Answer and Explanation:

As we know that

Current Liabilities are the liabilities which are due for one year payment i. e maximum time period.

While the Long Term Liabilities are the liabilities which are to be paid after one year and due beyond the year

Therefore, the classifications are as follows

Current Liabilities: Accounts Payable, Sales & Liquor Tax Payable, Payroll Taxes Payable, Notes Payable

These above are due and paid within one year so it is come under the current liabilities

And,

Long Term Liability: Mortgage on Building as it has a time period above one year
