Components of assets and liabilities in accounting

In this video I will explain what the asset and liability components in accounting, something very important in the Economy. In previous videos we analyzed what accounting is and what a balance sheet is.

The asset and liability components in accounting are as follows:

ACTIVE: is the destination of money

  • Non-current assets: It is the set of elements that the company has bought and that it intends to make them last for more than one year: furniture, land,
  • Current active: It is the set of elements that will not be with the company for a long time since it will be sold soon, the money that the company owns and the rights of the company (debts they have with it).

PASSIVE: set of company debts

  • net worth: set of money that the company has been able to create in order to function. This patrimony belongs to the company and does not have to be returned.
  • non-current liabilities: long-term debts (in more than one year)
  • current liabilities: short-term debts to pay (in less than one year)

If you watch the video you will understand this explanation better since I explain different examples to illustrate it.
