Classification of loans
The classification of loans depends on the term of loans and the type of loan. Term of loans:
Short-term loan: current liability Long-term loan: non-current liability
Type of loans: Interest only loan: non-current liability as it does not
involve an obligation due within 12 months. Installment loan: two components.
Current liability component: installment to be paid within 12 months.
Non-current liability component: instalments outstanding for more than 12 months.
Classification of loans (Cont’d)
Interest-only loan: the principal of the loan is repaid until the loan period expires. Advantage: borrower has time to repay the principal. Disadvantage: borrower needs to be well-planned to repay the
whole principal. Installment loan: repayments are made throughout the life of the
loan. These installments are usually sated as a dollar amount per month or per quarter. Advantage: avoid having to make one lump sum payment. Disadvantage: borrower is under pressure to make periodic
repayments.
