Excess value of assets over liabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Surplus is the excess of the value of an entity&#8217;s assets over the value of its liabilities.

Surplus can be used to finance new investments, pay dividends to shareholders, or repay debt.<\/p>\n<p>Option A is incorrect because excessive liabilities would lead to a deficit, not a surplus.<\/p>\n<p>Option B is incorrect because excessive turnover is not a measure of value.<\/p>\n<p>Option C is incorrect because the value of liabilities cannot be greater than the value of assets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Excessive liabilities&#8221;
