Question

Current liabilities could include all of the following except: A. any part of long-term debt due during the current period. B. a notes payable due in 9 months. C. a bank loan due in 18 months. D. an accounts payable due in 30 days.

Answer 1

Answer: C. a bank loan due in 18 months.

Explanation:

Current liabilities include all the debt obligations that a company has in the current period.

This means that only debt obligations that mature within a year are to be considered current liabilities.

Bank loans that are due in 18 months are over a year and so have to be considered long-term liabilities not current liabilities.
