What does ASSET mean in Scrabble?
noun
Something of value that a person, business, or organisation owns or can use to its advantage.
In accounting, an asset is any property, cash, or right that a company can convert into value or use to meet its debts, and assets are listed separately from liabilities on a balance sheet. Outside finance, the word broadens to cover any useful quality or person, so a skilled employee or a strong reputation can equally be called an asset. Businesses and individuals both track their assets to judge overall wealth or capability. The opposite of an asset in financial terms is a liability, something that costs money rather than adding value.
How ASSET is used
