Ms Janie, a client who has traded as a hardware merchant for the last five years, has told you that she finds difficulty in understanding the draft profit and loss account for the year ended 31 December 2010 which has been prepared by your assistant. Ms Janie’s main concern is that, although the accounts show a profit, the bank overdraft at 31 December 2010 was significantly higher than it was a year earlier.
