overview Problem-Putting It All Together Stacey, Bill, and Olivia, close friends, decided to form a general partnership to operate a coffee shop. They discussed what they each could contribute. After having discussed the issue for an hour, they developed a plan. Stacey would contribute an inventory of gourmet coffee beans that she had purchased for $1,000 and was currently valued at $500. Bill would contribute an industrial strength espresso machine that he had purchased for $5,000 and was currently valued at $7,000. He had used the machine in a sim- ilar business and had held it for 2 years. Olivia would con- tribute $5,000 cash. They intended to be equal partners.
