Any company or business must have working capital in order to
maintain operations. In order to determine a working capital,
current assets are subtracted from current liabilities. This
indicates the financial strength of a company as it outlines
whether or not a company has enough cash or assets to pay for
liabilities. Liabilities are defined as the legal obligations or
financial debts of a company that develop throughout course of
business operations (Kimmel, Weygandt, & Kieso, 2019). Some
examples of liabilities include short/long term borrowing from
individuals, banks, or entities. Additionally, there are various
types of liabilities such as current liabilities and long-term
liabilities. Current liabilities are payable within one operating
cycle/one year and are written on the balance sheet in the order
that payments are due. A few examples of current liabilities are
wages and salaries, notes payable, accounts payable (revenue
owed to vendors), and deferred revenues (goods that were paid
for but not yet delivered) (Kimmel, Weygandt, & Kieso, 2019).
In contrast, long-term liabilities are payable beyond one
operating cycle/one year and are written in separate formal
documents that are inclusive of important details of transactions
(e.g. interest, principal amount, and due date). Bonds payable,
mortgages, leases, pension obligations, bank notes, and bank
loans are all examples of long-term liabilities.

Respond to...
Liabilities are creditors' claims on total assets and as existing
debt per Kimmel (2011). Liabilities are debt a company settles
by transferring assets or services. In determining the differences
between current liabilities and long term liabilities, future
maturity dates are very important. A debt that is expected to be
paid by existing current assets or creation of other current
liabilities within one year or operating cycle is a current
liability. Long term liabilities are debts that will not meet the
two proceeding criteria (Kimmel 2011).
Major types of current liabilities are: account payable, accounts
payable, accrued liabilities, and unearned revenues. Accrued
liabilities can be things such as taxes, salaries, wages, and
interest. Many notes payable have future payoff date beyond a
year cycle if operation does not make payable long term
liabilities. Taking a very close look went in a company would
be ideal to notice the differences. I would love to be advice
about future decision concerning investments. A company with
less long term liabilities is ideal for me, and ability to save after
current liabilities are paid off.
