Long Answer

Solution
When a partner retires, assets and liabilities are revalued because, over time, the value of some assets may have increased, while others may have decreased. As a result, the actual realizable value of the assets and the current status of liabilities might differ from what is reflected in the balance sheet. Therefore, it is essential to adjust all assets and liabilities to their true values on the partner's retirement date to ensure that neither the retiring partner nor the continuing partners face any disadvantage.
