Explanation:
a) Prepaid Expenses are classified as follows:
Current Assets: $160,000 - $66,000 = $94,000
Long-Term Assets = $66,000 ($132,000/2)
Since a year's lease is due in the next year.
b) Investments are classified as current because they include treasury bills maturing on January 30, 2019, and marketable securities saleable next year.
c) Deferred Revenue is a current liability.
d) The classifications of notes payable are indicated in the balance sheet.
