I will be legally responsible for $81,477.5

Explanation:

When a company is liquidated in the U. S., its creditors should be paid, according to the Section 507 of the Bankruptcy Code. since the company has assets of $247,965 and liabilities of $410,930. after liquidating the assets, me and my partner will decide to pay the liabilities with the liquidated assets. Now the remaining liabilities for the company will be $162,955. now we will split the liabilities into two equal amounts and the remaining liabilities for a partner will be $81,477.5.
