Liabilities

Liabilities Liabilitiesrepresent all the money (debts) that a business owes at a particular time.

Even if a company has a lot of cash and other assets, it may not be in a good financial position if it has borrowed a large amount of money from other people or organizations. Accountants therefore pay careful attention to how much a business owes or what its liabilities are.

Do you have any liabilities? If so what are they?
