Yes, they do. Liabilities always arise, if say it buys supplies but cannot pay for them, or if someone has an accident because of the business person's negligence. The important issue is whether the business's liabilities become personal liabilites of the person running the business. If a person runs a business in what is called a sole proprietorship or simple partnership, the company's liabilities will become those of the business owners. If the company goes out of business, the owner has to use his/her personal assets to pay them. If the business operates as a corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership, depending on state laws, that business's liabilities will not attach to the persons running the business except in extreme circumstances. If that business fails and goes out of business, the owners are not personally liable.
First of all it would be better if you take some kind of business study's that will prepare you for the day to day running of a corporation.
