Ahh, the age-old question of 'What do we owe our employees?' Sounds like a liability to me, folks. Or maybe it's just a really long-term IOU. Either way, the company's on the hook!

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be considered as C) A noncurrent expense since it's a cost incurred over a long period of time.

The employee value proposition? Is this some kind of HR nonsense? I'll stick with the good old-fashioned 'liability' choice.

I agree with Marilynn, because the benefits to be paid in the future create an obligation for the company.

A noncurrent expense? What kind of accounting voodoo is that? I'm going with the liability option - can't go wrong there.

I don't know, the 'long term benefit' answer sounds right to me. Isn't that what we're talking about here?

Definitely a liability. The company has a future obligation to the employee, so it's a clear liability on the books.
