Since current liabilities usually require the use of current funds, it might be considered justifiable to offset them against current assets, However, the principle of disclosure requires that they be shown separately unless a specific right of offset exists. APB Opinion No. 10 (see FASB ASC 210-20-05-1) emphasized this point in stating: “It is a general principle of accounting that offsetting of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet are improper except where a right of offset exists” Hershey’s 2008 balance sheet includes all of the typical items and discloses total current liabilities of 1,270,212,000,whereas Tootsie Roll’s are 59,252,000.
