Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

ALDRIDGE-BASED bodybuilder JCP has gone into administration. The company, which was subject to a management buy-out (MBO) 18 months ago, called in administrators RSM Robson Rhodes last week.

It had racked up "significant debts", according to Paul Sandom, a consultant appointed by Barings English Growth Fund, which financed the MBO.

JCP is still trading, says Sandom: -It has a strong order book and the administrators will be looking to sell the company as a going concern.

An advertisement appeared in the Financial Times on 12 July, offering the £15m turnover company for sale.
