcuts accordingly this can work, but if we do not understand the reasoning and, instead, learn shortcuts as the universal rule we can end up with more problems down the road.
