That was exactly the same. * Did you not infer my accountant had produced the balance sheet, *not *me? Did the fact I checked another UK company, once again indicate I thought the issue was specific to the UK? *It should have done.* 4) Did you see the reply from Adrian Yong, which was * I asked for the same thing but was told that since entries are made using the double entry system, Assets = Liability + Proprietorship is complied with... * Would that not indicate I was asking a reasonable question, the fact someone else had asked the same question?
