    Any Help with the below?

    Despite initiatives to increase sales, the directors of Album made the decision to
    close one of the company’s warehouses during the year ended 31 December 20X1.
    The sale was completed before the year end, with Album recording a material loss on
    disposal. The directors wish to highlight to the shareholders that the ongoing
    business will now be more profitable. As such, they have presented the costs of the
    closure within ‘profits from discontinued operations’.

    The members of staff employed at this warehouse were initially relocated to other
    areas of the business. However, on 15 December 20X1, the directors decided that
    redundancies would need to be made and that the value of these is material. This
    was announced to the affected employees on 10 January 20X2.

    How should this be dealt with in accounts to December X1…

    Is it just simply a post balance sheet event note?

    Thanks

    Yes, the notification of the redundancies is a non-adjusting subsequent event and should be fully disclosed within the notes to the financial statements
