Assets And Liabilities
An asset is something that holds monetary value and has the potential to generate profits in the future, such as property, investments, or intellectual property. Liabilities, on the other hand, are debts or financial obligations that a company or individual must repay, either immediately or in the future, such as loans, bills, or outstanding payments. While assets are owned and represent value, liabilities are owed and represent obligations to be settled. In financial terms, assets contribute to wealth, whereas liabilities reduce it.
