Lea and Revy entered into a universal partnership of profits. At the time of the execution of the articles of partnership, Lea had a two-door apartment which he inherited from his father 3 years earlier. Revy, on the other hand, had a fleet of taxis which he purchased 2 years before. In the first year of the partnership, Lea earned P500,000.00 as a radio talent, while Revy won P1,000,000,00 in the lotto. During the same period, rentals of P2000,000.00 were realized from the operation of the fleet of taxis. Which of the following belongs to the partnership?
- A.
Two-door apartment.
- B.
Lotto winnings of P1,000,000.00
- C.
Salary of P500,000.00
- D.
Fleet of taxis
Correct Answer
C. Salary of P500,000.00Explanation
The salary of P500,000.00 belongs to the partnership because it was earned by Lea as a radio talent during the first year of the partnership. Since Lea and Revy entered into a universal partnership of profits, any income earned by either partner during the partnership period is considered part of the partnership. The two-door apartment, lotto winnings, and fleet of taxis were acquired by Lea and Revy before the partnership was formed, so they do not belong to the partnership.Rate this question:

A partnership formed for the exercise of a profession that is duly registered is an example of:
- A.
The universal partnership of profits
- B.
The universal partnership of all present property.
- C.
Particular partnership.
- D.
Partnership by estoppels.
Correct Answer
C. Particular partnership.Explanation
A partnership formed for the exercise of a profession that is duly registered is an example of a particular partnership. This type of partnership is formed for a specific purpose or business activity, such as a professional practice. It is different from a universal partnership of profits, which involves a sharing of all profits and losses, or a universal partnership of all present property, which involves a sharing of all assets and liabilities. Partnership by estoppel refers to a situation where someone is held liable as a partner even if they are not officially a partner.Rate this question:

- C.
A particular Partnership between husband and wife.
- D.
A universal partnership of profits between a private individual and a public officer.
Correct Answer
C. A particular Partnership between husband and wife.Explanation
A particular partnership between husband and wife is not void because it refers to a specific partnership agreement between a married couple, which is legally recognized. The other options involve partnerships that are considered void because they either involve individuals living together without being married, or partnerships between a private individual and a public officer, which may present conflicts of interest.Rate this question:

- A.
Managing partner.
- B.

- C.

Correct Answer

Heidi is considered a partner by estoppel because she represented herself as a partner of JAG Enterprises with the consent of Jason, Ariane, and Gina. This means that even though she is not actually a legal partner, her actions and representations have led others to believe that she is a partner, and therefore she can be held liable as if she were a partner.Rate this question:

A limited partner may contribute:
- A.
Money and/or property.
- B.
Money and/or services.
- C.
Property and/or services.
- D.
Services only
Correct Answer
A. Money and/or property.Explanation
A limited partner has the option to contribute either money or property or both. This means that they can invest capital in the form of money or assets, such as real estate or equipment. By contributing money and/or property, limited partners become passive investors in a partnership, allowing them to share in the profits and losses of the business without actively participating in its operations. This flexibility in contribution options allows limited partners to invest in a way that aligns with their financial capabilities and goals.Rate this question:

One of the distinctions between a partnership and a corporation is that a partnership:
- A.
May be formed by one person.
- B.
Is created by operation of law.
- C.
Acts through a board of directions.
- D.
May exist for an indefinite period.
Correct Answer
D. May exist for an indefinite period.Explanation
A partnership may exist for an indefinite period, unlike a corporation which has a defined lifespan. Partnerships are typically formed through a partnership agreement between two or more individuals, and there is no legal requirement for them to have a specific end date. This allows partnerships to continue operating as long as the partners wish to remain in business together. In contrast, a corporation is a separate legal entity that is created by filing certain documents with the government, and it has a predetermined duration unless it is dissolved or liquidated.Rate this question:

The sharing of gross returns does not in itself establish a partnership even if the persons sharing them have a joint or common interest in the property from which the returns are derived.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
This statement is true because the sharing of gross returns alone does not establish a partnership. Even if the individuals sharing the returns have a joint or common interest in the property, it does not automatically make them partners. Partnership requires more than just sharing returns, such as an agreement to carry on a business together, sharing profits and losses, and having mutual agency.Rate this question:

- D.

The articles of incorporation are a condition precedent in the acquisition by a corporation of a juridical personality. This means that the articles of incorporation are necessary for a corporation to legally exist and have a separate legal identity from its owners. They outline the corporation's purpose, structure, and other key information required for its formation. Without the articles of incorporation, a corporation cannot be recognized as a separate legal entity and cannot conduct business activities.Rate this question:

- B.

- C.
Upon the issuance of the certificate of incorporation.
- D.
Within 30 days from the receipt of the notice of the issuance of the certificate of incorporation.
Correct Answer
C. Upon the issuance of the certificate of incorporation.Explanation

The certificate of incorporation is a document issued by the government or a regulatory authority that confirms the formation and existence of the corporation. It includes important information such as the name of the corporation, its purpose, and the names of its shareholders or members. Once the certificate of incorporation is issued, the corporation can start conducting business and enjoying the rights and privileges of a separate legal entity.Rate this question:
