Creditors/ trade payable is payment yet to be made for goods already received, if this continues to rise then it will effect the business profit and less stock will have to be ordered so repayments can be made. Bank overdrafts also continued to rise and in the long-term the business will be paying greater interest, which will again eat into the profit.

Finally I can see that due to the above issues and other issues the net current assets/ working capital has decreased so therefore the business is less value then it was a year ago. If the business is worth £1 million now, this could soon decrease within another year.

New Hope Housing likely had strengths related to their employee development program, their effectiveness in housing people in need, and their niche for ensuring individuals who would typically be rejected housing. Some of their weaknesses likely related to their secured funding and current dependence on government funding. Some of their opportunities relate to finding solutions for permanent housing, as this is currently a struggle for the people they serve.

Increase in current liabilities Substantial increase in current liabilities weakened the company’s liquidity position. Its current liabilities were US$2,063.94 million at the end of FY2010, a 48.09% increase compared to the previous year. However, its current assets recorded a marginal increase of 25.07% - from US$1,770.02 million at the end of FY2009 to US$2,213.72 million at the end of FY2010.

largest percentage changes on Lockheed Martin’s balance sheet is the 16% vertical increase in ‘Other Liabilities’ (Other Non-Current Liabilities). This portion of the balance sheet contains payable liabilities in the future such as environmental cleanups and proceedings ($1.0B recorded in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act), expected pension payments, and deferred compensation plans. As obligations listed in this account are normally contractual or mandatory, it will be hard for the company to reduce the amount. What the company can instead do is to transfer some amount under prepaid expenses, thereby erasing some liabilities while fulfilling some pension and compensation obligations.

The change challenge for HDB and Tan included improvement to the overall operations of the organization including work processes and systems. “The goal of the public outreach was to gain greater public buy-in and support while improving focus groups, particularly grassroots organization” (Jick & Pieperl, 2011, p. 432). Thus, the Estate Administration and Property Department was expected to manage majority of the operations including housing policies, pricing, and sales to name a few. Challenges faced were work process and systems that needed modifications through clear operational strategies.

When a company goes bankrupt, intangible assets depreciate at a much faster rate than regular assets; therefore, most pharmaceutical companies already tend to avoid debt.
