To enquire into the profile of five partnership firms, students should work in teams and study various aspects of each firm. The following aspects should be covered in the enquiry:

Nature of business: Students should identify what type of business activity the partnership firm is engaged in, such as trading, manufacturing, or services.

Size of business: This should be measured in terms of capital employed, number of persons working, and sales turnover. These metrics help understand the scale of operations of each partnership firm.

Problems faced: Students should investigate the challenges and difficulties encountered by the partnership firms in their day-to-day operations.

Other key aspects: The enquiry should also cover incentives available to the firms, reason behind choice of partnership form, decision making pattern among partners, willingness to expand and relevant considerations, and usefulness of a form for the business.

Presentation of findings: Student teams should submit their findings and conclusions in the form of project reports and multi-media presentations. This helps develop analytical and presentation skills while understanding the practical aspects of partnership as a form of business organisation.
