∙ 12y agoThe current liabilities in the balance sheet are those amounts owed by the company at the end of the current year which are expected to be paid or otherwise settled within the next accounting cycle (usually that means over the next 12 months) - items such as Accounts Payable, interest and/or principal payable on borrowings by the corporation, or wages earned or taxes incurred during the current year that are unpaid at the end of that year.
If at the current year-end, the firm owes a liability (or has an obligation) that it must pay or settle over severalfuture years, only the portion that will become due over the next 12 months will be classified as a current liability on that year's balance sheet, while the remainder of the debt or obligation debt would be classified as a noncurrent liability.

Meaning that there is no order within assets as to which they are listed I suppose. **Note: I copied & pasted this answer from another website.

What is the Difference between classified balance sheet and unclassified balance sheet?
A classified balance sheet allows the readers to determine the working capital of the company by separating the current portion of assets and liabilities from the non-current portion. An unclassified balance sheet does not distinguish the difference between current and non-current for the assets and liabilities (therefore working capital is not available to the reader). GAAP suggests that most companies use a classified balance sheet unless the classification distinction provides little to no relevance for the audience of the financial statements. See SFAS 6 paragraph 7.
