Liability

Liability and Assets are the two parts of accounting equation. Liability is always equal to assets of company. Liability is the payable amount to owner and outside. In case when businessman has not taken any loan, all liability will be equal to the capital of that businessman. In second situation when a company has not taken any loan, all share capital will be the liability of company.

In general words,

Total liability = Owner's equity + outside equity

Or

Total liability = Total share capital + Secured loan + unsecured loan + current liability

Or

Capital + Outside liability = Total Assets
