It's what they're good at. If they have purchased assets then it won't have affected profits. Here have a read. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTG_03 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Quick mention of the rolling out of baby boxes on reporting Scotland followed by a substantial piece about a possibly sexist joke made by Alex salmond. This included stopping people in the street and asking them if they thought it was sexist/offensive.It's getting tedious now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNPBAD, and Monica Lennon (Scottish Labour), wants them to deal with the sanitary products problem.... Oh, wait...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need, I know the difference between an expense and an asset, between a balance sheet and a P & L and how share price appreciation for shares priced in USD affect the value of share awards for a company reporting in GBP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting that Amazon's profits were not affected by the increased provision for share awards (which are priced in dollars) and the increase in Amazon's share price over the period covered by the accounts? You do know what "fair value" actually means? Also, If you check Calmac's accounts for 2016 you will see that both turnover and losses increased. Probably some Barnett wheeze by the Scottish Government. I mean how is it even possible???? Just so you know, that last question was rhetorical because I do know how it happens. PM me if you want an explanation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just haven't got the wits and experience to put together a coherent intelligent post that actually addresses the subject at hand and you actually trawled the entire internet for another instance of the same thing happening except nothing like the same scale and in a company that resembles Amazon in no way whatsoever. It's dispiriting that you think this in some way adds to the conversation, frankly. If you want to defend Amazon, a company that has systematically exploited labour laws and avoided corporation tax across the globe for years, then be my guest. I think you have to ask yourself why your knee-jerk reaction is to defend such a company and what it says about you, frankly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sexism isn't as relevant as the inappropriateness of making jokes about shagging a person he works with in a public forum. It was a twatish thing to do and quite honestly it is indefensible.

You have made a pretty strong accusation in terms which suggested you had proof of wrongdoing but now we hear you are GUESSING? Again, I have made no accusations at all, I linked to an article.

I told my Chartered Accountant friend that if he wants to investigate a company's finances that he should ignore the Balance sheet, P&L and Cash Flow statements because, according to you, they are not relevant. He responded, and I quote directly, "Are you fucking kidding me?" Again, if you have to lie to support your argument then you don't have an argument. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
