Ok, I was wrong. Now after the break they will have the REAL interview with Yorktons Scott Patterson. Hopefully I'll be able to grab the caption from that interview properly...

We are not talking about something a business gave as an add on to a sale .We are talking about buying goods for $100 (cost of sales ) selling it for $90.00 and putting that $10.00 loss into advertising and promotions . That has an effect of increasing gross margins when in fact there are none . GAAP I wonder ???

Cameron, you sound like an expert on accounting questions and I would like to ask you whether or not you believe the gross profit reality with BIDS is a 'real problem' or something not to worry about? DOn't accountants worry if there is no bottom line? Please let me know.

<<The TSE and SEC have already reviewed these statements and are already aware of generally accepted accounting procedures.. usually referred to a GAAPs.
