Key words: aid money, donor funds, state subsidies, reserve capital nonprofit activities, commercial activities, earmarked income, grants, admission and membership fees, donations.
Among the important sources of financing the activities of NGOs are their obligations in the sense of accounting. In NGOs, like all enterprises, recognition, evaluation and financial reporting of obligations based on international standards is a very urgent issue.
Legally descriptive definitions of liabilities can be found in sources related to the field, for example, "liabilities are creditors' debts arising from the implementation of various transactions by the enterprise, which are the legal basis for further payments for goods, services provided and work performed. is defined as " 25. After the introduction of international standards, definitions corresponding to it began to be developed, among which the following definition can be cited in the Russian literature: "liabilities are the debts of the enterprise, which arise as a result of past events, and its extinguishment leads to the outflow of resources embodying economic value to be obtained in the future." 26- is defined as.
Let's get acquainted with the definitions given in other sources. "Liabilities are a component of the balance sheet and are a source of formation of financial resources for financing operational, investment and financial activities of the enterprise. Future liabilities must be paid by transferring assets or services to creditors. Thus, liabilities are creditors' claims against the company's assets. The existence of obligations (debts) reduces the economic application of the enterprise and its capital 27.
"Liabilities are a source of funds raised as a result of events (transactions) of the enterprise, which serves as a legal basis for future payments for goods, services rendered and work performed" 28.

R.H. Hermanson gives the following definition of obligations: "Liabilities are obligations arising as a result of past transactions and obligations to pay money, provide services or deliver goods in future periods 29. "
The fifth paragraph of Article 17 of the Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan "On Accounting" states that "obligations of the parties will be expressed in money in accordance with the agreement" 30it was noted. The third paragraph of Article 8 of the Law "On Non-Governmental Non-Commercial Organizations" of the Republic of Uzbekistan states that it is necessary to use its property and funds, including freedom of access to information about funding sources.31
The method of comparing the rules of the National Accounting Standards of the Republic of Uzbekistan with the International Standards of Financial Reporting, classification rules based on certain criteria, logical analysis, analysis and synthesis methods were used in the research work.
Today, we believe that it is necessary to improve our national conceptual frameworks based on the definitions given to assets and liabilities in the new version of the international conceptual frameworks. We formalize the results of comparing the provisions of the international conceptual framework and the national conceptual framework in the following table (Table 1):

Table comparing international conceptual frameworks and national _conceptual frameworks of financial reporting32_
In the new edition of "Conceptual basis of financial reporting" (2018)33 in "Conceptual bases of preparation and presentation of financial statements".34
Liabilities are legal obligations of an entity to transfer economic resources arising from past events. 38.2. Obligations are the obligations of a person (debtor) to perform certain actions for the benefit of another person (creditor), for example, to transfer property, perform work, pay money and other obligations, or to refrain from certain behavior, and the creditor has the right to demand that the debtor fulfill his obligations.

It is clear from these definitions that the definitions of obligations in national standards do not correspond to international standards. In the national standard, the definition is given in the legal sense, not in the accounting sense. Legal obligation arises from the moment of conclusion of the contract. Usually, accounting obligations arise from events and transactions of the past period. For example, when goods and raw materials are purchased, there is an obligation to pay for them. In the same way, if the obligation to the budget arises when taxes on past activities are calculated, then the obligation to pay wages to workers arises when the wages are calculated based on the working days actually worked or the work performed. Disruption of these liabilities leads to an outflow of resources that embody economic value, such as cash or other assets. In accounting standards, it is considered appropriate to define the terms in the accounting sense. Taking into account the above standard requirements, we consider it appropriate to define the terms of obligations as the main elements of financial reporting in the accounting sense as follows:
Liabilities are the legal obligations of the organization to transfer its economic resources arising from past events, the extinguishment of which leads to the outflow of economic resources embodying the inevitable economic value of the organization or the emergence of new obligations.
Based on this definition, it is appropriate to highlight the following two features of obligations:
• an existing obligation of the enterprise, it will be possible to perform it in the future by transferring assets or rendering services, by specifying to whom and under what conditions it will be performed;
• an event giving rise to this obligation has occurred, that is, at this moment, this obligation is valid and does not arise as a result of transactions that have not yet been completed.
Obligations are classified according to certain characteristics. We show their classification in the table below (Table 2):
Table 2
Classification of obligations according to different criteria35
Classification criteria Types of obligations
According to the length of the debt repayment period Short-term liabilities
Long-term liabilities
According to its description as a financial instrument Financial obligations
Non-financial liabilities
As it occurs depending on the main process Trade Obligations
Non-trade (other) liabilities
According to the conditionality criterion Contingent liabilities
Non-contingent obligations
According to the activity Obligations related to operational activities
35 Studies based on authorship development

Depending on the relationship of the parties Obligations with related parties (subsidiaries, subsidiaries and separate divisions).
Obligations incurred with unrelated parties
Depending on the completion of the term Debts due
Past due debt
Extended debt
Depending on the assessment of the probability of occurrence Actual (net identifiable) liabilities
Assessable Liabilities
Contingent liabilities
According to the term, liabilities are divided into short-term liabilities and long-term liabilities (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Classification of liabilities by maturity
The concept of financial liabilities is included in accordance with the standard of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Commission No. 32 "Financial instruments: presentation of information", which is defined as follows: "Financial liabilities are any obligations under the contract: (a) to provide funds or other financial assets to other enterprises; (b) exchanging financial instruments with other entities on potentially unattractive terms; (c) accounts - books, which are implemented or can be implemented at the expense of private contribution instruments 36.
In our opinion, taking into account all the classification bases of the above obligations, we should follow certain rules when placing the information on the obligations in the accounting balance. According to national and international standards, the following are included among the information that should be reflected in the accounting balance sheet (Table 3):

77.7 accounts payable (k) trade and other payables 77.7 trade and other payables
77.8 Exclusions (l) Reserves 77.8 reserves
77.9 Obligations requiring payment of interest (m) financial obligations (other than the amounts specified in subparagraphs (k) and (l). 77.9 other financial obligations (except 77.7 and 78)
77.10 Equity and Reserves (o) Obligations for taxes in accordance with Standard 12 MXCC "Profit Tax" 77.10 Tax obligations (except profit tax)
(p) Obligations included in outgoing groups classified as held for sale in IFRS 5 77.11 Income Tax Liabilities
As shown in this table, the primary payables are divided into trade and non-trade payables. In order to bring the composition of obligations in our current balance sheet into line with international standards, we will first need to develop its classification (Figure 2):
