Answer
Under US GAAP, Short-term loans are classified as long term if the entity intends to refinance the loan on a long-term basis and the entity can demonstrate an ability to refinance the loan prior to when the balance sheet is issued or available to be issued.Hence, $1,125,100 refinanced On January 15, 2017 i.e before the balance sheet is issued is classified as long term
However, the remaining amount refinanced on February 15, 2017 i.e after the balance sheet is issued, is classified a Current
Hence, Current bonds payable= $4,624,300 - $1,109,000 - $1,125,100 = $2,390,200
