Study Notes
Corporate Liquidation Overview
- Corporate liquidation refers to the process of winding up a corporation, which may occur voluntarily or involuntarily.
- Involves the selling off of corporate assets to pay creditors and distribute any remaining assets to shareholders.
Statement of Affairs
- A key document prepared during liquidation outlining the financial position of the company.
- As of January 31, 20x1, it includes a breakdown of assets and liabilities.
Asset Valuation
- Assets are valued at their net realizable value (NRV) during liquidation, not as a going concern.
- If no quitting, liquidation, or realizable values are available, assets may be assessed at fair value (FV) or estimated fair value based on appraisals.
Special Scenarios
- In situations where assets are pledged, a distinction is made between assets secured by different parties:
- FSL (First Secured Lender): Pledged assets with liabilities exceeding assets are prioritized for liability claims.
- PSL (Second Secured Lender): Similar considerations apply for assets pledged under secondary claims.
- The assessment of these assets and corresponding liabilities is crucial to determine the remaining value available for distribution to shareholders.
