Verified step by step guidance

Understand the definition of assets: Assets are all resources owned by a company that have economic value and are expected to provide future benefits. Examples include cash, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, and property.

Understand the definition of liquid assets: Liquid assets are a subset of assets that can be quickly converted into cash without significant loss of value. Examples include cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivable.

Eliminate incorrect options: Review the provided choices and identify any statements that misrepresent the definitions of assets and liquid assets. For example, assets and liquid assets are not interchangeable terms, and liquid assets are not long-term investments.

Select the correct answer: Based on the definitions and comparison, choose the option that accurately describes the difference between assets and liquid assets.
