business (noun, busi-ness, \ ˈbɪznəs \) entity (noun, en-ti-ty, \ ˈentəti \) concept (noun, con-cept, \ ˈkɑːnsept \)

Definition: is a notion stating that the financial activities linked to a specific business have to be independently recorded from those of the corporate entity’s owner(s). To implement this concept, the said owner has to keep a disassociated accounting record for the business that doesn’t contain any assets or liabilities tied to the owner himself. Relieved of this concept, the financial records of several entities would blend, making it impossible to detect the financial activities of an individual organization.
