Presentation of Long-Term Debt

Classification of debt

Current Liability Definition:

? The term "current liabilities" is used principally to designate obligations whose liquidation is reasonably expected to require the use of existing resources properly classifiable as current assets, or the creation of other current liabilities.

? In the shipping industry, "current" is defined as a one-year period after the balance sheet date.

In the case of debt: Classification is generally based on the repayment terms of the debt.

Obligations that, by their terms, are due on demand or will be due on demand within one year must be classified within current liabilities, even though liquidation may not be expected within that period.
