Ciri and Yennifer are both Directors of an online company selling custom jewellery.
SIlvershop Ltd. has been trading at a loss for 6 months and is relying on a floating
charge to keep in business. Ciri has had a meeting with their accountant who has
advised her that it is unlikely that the business can continue with their current income
as the business is already £100,000 in debt with very little revenue. Despite this
warning Ciri and Yennifer continue to take orders and payment for custom jewellery.
6 months later Silvershop Ltd. goes into liquidation. Oddly enough in the last six
months Ciri has purchased a new Tesla and Yennifer has just put a 20% down
payment on a snazzy £1,000,000 flat. SIlvershop Ltd. has over £300,000 of
outstanding debts and very little assets to speak of.
