Which is not the example of current liabilities ?

  • A.Advance from customers
  • B.Contingent liabilities
  • C.Bank overdraft
  • D.Provident fund dues

Answer: B

The item that is not a current liability is contingent liabilities.

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that depends on an uncertain future event, such as a guarantee given for a loan or a claim being disputed in court. Because it is not yet an actual liability, it is not included among the liabilities in the balance sheet and is disclosed by a note instead.

The others are actual obligations payable within a year. Advances from customers must be met by supplying goods or refunding, a bank overdraft is repayable on demand, and provident fund dues owed to the authorities must be paid shortly.
