    • Partnerships can borrow money from a partner if needed, for a set period. These loans aren't part of the business's capital. They're treated like outside loans.
    • Unlike investing more capital, loans to a partnership from a partner have a set repayment time and interest.
    • Interest on partner loans is a business expense, not affected by the profit or loss amount.
