a. Is management’s intent enough to support long-term classification of the obligation in this situation?
b. Assume that Dumars Corporation issues $13,000,000 of 10-year debentures to the public in January 2021 and that management intends to use the proceeds to liquidate the $10,000,000 debt maturing in March 2021. Furthermore, assume that the debt maturing in March 2021 is paid from these proceeds prior to the issuance of the financial statements. Will this have any impact on the balance sheet classification at December 31, 2020? Explain your answer.
c. Assume that Dumars Corporation, on December 15, 2020, entered into a financing agreement with a commercial bank that permits Dumars Corporation to borrow at any time through 2022 up to $15,000,000 at the bank’s prime rate of interest. Borrowings under the financing agreement mature three years after the date of the loan. The agreement is not cancelable except for violation of a provision with which compliance is objectively determinable. No violation of any provision exists at the date of issuance of the financial statements. Assume further that the current portion of long-term debt does not mature until August 2021. In addition, management has the contractual right to refinance the $10,000,000 obligation under the terms of the financial agreement with the bank, which is expected to be financially capable of honoring the agreement.
