Changes to the templates made in the October 2006 edition

Operating profit note in medium/large template
Auditors' remuneration is now split between audit services and non-audit services (split is required for large companies, but not medium or small sized)

Creditors notes
A fault that incorrectly hid the foot total when the note contained preference shares and only one other category of creditor has been fixed.

Share capital note
An error in the formula for the total of issued equity and non-equity share capital has been corrected. This error only applied if the company had non-equity (preference) shares and applied to small companies only.

A bug that in some circumstances incorrectly hid the text re the issue of shares has been fixed. If you have this problem in an old workbook, click here to fix.

Audit report
An option is now included in the Workbook Properties dialog to include a clause re the provision of non-audit services in accordance with APB Ethical Standard - Provisions Available for Small Entities.

The wording for the audit report for periods beginning on or after 1 April 2005 has been changed to comply with the example in APB Bulletin 2006/6 'Auditor's Reports on Financial Statements in the United Kingdom'. However, the wording in the Jan 2006 edition remains valid. Please note that workbooks since the Jan 2006 edition contain two audit reports. The correct one is displayed depending on the period entered.

Audit report in abbreviated accounts
The wording has been changed to comply with the example in APB Bulletin 2006/3 'The Special Auditors Report on Abbreviated Accounts in the United Kingdom'. However, the previous wording is still a valid option.

Statement of directors' responsibilities
The wording for this statement has been changed to comply with the example in APB Bulletin 2006/6 'Auditor's Reports on Financial Statements in the United Kingdom'. However, the earlier wording remains a valid option.
