Answer 2

Answer:

Direct Liability-

• Anyone who personally causes harm or injury to another person or property is directly liable and must pay for the damage.

Indirect Liability-

• A potential obligation that may arise under certain conditions is referred to as an indirect liability.

Explanation:

Direct Liability-

• A person who throws a stone and breaks a window, for example, is directly responsible to the owner of that window.
• A direct liability is the inverse of an indirect liability in that a person or company becomes liable as a result of another person's or company's act or omission.

Indirect Liability-

• An entity has an indirect liability when it is a secondary obligor on a liability where another party is the primary obligor.
• The entity will be held liable only if the primary obligor fails to meet its payment obligations.
• A secondary liability can also exist when an event, such as an unfavourable outcome to a lawsuit, may occur in the future that will trigger an obligation.

Hence, we can conclude that a direct liability is easy to identify as compared to an indirect liability.
