Statement of finance accounting

Statement of finance accounting is a family-run book publisher that has purposely refrained from using high-technology equipment over the past five years as the directors (the G family) considered it to be a ‘fad’ and a waste of the company’s resources. As a result, the company’s antiquated equipment has failed to produce quality material and has been

very inefficient compared with GyK’s competitors. During the current year, the company’s bankers took possession of the company’s assets, converted all the debt ^{Page | 5} into equity and two directors of the bank were appointed to GyK’s board, which now 

totals four people. The bank is undecided whether it should sell the company’s assets, which have little recoverable value, or reject further equity into the company, purchase more advanced equipment and attempt to trade on and sell the business as a going concern.
