        <ExplanationTxt>After speaking with our bookkeeper it is clear that some of the information on our Profit and Loss from 2023 that I used for the original 990-EZ was incorrect. There will be amendments to both part I and II. Lines 5a 5b 5c will be moved to lines 7a 7b 7c. Line 14 for our Rent will be adjusted because we had counted one too many rent payments. We need to enter an amount into line 20 because inventory wasn't counted originally. Line 21 22B 24B 25B and 27B will all be updated.</ExplanationTxt>
