Q9. Explain the different types of liabilities dealt with the financial institutions with example.

The liabilities are differentiating into two types i.e. Current and Non-Current. The distinction is made on the basis of time period.

a)     Current Liability: It is one which the entity expects to pay off within one year from the reporting date.

b)     Non-Current Liability: It is one which the entity expects to settle after one year from the reporting date.
Types and examples

Following are examples the common types of liabilities along with their usual classifications.


Liability    Classification          
Long Term Bank              
Loan    Non-current          
Bank Overdraft    current          
Short Term Bank    current          
Loan              
Trade Payables    current          
Debenture    Non-current          
Tax Payable    Current         

It may be appropriate to break up a single liability into their current and non-current portions. For instance, a bank loan spanning two years and carrying 2 equal installments payable at the end of each year would be classified half as current and half as non-current liability at the inception of loan.
