What Is a Current Liability?

Answer:

An entity shall classify a liability as current when:

• It expects to settle the liability in its normal operating cycle;
• It holds the liability primarily for the purpose of trading;
• The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or
• The entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

An entity shall classify all other liabilities as non-current.
