Impact of Mortgage Reporting

The mortgage outstanding for Bramble Co. is $600,000, but over the next year, the company will repay $31,800 of the principal amount. This means that the remaining principal amount after the next year will be $600,000 - $31,800 = $568,200. The $568,200 will be reported under non-current liabilities because it represents the portion of the mortgage that is due beyond one year from the reporting date.

This repurchase results in a decrease in the share capital account by $108,000, leading to a reduction in total shareholders' equity by $118,800. In conclusion, the mortgage will be reported as a non-current liability of $568,200, and the share repurchase will decrease total shareholders' equity by $118,800.
