    The law relating to the qualification criteria for small companies to claim exemption from audit changed on 1 January, 2016

    With effect from that date, the requirements are now:

    For accounting periods beginning on or after that date to qualify for audit exemption, a company must qualify as small, in relation to that financial year. Qualification involves meeting any two of the following:

    annual turnover must be not more than £10.2 million (£6.5 million)

    the balance sheet total must be not more than £5.1 million (£3.26 million)

    the average number of employees must be not more than 50 (50)

    Even though a small company might meet these criteria, it must still have its financial statements audited if a member or members holding at least 10% of the nominal value of issued share capital or holding 10% of any class of shares demands it; or – in the case of a company limited by guarantee – 10% of its members in number

    (The figures in brackets are the thresholds for companies with accounting periods that commenced prior to 1 January, 2016)

    OK?

    Hmm – are you sure that the given solution is ‘c’?

    The correct answer is ‘d’
