Liquidity is a measure of how quickly an item may be converted to cash. Therefore cash is the most liquid asset. Account receivable is a relatively liquid asset because the business expects to collect the amount in cash in the near future. Supplies are less liquid than accounts receivable, and furniture and buildings are even less so. Users of financial statements are interested in liquidity because business difficulties often arise owing to a shortage of cash. Balance sheets list assets and liabilities in the order of their relative liquidity.　　Current Assets. Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted to cash, sold, or consumed during the next 12 months or within the business39。s normal operating cycle if longer than a year. The operating cycle is the time span during which (1) cash is used to acquire goods and services, and (2) these goods and services are sold to customers, who in turn pay for their purchases with cash. For most businesses, the operating cycle is a few months. A few types of business have operating cycles longer than a year. Cash Accounts Receivable, Notes receivable due within a year or less are current assets. Merchandising entities such as Sears, Penney39。s and K Mart have an additional current asset. Inventory. This account shows the cost of goods that are held for sale to customers.　　Longterm Assets. Longterm assets are all assets other than current assets. They are not held for sale, but rather they are used to operate the business. One category of longterm assets is plant assets, or fixed assets. Land, buildings, furniture and fixtures, and equipment are examples of plant assets.　　Financial statement users such as creditors are most interested in the due dates of an entity39。s liabilities. The sooner a liability must be paid, the more current it is. Liabilities that must be paid on the earliest future date create the greatest stain on cash. Therefore, the balance sheet lists liabilities in the order in which they are due. Knowing how many of a business39。s liabilities are current and how many are longterm helps creditors assess the likelihood of collecting from the entity. Balance sheets usually have at least two liability classifications, current liabilities and longterm liabilities.　　Current liabilities. Current liabilities are debts that are due to be paid within one year, or within the entity39。s operating cycle. Notes Payable due within one year, Salary Payable, Unearned Revenue, and Interest Payable owed on notes payable are current liabilities.　　Longterm Liabilities. All liabilities that are not current are classified as longterm liabilities. Other notes payable are paid in installments, with the first installment due within one year, the second installment due the second year, and so on. In this case, the first installment would be a current liability and the remainder a longterm liability.75. Which is the most liquid asset on the balance sheet except cash.A. Accounts Receivable.B.
