Different type of liquidation:
Liquidation is a process in which an organization terminates its operations. Mainly
there are three ways to liquidate the organization:
 Members voluntary liquidation:
In this case, the company is solvent and all the creditors have been paid in full and the
remaining funds of the company has been transferred to the shareholders and the directors. In
this process the directors and the shareholders closes the company with huge reserve (Kaplan
and Atkinson, 2015).
 Creditors voluntary liquidation:

In this case, the company is insolvent and all the creditors have not been paid in full. In
this process the creditors pressurise closes the company.
 Court voluntary liquidation:
In this case, the directors of the creditors of the company apply in the country to closes
and liquidate the company (Madhura, 2014).
Unrealized profits:
Unrealized profit is the amount which exists on the paper in order to get from an
investment. It is a profitable state for an organization that has yet to be sold and get in
exchange the cash. Such as in case of transfer of assets among the company the company has
not generated any profit but it has been shown in the accounting books of the company (Lord,
2007).
Residual value:
Residual value is the estimated in context with the fixed assets which could be got by
the organization at the end of the life cycle of that particular assets. The residual value of
assets depends on the nature of the asset. Residual value is one of the important aspects of an
asset which impacts on the depreciation and other aspect of the company (Higgins, 2012).
