During the Chapter 11 reorganization, what is the intended outcome?

• A. Continued operation and a plan to satisfy obligations
• B. Immediate discharge of all debts
• C. Liquidation of all assets
• D. Transfer to Chapter 12

Answer: (A)

Chapter 11 is about keeping the business operating while it reorganizes its debts under a court-approved plan. The goal is to allow the company to continue running, negotiate with creditors, and develop a plan to pay or reduce debts over time. This approach aims to emerge from bankruptcy as a viable entity, rather than shutting down or liquidating everything. Immediate discharge of all debts isn’t the aim here, and liquidation of all assets is the path of Chapter 7, not Chapter 11. Moving to Chapter 12 is a different route for certain farmers or fishermen, not the general goal of Chapter 11.
