expense.

but it has yet to be rendered.

Depreciation- is the devaluation of an asset over time. Example of an asset that depreciates are:
machines, buildings, service vehicles and etc.

not to collect due to some circumstances like when a borrower/ client dies or unexpectedly
unreachable.

Solvency- it shows the company’s ableness to pay it’s long term debts and other financial needs

Liquidity- liquidity is the opposite of solvency. Liquidity is the ableness to pay the company’s short
term debts specially bills that are due.
