accounts payable

Money a business owes to others. Accounts payable are current liabilities incurred in the normal course of business as a firm purchases goods or services with the understanding that payment is due at a later date. If a firm pays cash for all of its purchases, no accounts payable will appear on that firm's balance sheet.
