Bonds payable can be found on a company's balance sheet under long-term liabilities. They represent the total amount the company owes to bondholders, which typically includes the face value of the bonds issued minus any unamortized bond discounts or plus unamortized bond premiums. To locate this information, review the financial statements and notes to the financial statements for detailed disclosures regarding outstanding bonds. Additionally, company filings with regulatory agencies, such as the SEC, often provide comprehensive information on bonds payable.
Bonds payable are typically classified as long-term liabilities, as they are debts that usually have maturities longer than one year. However, if a portion of the bonds is due within the next 12 months, that portion would be classified as a current liability. The remainder would remain a long-term liability on the balance sheet.
When a company records an increase in debt, the liability account is increased. This typically involves accounts like loans payable or bonds payable, reflecting the obligation the company has to repay the borrowed amount. Simultaneously, an asset account may also increase, such as cash, if the debt is used to acquire funds.
