A written agreement is always preferred to avoid disputes in future. Not many legal formalities are needed for forming or closing business. Even the procedure for registration is simple. 

(ii) Large Capital: Many partners come together to start a firm. Partners have joint responsibility to collect capital for the firm. As number of persons are more than sole trading concern, large capital can be collected. If business has to be expanded more capital has to be collected. 

(iii) Business Secrecy : More secrecy can be maintained in business. Books of accounts need not be published. There is no legal requirement to publish annual report. Information is not leaked out to competitors, which is an advantage to the firm. If partners want they can keep secrets to themselves. 

(iv) Rational Decisions : Decisions are taken collectively by partners. Two heads are always better than one.. Partners discuss can take decisions, which are always balanced. Partners have unlimited liability therefore they are careful in taking decisions.

Distinguish between the following:Give any four demerits of Joint Hindu Family Business.

Answer»

(i) Limited Resources : Business is done by the joint family. So capital brought in by the family is limited. The capacity to raise funds is also limited as liability of co-parceners is limited. This affects growth and expansion of business.

(ii) Limited Managerial Ability : The management of business is totally taken care of by Karta. So the entire business depends upon the ability of the Karta. He does not even consult co-parceners for decision making. The Karta may not be an expert in all areas of business. Due to inadequate funds it is not possible to hire experts. Therefore, Joint Hindu Family Firm faces the disadvantage of limited managerial ability.

(iii) Unlimited Liability : The liability of Karta is unlimited. His decision making process becomes very slow. He is too cautious and unwilling to take risk in business. As there is no difference between personal property and business property of Karta he is afraid to take bold decisions. This affects the progress of business.

(iv) Limited Expansion : Even if Karta takes a lot of interest in business, the firm has the disadvantage of limited growth. Two reasons i.e., limited capital and limited managerial ability results in limited growth of business.
