Video: Termination of a Partnership

In this lesson, Nick Palazzolo, CPA, breaks down the steps and considerations involved in ending a partnership. He describes the specific circumstances that can lead to the termination of a partnership, such as the cessation of operations or the reduction of partners to fewer than two. With a practical approach, Nick makes it clear that a partnership can't exist with just one person and explains the necessity of winding up the partnership's affairs—including paying off debts and distributing assets. He ensures that the process of wrapping up, including filing the necessary paperwork with the IRS and state agencies, is thoroughly understood. There's even a light-hearted moment where he reflects on the seemingly contradictory term "wind up" for the process of ending partnership activities. Nick's expertise shines in navigating through what could be a complex procedure, simplifying it into manageable steps.
