1. liquidation

   Liquidation is the process of converting a company's assets into cash or cash equivalents in order to pay off debts. It typically involves selling off all company property, stocks, and other assets, often at a reduced price, and using the proceeds to repay creditors. This usually occurs when a company is insolvent or unable to meet its financial obligations. Once the liquidation process is completed, the company ceases operations and dissolves.

1. Liquidation

   In law, liquidation is the process by which a company is brought to an end, and the assets and property of the company redistributed. Liquidation is also sometimes referred to as winding-up or dissolution, although dissolution technically refers to the last stage of liquidation. The process of liquidation also arises when customs, an authority or agency in a country responsible for collecting and safeguarding customs duties, determines the final computation or ascertainment of the duties or drawback accruing on an entry. Liquidation may either be compulsory or voluntary.
