Debt is a promise to pay some amount in the future. Examples include business loans and mortgages. Debt does not imply ownership of an asset, although assets are sometimes promised as collateral to help guarantee payment. If a business if financed with debt, then the business is obligated to repay that debt, usually with interest and fees. Please see Section 5 below.
