An annual report of Marriott International, Inc., contained a rather lengthy narrative entitled Liquidity and Capital Resources. The narrative noted that a revolving credit agreement outstanding at the end of the year aggregated $4.5 billion and that during the following year, While any outstanding commercial paper borrowings and/or borrowings under our Credit Facility generally have short-term maturities, we classify the outstanding borrowings as long-term based on our ability and intent to refinance the outstanding borrowings on a long-term basis. The Credit Facility expires on June 28, 2024.

How did Marriott report the debt in its balance sheet? Why?
