Man: Hi, Tom here. Could I speak with Bill?
男：你好，我是汤姆，能让比尔接电话么？
Woman: Sorry, he's out. Can I take a message?
女：对不起，他外出了。要留言么？
Man: Thanks. It's about some queries Bill had about the balance sheet I prepared.
男：谢谢。比尔对我准备的资产负债表提了些问题。
Woman: Which balance sheet exactly? The one for the last financial year?
女：具体是哪个资产负债表呢？是去年的财务的么？
Man: Actually, it was the one for the last quarter.
男：其实是上个季度的。
Woman: OK, got that.
女：好的，记下了。
Man: There were several things Bill wanted to check. Firstly, he asked about the liabilities figures.
男：比尔想确认几件事。首先他问了负债数值。
He thought the figures in column A might be for current liabilities, but in fact those figures indicate the long-term ones.
他认为A列的数字可能是现在的负债，但事实上，那些数字代表长期负债。
Woman: OK, I've got that. What next?
女：好的。我记下了。下一个呢？
Man: The assets figures. He wondered exactly what they cover. Actually, I've put the current assets there,
男：资产数值。他想知道这些数字具体涵盖哪些。其实，我已经将流动资产写在那了，
but I've still got to work out the fixed assets and the intangible assets before I include them.
但是我还是算出了将它们涵盖在一起之前的固定资产以及无形资产。
Woman: Thanks. Anything else?
女：谢谢。还有其他的么？
Man: One last thing. Also about assets. Bill wasn't sure what the figures in brackets in section four refer to.
男：最后一件事，也是关于资产的。比尔不确定第四部分括号中的数字代表什么。
He thought they might represent average figures for the last two years or something like that. In fact, they show losses over that period.
他认为它们可能代表过去两年的平均数之类的。事实上，它们表示的是那段时期的损失。
Woman: Thanks. I'll pass all that on.
女：谢谢。我会将这些告诉他的。
