Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the Trustees consider to be appropriate for the following reasons. Our Long-Term Financial Plan confirms the Board has a reasonable expectation that Brunelcare has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a period of twelve months after the date on which the report and financial statements are signed.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
