I make widgets and sell them.

Another company buys my widget but they have 3 months to pay me.

They go bust and do not pay me. I have now no money for the widgets I made and I have to pay for the materials and wages.

I go bust and don’t pay the company that sold me the materials.

Much of business works on credit.
