Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Liquidation refers to the process by which a business is brought to an end and its assets are distributed among the claimants. It occurs when a company can no longer pay its obligations when due. The company is now said to be insolvent.

Some causes of liquidation in business are:

a lack of knowledge about the business

inadequate income to pay bills and take care of running cost

chronic indebtedness by clients

an extremely competitive market

Hence, when a financially troubled company is liquidated, the business has officially come to an end. It is not a means to operate for a while in order to build a sounder financial base
