Abstract

Partnership private equity investment funds play a crucial role in the capital market as an essential organizational form. The unique status and role of general partners in these funds distinguish their income mechanism significantly from other limited partners. This paper, based on relevant provisions in the Enterprise Accounting Standards regarding long-term equity investments and income, provides a pathway to recognize the unrealized income of general partners before actual exits. It includes a detailed analysis with case studies and outlines future research prospects.
