Explanation:

According to my research on financial accounting terms, the term liability is defined as the state of being legally responsible for something (dept such as auto or student loans). When a liability is first recorded it is measured in terms of the probable future payment of assets or services that a company is presently obligated to make as a result of past transactions or events. Basically calculating the amount of future payments that need to be made by the dept owner.
