I didn't understand this question. I was looking into the current liability and current assets in 2017 lowest book vaule

How do I found out the difference between current liability or current assets? What am I suppose to look for the lowest book value in 2017 from a balance sheet?

"Current assets" are listed under "Assets" at the top of the sample report, and "Current liabilities" under "Liabilities and Sthockholders' Equity" a bit more than halfway down. I found the smallest amount among the 3 items in the liabilities.

I did, however, have a technical issue with this question. If you enter the item name with the capitalization shown, it gets marked both right and wrong at the same time. But it was accepted when entered in all lower case.

Okay, thanks for letting me know.
