Going Concern

The going concern assumption is the accounting premise that a company will continue operating for the foreseeable future and not liquidate. Under this assumption, assets and liabilities are valued and reported based on ongoing operation rather than liquidation.

Example: For example, a company with limited cash and upcoming debt maturities evaluates whether it can continue as a going concern; the annual report may include a note describing management's assessment and any related uncertainties.
