Doug:

The company, after amalgamation, will essentially still be operating as two separate units (one company operates out of head office and the other is offsite) with two different people minding the separate AP & AR. We still want to have a certain amount of autonomy between the two units...at least for now, perhaps we will find that it is unnecessary to run two subledgers but for the time-being we feel it's better for us to keep things separate. The amalgamation doesn't happen until September 30th but we're just trying to be prepared well ahead of time.
