Accounts not prepared on a going-concern basis
It is the intention of the directors to liquidate the business within the 12 months from the signing date of these accounts. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a basis other than that of a going concern which includes, where appropriate, writing down the company's assets to net realisable value. The financial statements do not include any provision for the future costs of terminating the business of the company.
