One inappropriate use of large firm procedures that is poorly understood, but creates potentially serious problems, relates to the identification of debt and equity. Often, what is identified as debt of a small firm is fully supported by the owner's personal collateral. In that regard, it carries more of the characteristics of equity than of debt (the owner's personal wealth is put at risk for an uncertain return) and is consequently often described as quasi-equity. 3, record 1, English, - quasi%2Dequity
