Raffie's Kids, a non-profit organization that provides aid to victims of domestic violence, low-income families, and special-needs children has a 30-year, 5% mortgage on the existing building. The mortgage requires monthly payments of $3,000. Raffie's bookkeeper is preparing financial statements for the board and in doing so, lists the mortgage balance of $287,000 under current liabilities because the board hopes to be able to pay the mortgage off in full next year. $20,000 of the mortgage principal will, be paid next year if Raffie's pays according to the mortgage agreement.
Requirement
