At a personal level, an individual may take a loan from a bank to construct a home for his family or to buy a car. He repays this money in installments, and this loan is considered a debt of the person. He also has liabilities towards his family members such as kids and wife as well as aged parents whose requirements he needs to fulfill. At first glance both debt and liability appear to be same, but if you take a closer look, there are many differences that will be enumerated in this article, particularly in respect of businesses and companies where these terms are commonly used in financial statements.As described above, if a company has taken loans from banks or individual investors in the form of bonds or mortgages, these are considered as debts that need to be repaid along with interest. The liabilities of a company also need to be serviced, but they are not just debts. A liability is something that a company owes to someone like accounts payable. If a company buys raw material and has to pay pack the supplier in 30 days, it is the liability of the company as the company has received the benefit (raw material) and has to pay for it. At a personal level, paying your tutor for all the coaching he has given in a month is your liability. At a psychological level, looking after emotional, physical and material needs of your spouse are your liabilities.In a company, expenses that have accrued are also considered a liability. Your employees have worked for a month, and it is your liability now to pay their monthly salaries. Unearned revenues are another example of liability. The best example of this kind of liability is prepaid card for a mobile where you pay in advance when you buy a recharge coupon and it is the liability of the company to provide your mobile services for the period for which the coupon is valid.Liability is a past event that is likely to result in a cash outflow in near future from a business. There are many types of liabilities as described above, and debt is certainly one of them.编辑于 2015-11-11 21:54​赞同 219​​7 条评论​分享​收藏​喜欢收起​知乎用户​准确地说,前者还包括应付账款类非利息偿还性质的短期负债,而后者则更精确地指带息负债发布于 2013-08-01 19:06​赞同 17​​7 条评论​分享​收藏​喜欢

Debt和Liability,资本(Capital)和资产(Asset)的区别 - 知乎切换模式写文章登录/注册Debt和Liability,资本(Capital)和资产(Asset)的区别Young HT丶​香港大学 理学硕士Debt和LiabilityDebt可以简单理解为需要支付利息的债,而Liability则包括付息的债(Debt)和不付息的债。Liability包括短期负债和长期负债:一般long-term liability都是付息债,所以long-term liability的科目基本都属于“debt”。而short-term liability中大部分都是非付息债(如应付账款A/P、预收账款、应付职工薪酬等),这些就不属于“debt”。但也有付息债(如应付票据note payable、current portion of long-term debt),所以这两个科目虽然属于短期负债,但属于“debt”。资本(Capital)和资产(Asset)资产(Asset)=负债(Liability)+所有者权益(Equity)资本(Capital)=债务融资资本(Debt)+权益融资资本(Equity)一个公司通过两种方式进行融资,一部分是自有资金股权融资(不予归还,但赋予一定股权比例),另一部分是举债融资(到期偿还本金+利息),融资来的资本公司投入运营中。靠自有资金融资来的资本就是权益融资资本,靠借债融资来的资本就是债务融资资本,即Debt,借债融资来的资本是需要偿还利息的。但也有一部分负债是不需要支付利息的,可能是靠和上下游供应商和客户挤压的负债(上游:应付账款、下游:预收账款),也可能是靠挤压员工来的负债(应付职工薪酬),以及其它。这部分负债短期内不需要偿还,所以依旧可以算是公司的资产,投入在运营中。所以负债也可以分拆为两部分,一部分是向债权人借来的债务资本,这部分是需要偿还利息的。另一部分是在生产运营中短期内“挤压”来的债务,比如上下游供应商和客户、员工,这部分就不能叫资本了,但依旧属于负债。所以资本和资产的区别可以简单理解为,资本Capital包括有息负债Debt和股东权益,资产Asset包括全部负债和股东权益。从汉语的字词解释上来看,资本是用于投资得到利润的本金或财产,资产是指由企业拥有或者控制的、预期会给企业带来经济利益的资源。(百度百科)所以资本是从投资的角度上看,无论是股权投资还是债券投资,投资人都是需要拿到收益的(利息/分红Dividend、资本利得Capital Gain)。资产是从企业经营的角度上看,能给企业带来收益的资源,股权融资、债券融资融来的钱投入运营后购买资产,或者通过挤压上下游和员工短期支撑运营的那部分资产。发布于 2021-04-09 17:30财务资本资产​赞同 31​​3 条评论​分享​喜欢​收藏​申请

What Is Debt?

