Answer

While Classifying the liabilities into Current and Non Current following two points should be taken into consideration:
  1. All liabilities, of which the payment is expected to be made within 12 months from the date of Balance sheet shall be treated as Current. Period of cycle is irrelevant in such cases.
Hence, liabilities in case of (i), (ii) and (vi) shall be treated as Current Liabillities.
  1. Liabilities, of which the payment is expected to be made beyond 12 months from the date of Balance sheet:
  1. If payment period is less than the period of operating cycle, the liabilities shall be treated as current liability.
Hence, liabilities in case of (v) shall be treated as current Liabilities.
  1. If If payment period is more than the period of operating cycle, he liabilities shall be treated as non current liability.
Hence, liabilities in case of (iii) and (iv) shall be treated as non current Liabilities.
