在法律文件、合并与收购、公司财务报告等场合,undertaking通常译为“业务”。最常见于法律和商业语境中,如" undertaking, property and liabilities" 这个短语涉及到一个实体(如公司或个人)的整体资产和负债。让我们逐个解析这个短语的各个部分:
Undertaking: 这里的 "undertaking" 通常指的是一个实体的整体业务活动或运营。它包括了该实体的所有业务项目、合同、承诺以及日常运作。
Property: "Property" 指的是该实体所拥有的所有资产,包括有形资产(如房地产、设备、存货)和无形资产(如专利、商标、商誉)。
Liabilities: "Liabilities" 则是指实体所承担的所有负债。这包括但不限于银行贷款、应付账款、债券、未支付的税款等。
因此,当说到 "undertaking, property and liabilities" 时,这通常意味着涵盖了一个实体的全部业务、资产和负债。
