Current Deferred Revenue
Current Deferred Revenue is a financial metric that represents the current portion of a company's deferred revenue or unearned revenue that is expected to be recognized as revenue within the next twelve months. Deferred revenue is a liability that arises when a company receives advance payments from customers for goods and services that are yet to be delivered. The recognition of deferred revenue as revenue is spread over time as the company actually fulfills its obligations to the customer.
Current Deferred Revenue is usually reported on the balance sheet under current liabilities, and it is an important metric to monitor as it provides an indication of a company's expected income in the near future. It can also impact the company's cash flow as the company may receive the cash upfront, but it would not be recognized as revenue until the obligation is fulfilled.
