Learning Objective Describe and illustrate current liabilities related to accounts payable, current portion of long- term debt, and notes payable 1

3 Current Liabilities o When a company or a bank advances credit, it is making a loan. o The company or bank is called a creditor (or lender). o The individuals or companies receiving the loans are called debtors (or borrowers).

4 Current Liabilities o Long-term liabilities are debts due beyond one year. o Current Liabilities are debts that will be paid out of current assets and are due within one year.

5 Short-Term Notes Payable o A discounted note has the following characteristics:  The interest rate on the note is called the discount rate.  The amount of interest on the note, called the discount, is computed by multiplying the discount rate times the face amount of the note.  The debtor (borrower) receives the face amount of the note less the discount, called the proceeds.  The debtor must repay the face amount of the note on the due date.
