Primary text

If all the capital has been liquidated into cash, the working partner is not required to convert the remaining assets into the original form of the capital. This is because the relationship is a partnership, and a partner is not obliged to liquidate the partner's property. Furthermore, the obligation to liquidate the capital exists only so that the principal sum can be returned to the owner in its original form, a meaning that does not apply to the profit.
