Bonus – incentive/special compensation given to a partner for superior income realized. It is usually based on net income.
General Guidelines 1. Partner salary allowances, interest allowances on capital account balances and bonus are not expenses in the determination of partnership net income. 2. The provision on salaries and interest must be enforced regardless of whether operating results is a profit or loss. 3. The provision on bonus is enforced only when operating results is a profit. 4. If the partnership agreement specifies that income is to be divided based on partners’ capital balances but fails to specify how capital balances are to be computed, the average capital balances should be used if it can be computed. If not, the original capital balances should be used.
