Re: 19 Explain one advantage and one disadvantage of forming a partnership.
KN: One advantage of forming a partnership is that partners bring different skills and ideas to the business.
APP: For example, one partner may be good at finance while another focuses on marketing, allowing them to manage the business more effectively.
AN: This combination of skills leads to better decision-making, which can improve business performance. As the business runs more efficiently, profits can increase, helping it to grow faster than a sole trader.
KN: One disadvantage of forming a partnership is that profits have to be shared between the partners.
APP: For example, if a business earns a profit of $100,000, it must be divided among all partners rather than kept by one person.
AN: This means each partner receives a smaller share of the income, which can reduce individual motivation. Over time, disagreements about money or decisions may occur, slowing down business growth and competitiveness.

Re: 19 Explain one advantage and one disadvantage of forming a partnership.
DISADVANTAGES:
{KN} Due to partnership there is a share of profits and shares btw the partners and no decisions can be made without mutual agreement. {APP} for example once the business grows and starts making profit each partner will get its own unit and no amendments can be done on it without proper consultation of whole. {ANL} Hence this leads to disagreements and rivalry upon partners affecting the growth and profit of buisness compared to a sole trader reducing motivation leading to downfall of business.
