Reveal answer & explanation

Correct answer: C) Current liabilities $20,000; non-current liabilities $100,000

Explanation

IAS 1 classifies a liability as current if it is due to be settled within twelve months of the reporting date. Only the next instalment of $20,000 falls due within twelve months, so it is current, and the remaining $100,000 is non-current.
