Solution
Understanding the key differences between dissolution of partnership and dissolution of firm is essential:
Dissolution of Partnership: Partnership agreement changes but business continues with remaining/new partners. Books continue, no court intervention needed.
Dissolution of Firm: Complete closure of business. All operations stop, books are closed, court intervention possible.
Let me analyze each matching:
(A) Termination of business:
- Business terminates completely → Dissolution of firm (III)
- Business does NOT terminate in dissolution of partnership → (I)
Both interpretations are valid depending on whether we state what happens or what doesn't happen.
(B) Continuation of business:
- Business continues → Dissolution of partnership (IV)
- Business does NOT continue in dissolution of firm → (II)
(C) Intervention of court:
- Court can order → Dissolution of firm (III)
- Court intervention not needed for → Dissolution of partnership, so (I)
(D) Continuation of books of accounts:
- Books continue → Dissolution of partnership (IV)
- Books do NOT continue in dissolution of firm → (II)
Option 1: A-(I), B-(II), C-(III), D-(IV)
States what is NOT possible in each case, then direct results.
Option 4: A-(III), B-(IV), C-(I), D-(II)
States direct results, then what is NOT possible.
Both options present logically consistent matchings from complementary perspectives. The question accepts both as correct answers.
Correct Options: 1 and 4
