LIABILITIES
Definition of Liabilities
Liabilities are present obligations of an entity to transfer an economic resource as a result of past events.
Accordingly, the essential characteristics of an accounting liability are:
a. The entity has a present obligation.
An obligation is a duty or responsibility that an entity has no practical ability to avoid.
The entity liable must be identified but it is not necessary that the payee to whom the obligation
is owed be identified.
b. The obligation is to transfer an economic resource.
This is the very heart of the definition of an accounting liability.
The economic resource is the asset that represents a right with a potential to produce economic
benefits.
Specifically, the obligation must be to pay cash, transfer noncash asset or provide service at some
future time
c. The liability arises from a past event.
This means that the liability is not recognized until it is incurred.

Present obligation
µ The present obligation may be a legal obligation or a constructive obligation.

Transfer of an economic resource

Without payment of money, without transfer of noncash asset,


without performance of service, there is no accounting liability.

A crystallization of the definitive concept of an accounting liability is


when an entity declares cash dividend. In such a case, there is an
obligation to pay cash, hence, accounting liability exists.

Cash Dividend Share Dividend

Accounting liability No accounting liability

The obligation is to issue the entity’s own shares.


The issuance of the entity’s own shares is not a
transfer of noncash asset because the share capital is
an equity item.

Thus, share dividend payable is classified as a part


of equity rather than an accounting liability.

Past event
& Liability must arise from a past transaction or event.
& The past event that leads to a legal or constructive obligation is known as an obligating event.
& The obligating event creates a present obligation because the entity has no realistic alternative
but to settle the obligation created by the event.

Transactions Obligating Event


Acquisition of goods on account (gives rise to Acquisition of goods.
accounts payable)
Receipt of a bank loan (gives rise to Loan payable) Obligation to repay the loan.

Examples of liabilities
The more common type of liabilities includes the following:
a. Accounts payable to suppliers for the purchase of goods
b. Amounts withheld from employees for taxes and for contributions to the Social Security System,
Philhealth, Pag-ibig, BIR.
c. Accruals for salaries, interest, rent, taxes, product warranties and profit-sharing bonus
d. Cash dividends declared but not paid
e. Deposits and advances from customers
f. Debt obligations for borrowed funds – notes, mortgages, and bonds payable
g. Income tax payable
h. Unearned revenue

Measurement of current liabilities


µ Conceptually, all liabilities are initially measured at present value and subsequently measured at
amortized cost.
µ However, in practice, current liabilities or short-term obligations are not discounted anymore but
measured, recorded, and reported at face amount.
µ The reason is that the discount or the difference between the face amount and the present value
is usually not material and therefore ignored.

Measurement of noncurrent liabilities


µ If the long-term payable is non-interest-bearing note payable, are initially measured at present
value, and subsequently measured at amortized cost.
µ If the long-term note payable is interest-bearing, it is initially and subsequently measured at face
amount. In this case, the face amount is equal to the present value of the note payable.

Nature of Liability Initial Measurement Subsequent Measurement


Current Liability Face Amount -
Non-current liability Face Amount Amortized Cost
Interest Bearing Note
Non-current liability Present Value Amortized Cost
Non-interest-bearing Note

Face Amount – 500,000


Less: Present Value – 450,000
Unearned Interest – 50,000

ü Deferred revenue is similar to unearned revenue except that deferred revenue is long-term.
ü Share dividends payable (stock dividends payable) is not a liability but rather an adjunct equity
account (i.e., presented as addition to share capital).
ü The guarantee on the loan is not recognized as liability because it is not probable (i.e, it is possible
only) that ABC will be held liable for the guarantee.

Estimated liabilities
° Estimated liabilities are obligations which exist at the end of reporting period although their
amount is not definite.
° In many cases, the date when the obligation is due is not also definite and in some instances, the
exact payee cannot be identified or determined.
° But despite these circumstances, the existence of the estimated liabilities is valid and
unquestioned.
° Estimated liabilities are either current or noncurrent in nature,
° Examples include estimated liability for premium, award points, warranties, gift certificates and
bonus.

Deferred revenue
° Deferred revenue or unearned revenue is income already received but not yet earned.
° If the unearned revenue is realizable within one year, it is a current liability.
° Typical examples or current unearned/deferred revenue are unearned interest income, unearned
rental income, and unearned subscription revenue.
° If the deferred revenue is realizable in more than one year, it is classified as noncurrent liability.
° Typical examples of noncurrent deferred revenue are unearned revenue from long-term service
contracts and long-term leasehold advances.

Illustration
An entity sells equipment service contacts agreeing to service equipment for 2-year period.
Cash receipts from contracts are credited to unearned service revenue and service contract costs are
charged to service contract expense.
Revenue from service contracts is recognized as earned over the service period of the contract.

Cash receipts from service contracts sold 1,000,000
Service contact costs paid 500,000
Service contact revenue recognized 800,000

Gift certificate
Many megamalls, department stores and supermarkets sell gift certificates which are redeemable in
merchandise. The accounting procedure are:
1. When the gift certificates are sold:
Cash xx
Gift certificates payable xx
The latter amount is a current liability.

2. When the gift certificates are redeemed:


Gift certificates payable xx
Sales xx

3. When the gift certificates expire or when gift certificates are not redeemed:
Gift certificates payable xx
Forfeited gift certificates xx
The Philippine Department of Trade Industry ruled that gift certificates no longer have an
expiration period.

Bonus computation
& Large entities often compensate key officers and employees by way of bonus for superior income
realized during the year.
& The main purpose of this scheme is to motivate officers and employees by directly relating their
well-being to the success of the entity.
& This compensation plan results in liability that must be measured and reported in the financial
statements. The bonus computation usually has four variations:
1. Bonus is expressed as a certain percent of income before bonus and before tax.
2. Bonus is expressed as a certain percent of income after bonus but before tax.
3. Bonus is expressed as a certain percent of income after bonus and after tax.
4. Bonus is expressed as a certain percent of income after tax but before bonus.

Refundable deposits
& Refundable deposits consist of cash or property received from customers, but which are
refundable after compliance with certain condition.
& The best example of a refundable deposit is the customer deposit required for returnable
containers like bottles, drums, tanks, and barrels.

Illustration
A deposit of P10,000 is required from the customer for returnable containers. the containers cost P8,0000.
Cash 10,000
Container’s deposit 10,000

° The containers’ deposit account is usually classified as current liability.


° If the customer returns the containers, the deposit is simply refunded.
° However, if the customer fails to return the containers, the deposit is considered the sale price of
the containers.
° The excess of the deposit over the cost of the containers is considered as gain.
