The Russian Civil War must be distinguished from the Russian Revolutions of 1917. They are not the same; therefore their causes are not the same. The Civil War was caused because Lenin and his Bolsheviks took over the government from the Russian Provisional Government and announced that they were now in power. The Bolshevik party did not represent the population of Russia.
DEFINITION of 'Asset Deficiency'. A situation where a company's liabilities exceed its assets. Asset deficiency is a sign of financial distress and indicates that a company may default on its obligations to creditors and may be headed for bankruptcy. Asset deficiency can also cause a publicly traded company to be delisted from a stock exchange.
If the company takes $8,000 from investors, its assets will increase by that amount, as will its shareholders' equity. All revenues the company generates in excess of its liabilities will go into the shareholders' equity account, representing the net assets held by the owners.
