Correction of Prior Period Error
During the preparation of the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 it was identified that the amounts previously reported as 'Shares in participating interest' of £259,029 and an 'Investment in participating interest' of £2,571 in the prior year’s financial statements were incorrectly recorded as being funded by the company. These amounts were, in fact, made by the director of the company and should have been accounted for in the director loan account. This error has been corrected by restating the comparative figures for the prior year, as outlined below: Impact on the Financial Statements The financial impact of this correction is summarised as follows: The Loan to Subsidiary reported under Fixed Asset Investment has been reduced by £259,029. The Shares in participating interest reported under Fixed Asset Investment has been reduced by £2,571. The corresponding adjustment has been made to the Director’s Loan Account, which has increased by £261,600 in Liabilities. There is no impact on the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the prior year, as these transactions did not affect the company’s income or expenses.
The company acquired the business of Silkwood Silk during the year. The value has been impaired due to uncertainty over its future.

Post balance sheet events
Reclassification of Land from Fixed Assets to Stock During the year, the company held land valued at £100,000, which was classified under Fixed Assets (Property, Plant, and Equipment). Subsequent to the year-end, the company obtained planning permission to develop a property on the land. As a result, the land no longer meets the definition of a fixed asset, as it is now intended for development and sale. In accordance with IAS 2 (Inventories) / FRS 102 Section 13 (Inventories), the land has been reclassified from Fixed Assets to Stock in the post-balance sheet period.
