Answer
Upon assessing Nevellie Corp’s current financial statements, I do not endorse the idea of acquiring Neville Corp's debentures for several reasons. First, although the statements are current, they are not absolutely impartial. An external auditor would have given an unbiased position about Neville's prevailing financial situation. Mrs. Andy Neville cannot be depended on to authentically portray the company's finances because she possesses the company. Secondly, the characteristic of comparability is not apparent in the financial statements. There is no satisfactory information about the entity’s past financial performance. I cannot utilise it to compute previous ratios and net incomes or make projections about the company's going concern and prospective performance. Besides, material particulars have been overlooked in the financial statements. I cannot discern how the assets and inventories are valued and depreciated and the terms and circumstances of its existing loan liabilities. With this, I am not confident that the financial statements exemplify pertinent information to help me decide whether to buy the debentures. Moreover, the statements cannot be said to be faithfully portrayed due to material omissions that make them vague. Therefore, I would dissuade you from financing this entity.
