Receivables and other assets on California form FL-142

Money owed, claims, intellectual property, digital assets and any property that does not fit a prior category.

What to capture

  • What the right is and who owes it
  • Probability and timing of collection
  • Restrictions, costs and tax characteristics
  • Ownership and acquisition date

The failure mode to catch

Omitting an asset because its value is uncertain. Unknown is a value state, not a reason to hide the row.

Keep the source date and any uncertainty visible. A reviewer should be able to distinguish a supported figure, an estimate, an unknown value and an affirmative statement that no such property exists.

Documents that usually resolve it

  • Contract, note or claim file
  • Payment history
  • Digital wallet or platform statement
  • Valuation or collectability analysis

How it moves downstream

The entry should retain its form item, description, value date, character claim and source. If it enters the community division, it must flow into the face-value total. If it cannot yet be valued, it should remain visible outside the negotiable pool rather than disappearing.

A second disclosure may describe the same receivables and other assets differently. Reconcile on durable identifiers and preserve differences in date, value, debt and characterization for review.
