Hi, I've not got the question to hand but the provision is likely a non-current liability as it is not settled until more than 12 months after the reporting date. I can only presume that the amount deducted from the income statement (profit or loss) is from revenue as the amount is in relation to deferred income, i.e. funds received but which should not be recognised until the following year. The amount on the SFP will be the deferred income balance which will be released next year, i.e. within 12 months and so will be a current liability. Hope that helps. Thanks
