Partnership Asset Management Rules
Summary
Partnerships use non-fungible assets without selling them, with the contributing partner bearing loss risks unless the partnership is at fault. Fungible or perishable items risks are borne by the partnership. Profits and losses are shared per the agreement or capital contribution. Third-party decisions on shares are binding unless unfair, with a three-month challenge period. All partners act as agents, and major property changes need unanimous consent, with court intervention possible for prejudicial refusals.Full Conversation
• "Contributed for Their Use Only": The partnership is using the asset to carry out its business but does not intend to sell it or have it consumed in the business process. For example, using a partner's personal truck for deliveries or a partner's office space for meetings.
• Risk Borne by the Owning Partner: If the antique car is destroyed in a flood, the partner who contributed it bears the loss. The partnership doesn't have to compensate the partner for the loss unless the loss was due to the partnership's fault

Risk Borne by the Owning Partner: If the contributed asset (like an antique car) is lost or damaged, the contributing partner bears the loss, unless the partnership is at fault.
If the things contribute are fungible, or cannot be kept without deteriorating, or if they were contributed to be sold, the risk shall be borne by the partnership. In the absence of stipulation, the risk of the things brought and appraised in the inventory, shall also be borne by the partnership, and in such case the claim shall be limited to the value at which they were appraised. simplify
If the contributed items are fungible, perishable, or intended for sale, the partnership bears the risk. Without specific agreements, the risk for appraised items in the inventory also falls to the partnership, limited to their appraised value.

Things that cannot be kept without deteriorating - If a partner contributes perishable goods or items that naturally deteriorate over time, the risk of loss due to this deterioration is borne by the partnership.

- Prohibition: Profit and loss shares cannot be designated by one of the partners.
Article * of the Civil Code of the Philippines allows partners to designate a **neutral third person** to decide their profit and loss shares. This is often done to avoid internal conflicts or leverage the third person's expertise. The third person's decision is generally **valid and binding** on the partners. However, a partner can contest this decision if it is **demonstrably unfair**. To challenge the decision, the partner must do so **within three months** from the time they had knowledge of it. Failing to challenge within this period means the partner **loses the right to complain later**.
Crucially, the law **prohibits one of the partners** from unilaterally deciding the profit and loss shares. The decision must be either by mutual agreement of all partners or by a designated impartial third person. The three-month rule acts as a statute of limitation to ensure timely resolution and prevent prolonged uncertainty. SIMPLIFY
