Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

Partnership dissolution refers to the termination of a partnership as well as the cessation of its various business activities. Partnerships can dissolve for various reasons and under many circumstances.

The general dissolution of a partnership will usually be instigated as a result one of the following events: 

  • The mutual agreement of the partners – which may be an ad hoc agreement, or an agreement enshrined in the partnership agreement (where, for example, it was agreed that the partnership would be dissolved after a particular date, or after a certain event).  Such an agreement may be implied rather than actual 
  • By the serving of a notice by a partner where such an action provided for in partnership agreement 
  • The exercise of a specific power in the partnership agreement – where, for example, the partnership agreement allowed a majority of the partners to seek dissolution. 
  • The exercise of a power in the legislation 
  • One of the events provided for in the legislation (e.g., the death or bankruptcy of a partner) subject to contrary agreement
  • Fraud, misrepresentation, rescission or illegal activity
  • By an order of court (following, for example, the mental incapacity or other ill-health  of a partner) 
  • Where the business may only be carried on at a loss
