(i)Gordon Brown Co’s Profit before tax was Rs7 million and a statement of financial position total of Rs23 million. Gordon Brown owns a number of its retail premises, which it revalues annually. This year several of its shops rose sharply in value due to inflated property prices in their locality.

(ii)Bentley Ltd's profit before tax was Rs 200 million. Bentley’s computerized wages program is backed up daily.
