A loss is not an imbalance of debits and credits, but how much of those debits end up in expenses and the credits end up in revenue.
With no other activity in a period, that is a $1,000 loss funded by cash.
Is a loss funded by borrowings.
Is 0 profit/expense as the sale was marked down to 0 (assuming no cost of sales).
Exactly. My terminology might not be correct, but my point is that their books can be perfectly balanced, and they can also be losing a shit-ton of money, as long as investors keep shoveling money in.
Yeah the terminology
is the opposite of everything discussed above.
