Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hello Forum,   I have another question on t his topic.

 

I paid some partnership expenses in late 2020.   I will be reimbursed for these shortly (2021).  These expenses were for startup costs (legal fees) and a computer.

 

2020 will be the first tax return for the partnership..

 

I am using cash basis accounting. 

 

For t-tax business (and my books) I just created a "liability" account for the amount owed.  When I report this liability in turbotax, it creates a entry of this amount for "recourse liabilities" on the General Partner K1 section K.

 

I am not sure of the  significance of this and if it is right...  I thought that  partners liability entry was used when partners contributed property that came with debt/liabilities etc.
