The rule in plain words

What to do if your return fails it

1. 01Open the table below and find the cells the rule reads.
2. 02The check applies only when its first part holds in your return. When it does, the second part must hold too: fix the second part, or correct the first.
3. 03The Bank of England allows a small rounding difference, worked out from the decimals each value is reported with.
4. 04It runs only when your filing indicators mark C34.01.01 as reported.
5. 05This is a warning. It does not stop the return on its own, but your supervisor may ask you to explain it.

[v10638_m];[scope({t: C34.01.01.01, c:0030;0060;0090})];[if ({t: C34.01.01.01, r: 0040} != 0) then ({t: C34.01.01.01, r: 0050} = {t: C34.01.01.01, r: 0010} / {t: C34.01.01.01, r: 0040}) else true()]
