Bus/Financial - Accounting / Balance sheet | | French term or phrase: Comptes débiteurs du passif | This item appears at the very bottom of the Assets lists (just above the net total) in a balance sheet.
There is a corresponding 'Comptes créditeurs de l'actif' at the bottom of the Liabilities list (just above the net total again).
Unfortunately, accounts receivable/payable already appear, so I'm really not sure what to translate these as. |

| Grading comment I've opted for this solution simply because 'balance(s)' appear elsewhere already and so I think incorporating 'accounts' differentiates this term from what exists elsewhere. Thanks.
