Detailed Solution & Explanation

Partnership and Joint Venture:  When two or more persons join together, to do business on joint account on regular basis & to share the profits or losses such relationship is known as partnership & the persons are known as partners.  When two or more persons join temporarily to do a particular job or work & to share profits or losses, is known as joint venture & the persons are known as co-venturer's.  Partnership is a relationship between persons who have agreed to share profits or losses of a business carried on by all or any of them acting for all.  Whereas, a joint venture is a contractual agreement whereby two or more parties undertake an economic activity which is subject to joint control.  Thus joint venture is a temporary partnership formed for a particular economic activity or venture. The following additional differences exist between joint venture and other forms of partnership. 1. Accrual basis of accounting is followed in case of partnership and a joint venture generally follows cash basis of accounting. 2. The financial results of a partnership are obtained at regular intervals ie. on annual basis. On the other hand, the financial results of a joint venture are obtained generally at the end of the venture.
