What is journal entry?

A initial recording of financial commercial transactions in the accounts books is known as a journal entry. They are listed in chronological order. In the books of accounts, each business transaction has dual effects, that is, it debits each account and credits another due to a single commercial transaction.

Now, according to the question;

(A) Elan's investment for a one-third stake.

= 666,000×(1/3)

= 222,000

Thus, Elan invest for a one-third interest is $222,000.

(B) The journal entry for the admission of Elan if she invests $80,000 for a 20% interest and goodwill is recorded.

Estimated total capital = $ 555,000

= 444,000/(100-20)

Less total net assets is 524,000

=$444,000 + $80,000

Goodwill to a new partner is estimated to be $31,000.

($ 555,000-$524,000)

Now the Journal entry,

Dr Cash- $80,000

Dr Goodwill- 31,000

Cr Elan, Capital- $111,000 calculated as;

= (444,000×20)/(100-20)

=111,000

Thus, Cr Elan, Capital- $111,000.

(C) The journal entry for Elan's admission if she decides to invest $200,000 for a 20% return.

Amount Invested in partnership $ 20,000

Less the book value of the new partner ($133,200).

=(444,000 + 222,000)×20

= $66,800

Difference-  $66,800

($200,000-$133,200)

The Journal entry, in the ratio 6:3:1

Dr Cash - $200,000

Cr Mary, Capital- $40,080

= 66,800×60

Cr Gene, Capital- $20,040

=  66,800×30

Cr Pat, Capital-  $6,680

=  66,800×10

Cr Elan, Capital- $133,200

=  66,800×20

As a result, a journal entry is the initial recording of financial business transactions in accounting books.
