current liabilities of $130,000, with required footnote disclosure of the refinancing of the loan.

For any liability to be termed as long term, the term of repayment should be more than 1 year, in the above questions the term of the loan is unknown, thus the only information given is that the loan has to be repaid after year end but before finalisation of accounts, which is less than a year.
