Assets
Assets are should be classified only into two: current assets and non-current assets. Per
revised Philippine Accounting Standards (PAS) No. 1, an entity shall classify assets as
Current when:
a. it expects to realize the asset, or intends to sell or consume it, in its normal
operating cycle;
b, it holds the asset primarily for the purpose of trading;
C. it expects to realize the asset within twelve months after the reporting period; or
d. the asset is cash or à cash equivalent (as defined in PAS No. 7) unless the asset is
restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve
months after the reporting period.

All other assets should be classified as non-current assets. Operating cycle is the time
between the acquisition of assets for processing and their realization in cash or cash
equivalents. When the entity's normal operating cycle is not clearly identifiable, it is
assumed to be twelve months.
