Where are you career-wise? Are you an aspiring CPA? Have you taken an accounting course dealing with partnerships?
Your question is more complicated than you appear to realize, and I hope you can get educated before you make a serious error.

"If it is a fresh new return wouldn’t beginning equity be zero?"
of course, you are right. But for some reason I had an intuition that he was doing a 1st year return.
My guess is that he works for a firm, and this is a trainer tax return a partner gave him and he doesn't want to ask his colleagues out of embarrassment. (That was me 30 years ago.)
