Re: Gerund and to verb

Hi Tony

Unearned revenue is reported as a liability, [reflecting the company's obligation to deliver product in the future].


Yes, "reflecting" is a present participle. No, it's not being used as an adjective, but a verb with the noun phrase "the company's obligation to deliver product in the future" as its direct object. Clauses like this (the one in brackets) are called participial clauses.
