Acts of insolvency are actions that indicate a person or company is unable to pay their debts and may be declared insolvent. Here are the steps to understand the mentioned acts:

1. Transfer of property to a third person for benefit of creditors: This is when a debtor transfers their property to another person with the intention that the property will be used to pay off the debtor's creditors. This is often done when the debtor is insolvent or on the verge of insolvency. The property is usually sold and the proceeds are distributed among the creditors.

2. Transfer with intent to defeat creditors: This is a fraudulent act where a debtor transfers their property to another person with the intention of preventing their creditors from being able to access the property to settle the debt. This is illegal and can lead to serious consequences.

3. Fraudulent preferences in transfer of property: This refers to a situation where a debtor, in the event of insolvency, prefers one creditor over others by transferring property or making payments to the preferred creditor, thereby reducing the assets available to other creditors. This is considered unfair and is generally not allowed under insolvency laws.

In all these cases, the common theme is the transfer of property in the context of insolvency, either as a legitimate means to settle debts or as a fraudulent means to evade them.
