Best Answer

In general, yes, accrued liabilities are considered current because a formal request (e.g., invoice, tax bill, etc.) from the entity who is owed the debt will make the debt current. Since there are few creditors who will wait more than a year to let an organization know that they would like to be paid (for the first time), accrued liabilities should be considered current.

Exceptions sometimes occur in legal cases lasting longer than one year where a company may have a judgment for money against them. In these cases, the liability may not be current until there is more clarity as to (1) when the case will be judged and (2) what amount is to be requested.
