Machine of €85,000 is a non- current asset.
Loan of €80,000 will be repaid in 10 equal half-yearly instalments, with the first instalment falling due on 10 May 2017, the second instalment on 10 November 2017.
Half-yearly instalment = 80,000/10
= €8,000
Two Half-yearly instalments of €16,000 (payable within next 12 months) represent current liability.
Remaining portion of the loan i.e €64,000 (80,000 - 16,000) represents non- current liability.
