Solution

To answer the question step by step:

  1. Understand the nature of a partnership: A partnership is a business structure where two or more individuals manage and operate a business in accordance with the terms and objectives set out in a Partnership Deed.

  2. Analyze each option:

    • a. not exist independently from the partners: In a partnership, the business is closely tied to the partners. The partnership itself does not have a separate legal identity from its partners.
    • b. own its own assets: While a partnership can own assets, these assets are typically held in the names of the partners or the partnership itself, but the partnership does not have a separate legal identity.
    • c. act in its own name: A partnership can act in its own name, such as entering into contracts or suing and being sued, but this is done on behalf of the partners.
    • d. exist independently from the partners: This is not true for a partnership, as it does not have a separate legal identity from its partners.
  3. Determine the correct answer: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is:

    • a. not exist independently from the partners