Debt is something, usually money, owed by one party to another. Debt is used by many individuals and companies to make large purchases that they could not afford under other circumstances. Unless a debt is forgiven by the lender, it must be paid back, typically with added interest.

Spanish Translation of Debt

Key Takeaways

Debt is something one party owes another, typically money.Companies and individuals often take on debt to make large purchases they could not afford without it.Debt can be secured or unsecured, with a fixed end date or revolving.Consumers can borrow money through loans or lines of credit, including credit cards.Corporations can also issue debt in the form of bonds to raise capital.

How Debt Works

The most common forms of debt are loans, including mortgages, auto loans, and personal loans, as well as credit cards. Under the terms of a most loans, the borrower receives a set amount of money, which they must repay in full by a certain date, which may be months or years in the future. The terms of the loan will also stipulate the amount of interest that the borrower is required to pay, expressed as a percentage of the loan amount. Interest compensates the lender for taking on the risk of the loan.

Credit cards and lines of credit operate a little differently. They provide what's known as revolving or open-end credit, with no fixed end date. The borrower is assigned a credit limit and they can use their credit card or credit line repeatedly as long as they don't exceed that limit.

An Example of Debt

When students take out federal student loans to pay for college, they will receive a certain sum of money that they agree to pay back in the future with interest. Students now have the option of several different repayment plans. If they choose what's known as the standard repayment plan, they will be required to make fixed monthly payments for 10 years, at which point their debt will be completely paid off.

Each of those monthly payments will represent a portion of the principal they owe plus interest on their debt. The interest rate on federal student loans for undergraduates is currently 4.99%.

Types of Consumer Debt

Debt can come in a variety of forms, each with their own uses and requirements. Most types of debt fall into one or more of the following categories:

Secured Debt

Secured debt is also known as collateralized debt. That means the borrower has pledged something of value to back up the debt. With a car loan, for example, the vehicle usually serves as collateral. If the borrower fails to repay the money they borrowed to buy the car, the lender can seize and sell it. Similarly, when someone takes out a mortgage to buy a home, the home itself typically serves as collateral. If the borrower fails to make payments, the lender can foreclose and take the home.

A company that wants to borrow money might pledge a piece of machinery, real estate, or cash in the bank as collateral.

Unsecured Debt

Unsecured debt does not require any collateral as security. Instead, the lender decides whether to grant a loan based on the borrower's creditworthiness, as indicated by their credit score, credit history, and other factors.

Most credit cards and most personal loans are examples of unsecured debt. Because unsecured debt can be riskier to the lender it generally commands a higher interest rate than secured debt.

Revolving Debt

Revolving debt provides the borrower with a line of credit that they are able to borrow from as they wish. The borrower can take up to a certain amount, pay the debt back, and borrow up to that amount again. The most common form of revolving debt is credit card debt.

As long as the borrower fulfills their obligations, typically by making monthly payments of at least a certain minimum amount, the line of credit remains available for as long as the account is active. Over time, with a favorable repayment history, the amount of revolving debt that's available to the borrower may increase.

Mortgages

A mortgage is a type of secured debt used to purchase real estate, such as a house or condo. Mortgages are usually paid back over long periods, such as 15 or 30 years.

Mortgages are often the largest debt, apart from student loans, that consumers will ever take on, and they come in many different varieties. Two broad categories are fixed-rate mortgages and adjustable-rate mortgages, or ARMs. In the case of ARMs, the interest rate can change periodically, usually based on the performance of a particular index.

