(b) preparing financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company as at the end of each financial year and of its profit or loss for each financial year in accordance with the requirements of Sections 394 and 395 and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 relating to financial statements, so far as applicable of the company.

These financial statements have been prepared and delivered in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

At the year end, the company had net liabilities of £177,203. The directors have confirmed they will continue to provide financial support to the company until such time that the financial position improves.

As a result of this, it was determined that certain expenses had been incorrectly recorded in the prior year’s profit and loss account. A prior year adjustment has therefore been made to correct these errors, which includes introducing the loan balance as a debtor and reducing the previously overstated purchases for the prior year.
