And before I forget: in a balance sheet? No, surely in an income statement. The day we start seeing income reported in a balance sheet, I think we can safely say the lunatics are running the asylum. |

| Grading comment Thanks, and it was a income statement. It's just that they're invariably attached to balance sheets in business plans, and to be frank, the client wasn't even aware that the file included the annual accounts. He just asked for the business plan and later decided the accounts ought to be translated as well.
