Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 May 2018 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Critchlow and Associates Limited trading as Costigan King is a private company limited by share capital, incorporated |
in England and Wales, registration number 09982225. The address of the registered office is Studio Suite, Quantum |
House, 22-24 Red Lion Court, London, England, EC4A 3EB. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The financial statements are presented in Pound Sterling (£). |
Going Concern |
After reviewing the company's forecasts and projections, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company |
has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company continues to adopt |
the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and |
assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The |
estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be |
relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are |
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the |
revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future period. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents amounts chargeable to clients for professional services provided during the year, inclusive of direct |
expenses incurred on client assignments but excluding value added tax. Turnover is recognised when a right to |
consideration has been obtained through performance under each contract. Consideration accrues as contract activity |
progresses by reference to the value of work performed. |
Turnover is not recognised where the right to receive payments is contingent on events outside the control of the |
company. Unbilled revenue is included in debtors within accrued income. |
Rendering of services |
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in |
accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied: |
• the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; |
• it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the contract; |
• the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and |
• the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably. |

Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition |
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. |
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, |
using either a straight line or reducing balance method, as indicated below. |
Depreciation is provided on the following basis: |
- Computer equipment - 25 % on reducing balance. |
- Equipment - 25% on reducing balance. |
- Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment - 25% on reducing balance. |
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if |
appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date. |
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised |
in profit or loss. |
Work in progress |
Work in progress have been valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell. In respect of work |
in progress, cost includes a relevant proportion of overheads according to the stage of completion. |

Financial instruments |
Financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third |
parties, loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares. |
Debt instruments like loans and other accounts receivable and payable are initially measured at present value of the |
future payments and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method; Debt instruments that are |
payable or receivable within one year, typically trade payables or receivables, are measured, initially and subsequently, |
at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However if the |
arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred |
beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate or in case of an outright |
short-term loan not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially and subsequently, at the present |
value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. |
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for |
objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in |
profit or loss. |
For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an asset's |
carrying amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. If |
a financial asset has a variable interest rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective |
interest rate determined under the contract. |
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between an |
asset's carrying amount and the best estimate, which is an approximation, of the amount that the company would receive |
for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date. |
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is |
an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the |
asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
Share capital |
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary shares or |
options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. |
Distributions to equity holders |
Dividends are recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by |
the company's shareholders. These amounts are recognised in the statement of changes in equity. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the |
extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or |
substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet |
date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those |
in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been |
enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be |
recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |

Foreign currencies |
The functional currency of the company is Sterling (£). Transactions in currencies, other than functional currency of the |
company, are treated as transactions in foreign currencies. |
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. At each |
balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates |
prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on re-translation are included in the profit and loss. |
Translation differences on non-monetary financial assets, such as equities classified as available for sale, are included in |
other comprehensive income. |
Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme |
are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |

Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments |
that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk to changes in value. |
Debtors |
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at |
fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, |
less any impairment. |
Trade and other creditors |
Trade and other creditors are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are |
presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently |
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
Borrowings |
Borrowings are recognised initially at the transaction price (present value of cash payable to the bank, including |
transaction costs). Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost. Interest expense is recognised on the basis of |
the effective interest method and is included in finance costs. |
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has a right to defer settlement of liability for at least |
12 months after the reporting date. |
Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; it |
is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and the amount of the obligation can |
be estimated reliably. |
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is |
determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised. |
Contingent assets are not recognised. Contingent assets are disclosed in the financial statements when an inflow of |
economic benefits is probable. |
Impairment |
At each reporting date non-financial assets not carried at fair value, like goodwill and plant, property and equipment, |
are reviewed to determine whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication of |
possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any asset or group of related assets, which is the higher of value in use |
and the fair value less cost to sell, is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If the recoverable amount is |
lower, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised |
immediately in profit or loss. |
Inventories are also assessed for impairment at each reporting date. The carrying amount of each item of inventory, or |
group of similar items, is compared with its selling price less costs to complete and sell. If an item of inventory or group |
of similar items is impaired, its carrying amount is reduced to selling price less costs to complete and sell, and an |
impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
If an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or group of related assets is increased |
to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not to exceed the amount that would have been determined had no |
impairment loss been recognised for the asset or group of related assets in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment |
loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
