    The current portion of any long term liability is the amount which is due in the current year of the balance sheet. So in this case the current portion of the long term note payable is $56,000 as it is the amount which is due within the current balance sheet year.

    Debit Credit

    Equipment 280,000

    Long term Note payable 280,000

    Long term Note payable 56,000

    Current portion of long term note 56,000

    First we will debit equipment because an asset is increasing and credit long term note payable because a liability is increasing.

    Then we will debit long term note payable as a portion of the long term note is a current liability, and we will thus credit current portion of a long term note.
