Option C.

Current liabilities, $420,000;

Long-term Debt, $1,260,000.

Explanation:

The reason is that the amount that will be paid within the next 12 is current liabilities, so the amount $420,000 is current liability as it will be paid within the next 12 months. So the remainder of the amount that is not payable in the next 12 months is long term liability.

Long Term Liability = $1,680,000 Total Payable Amount - $420,000 Current Liability

Long Term Liability = $1,260,000
