This definition includes three crucial factors: 1. A past transaction or event. 2. A present obligation. 3. A future payment of assets or services. Classifying Liabilities Expected to be paid within one year or the company’s operating cycle, whichever is longer. Current Liabilities C 1 Current liabilities are expected to be paid within one year or the normal operating cycle of the company, whichever is longer. Current liabilities are usually extinguished by payment of current assets. Long-term liabilities are not expected to be paid or extinguished within one year. In this chapter, we will concentrate on current liabilities. Current and Long-Term Liabilities Current Liabilities as a Percent of Total Liabilities C 1 The relationship between total liabilities and current liabilities depends upon the nature of business operations. Six Flags, an amusement park, has a relatively low percentage of current liabilities as a percentage of total liabilities, especially when compared to Columbia Sportswear or Apple Computer. Uncertainty of Liabilities Uncertainty in When to Pay C 1 Uncertainty in Whom to Pay Uncertainty in How Much to Pay Before we can determine the nature of a liability and properly classify it, we must examine three major uncertainties. First, we must determine whether we know who will be paid to extinguish the liability. Second, we must know when the amount must be paid, and third, we must know exactly how much must be paid to extinguish the liability. If we don’t know all three, we do not have a determinable liability.
