Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A company’s obligation to pay money to other people or businesses in the future is called a liability. This means that the company will not be able to make money in the future. A liability is a way for a business to get money different from equity.

Detailed explanation-2: -Comparing Liabilities and Debt The main difference between liability and debt is that liabilities encompass all of one’s financial obligations, while debt is only those obligations associated with outstanding loans. Thus, debt is a subset of liabilities.

Assets are items of value that your business owns, such as real estate and equipment. Assets and liabilities are part of a business’s balance sheet and are used to judge the business’s financial health.
