Answer 1

Answer:

Moonligh Bay Resorts will report a Non-current liability of $126 million

Explanation:

The question is to determine whether Moonlight Bay Resorts is to report an asset (current or non-current) or a liability (current or non-current) in its December 31st 2021 Balance Sheet

The step is to determine the classification of the items in the balance sheet

This is done as follows

Description                                                                           Amount ($)

Total Deferred Tax liability (168 million + 120 million)        288 million

(Deferred tax liabilities related to

both current and non-current assets)

Total Deferred tax asset (102 million + 60 million)              (162 million)

The net deferred tax liability                                               126 million

Since, under the International Financial Reporting Standards Deferred Tax Liability is a Non-current liability, it means Moonligh Bay Resorts will report a Non-current liability of $126 million
