True or False

Solution

This statement is true.

Explanation:

Under accounting rules, a company is considered an artificial person because it has a separate legal identity from its owners, known as the Business Entity Principle. This means all financial transactions are recorded from the company’s perspective, not the owner’s personal view. Because the company acts as an independent person, it can own assets, take loans, and enter into contracts under its own name. Consequently, the money invested by the owner is treated as a liability (Capital) that the company owes back to them.
