|
10. | GOING CONCERN |
|
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In the opinion of the directors |
this is appropriate because they have undertaken to continue to support the company. The shareholder |
loans are interest free and unsecured, and the shareholders' will not withdraw these funds in the |
forthcoming year. The directors have undertaken to introduce further funds if the need arises. |
|
The directors expect, therefore, that the company will be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due. |
|
If the company was unable to continue trading, adjustments would have to be made to reduce the |
value of the assets to their recoverable amount, to provide for any further liabilities which might arise, |
and to reclassify fixed assets and long-term liabilities as current assets and liabilities. |
