                     Balance Sheet (Partial)

                   As at December 31, 2018

Assets

Current Assets:

Accounts receivable      $12,000

Inventories                       40,000

Treasury Bill                     30,000

Prepaid insurance              3,000

Total current assets     $85,000

Prepaid insurance $6,000/2 = $3,000 is for current years. Therefore, $3,000 is a current assets. Since treasury bill is an investment and for 3 months, it is a current assets.
