During the period ended 30 September 2024 the company made an investment as nominee on behalf of five investors. This was incorrectly recorded in the accounts as if the company had made the investment in its own name for its own benefit, and reported as a fixed asset investment held by the company, with the original funds received from the investors reflected as repayable loans within other creditors. The company accounts also included an unrealised fair value movement through the profit and loss account for the change in value of the investment at the year end, and omitted accrued income and expenses. The consequence of these errors was that at 30 September 2024:
- investments were overstated by £261,393
- accrued income was understated by £4,445
- other creditors were overstated by £291,318
- accrued expenses were understated by £4,445, and
- a loss of £29,925 was reported for the movement in the fair value of the investment.
The impact of the above adjustments is that the loss of £29,925 reported in the previous period is reduced to £nil and the brought forward deficit on retained earnings at 1 April 2024 also reduces to £nil. The comparatives shown in these financial statements have been restated to reflect the true position.
