22/06/17 Totally new Front End Interface.
Note  Chrome loads pages from 'cache', your computers memory.
Hence when websites are updated Chrome will continue to load the "old" page stored in cache not the up to date one.
The old Frames technology was making it impossible to reload the pages located within the Frames.
Right click & reload should ensure the current version from now on, but a reload is still needed to see if the page has been updated.

Blank(ish) introduction/workings sheet at        egs.ie/accountancy/16/h/6sblank.pdf
24/01/17 "Calculating Formulas"  on the Ratios page has had 2 major modifications.
Firstly, if the user inputs an email address the results are emailed to that address.
This function requires that an email address must be entered, so a default   nobody@egs.ie is provided for those who do not wish to use this.
Secondly,  at the request of my 5th year class who were sick of typing 000 after everything, figures are no longer entered in full.
Rather 400,000 is now entered as 400       15,500  as  15.5 etc
However the exception is the Part A formulas of Opening Stock, Cash Purchases & Sales where figures still need to be entered in full or else they will be incorrect.  I.E., if Sales should be 500,000 then 500 would be incorrect.
In the Cash Budgeting page I've uploaded a practice system for working out the Sales & Purchases figures found in part A.
I can't fit an entire question in (yet), but the Sales & Purchases figures are important figures to get right and need to be practiced.
