Explanation:

Held to maturity debt investments are the debt investment held till the maturity. This type of investment can be both current and non-current depending upon the time from date of purchase till the date of maturity. Investment whose maturity date is within 12 months  from the date of purchase are classified under current assets. where as investment whose maturity date falls beyond 12 months are classified under long term assets.

1. The bonds are held for maturity from January 2018 to December 2022. The maturity date falls after 4 years.

Accordingly, the debt investments are classified under assets section as long term investments up to December, 2020. For balance sheet on December 2021, the investment is classified as a short term investment under the current assets section.
