Differences between assets and liabilities:

💰📊
We could conclude that the main differences between assets and liabilities in accounting are:

Assets: set of assets available

Liabilities: set of debts you have.

What is liabilities?

Liability is the debts that the company owns, obligations are collected and represents what is owed to third parties: payments to banks, salaries, suppliers, taxes...

To classify liabilities, we can differentiate them between:

Non-requireable liability: own funds owned by the holders of the Capital.

Liabilities payable: the debts that the company owns to third parties and must be returned to suppliers, banks or other creditors.

What is the asset?

Assets are the set of assets, rights and other resources available to a company, whether tangible or intangible, from which the company is likely to make economic benefits in the future.

We can distinguish different types of assets:

Non-current asset or fixed asset: goods and rights acquired with the intention that they remain in the company for more than a year, which have not been acquired for sale purposes; such as machinery and real estate.

Current assets or working assets: acquired assets and rights with the intention of remaining less than a year; as is the case with stocks.