Types of Corporate Debt

Companies that want to borrow money have some options that aren't available to individual consumers. In addition to loans from a bank or other lender, they are often able to issue bonds and commercial paper.

Bonds are a debt instrument that allow a company to borrow funds from investors by promising to repay the money with interest. Both individuals and investment firms can purchase bonds, which typically carry a fixed interest, or coupon, rate. If a company needs to raise $1 million to fund the purchase of new equipment, for example, it could issue 1,000 bonds with a face value of $1,000 each.

Bonds commonly become due at a certain date in the future, called the maturity date, at which time the investor will receive the bond's full face value. In addition, the investor will have received regular interest payments throughout the intervening years.

Commercial paper is short-term corporate debt with a maturity of 270 days or less.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Debt

Properly used, debt can be advantageous to individuals and companies alike. Few people could buy a home without a mortgage, and many people couldn't afford a new car without an auto loan. Credit cards can be a great convenience and even a lifesaver in emergency situations.

For companies, access to debt can make all the difference in their ability to expand and compete.

But debt can be risky, for borrower and lender alike. With enough credit cards in their wallets, consumers can easily accumulate an unmanageable amount of debt, especially if they lose their jobs or face another serious setback.

Companies that take on a large amount of debt may not be able to make their interest payments if sales drop, putting the business in danger of bankruptcy. Even if it doesn't reach that point, having too much debt can impose a crippling burden on a company, requiring it to devote much of its income to debt repayment rather than more productive purposes.

How to Pay Off Debt

The best way to stay out of debt trouble is to have a plan for paying it off. That starts with not taking on too much debt in the first place.

For example, consumers should pay attention to their credit utilization ratio, also known as a debt-to-limit ratio. That's the amount of debt they currently owe as a percentage of the total amount of credit they have available to them. For example, if someone has two credit cards with a combined credit limit of $10,000, and they currently owe $5,000 on those cards, their credit utilization ratio is 50%.

Lenders typically prefer that consumers keep their credit utilization ratios below 30%, and credit scores penalize individuals for exceeding that level.

The fastest way to pay off debt is to devote a greater portion of your income to monthly debt payments, ideally paying off credit card debts in full each month before any interest charges kick in. If you need to prioritize, experts generally recommend paying off your highest interest debts first and working your way down from there.

You can also consolidate several debts into one, which may make sense if the new loan carries a lower interest rate. Similarly, you may be able to transfer your credit card balances to another card with a lower interest rate or, ideally, a 0% interest rate for a period of time.

What Are Examples of Debt?

Debt is anything owed by one party to another. Examples of debt include amounts owed on credit cards, car loans, and mortgages.

What Is the Legal Definition of Debt?

In terms of consumer debt, 15 U.S. Code Section 1692a defines it as "any obligation or alleged obligation of a consumer to pay money arising out of a transaction in which the money, property, insurance, or services which are the subject of the transaction are primarily for personal, family, or household purposes, whether or not such obligation has been reduced to judgment."

What Is the Difference Between Debt and a Loan?

Debt and loan are often used synonymously, but there are slight differences. Debt is anything owed by one person to another. Debt can involve real property, money, services, or other consideration. In corporate finance, debt is more narrowly defined as money raised through the issuance of bonds.A loan is a form of debt but, more specifically, an agreement in which one party lends money to another. The lender sets repayment terms, including how much is to be repaid and when, as well as the interest rate on the debt.

What Is the Difference Between Debt and Credit?

Debt is amount of money you owe, while credit is the amount of money you have available to you to borrow. For example, unless you have maxed out your credit cards, your debt is less than your credit.

The Bottom Line

Debt is an important, if not essential, tool in today's economy. Businesses take on debt in order to fund needed projects, while consumers may use it to buy a home or finance a college education. At the same time, debt can be risky, especially for companies or individuals that accumulate too much of it.
