1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Read Property Associates Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The

company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future

periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation include uncertainties at the

reporting date, which may have a risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and

liabilities within the next financial periods, are discussed below.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates,

value added tax and other sales taxes.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings

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.

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 are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with bank,

other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other

Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when the company becomes

party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is

a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to

realise the net asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction

price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised costs using the effective interest method

unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value

of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one

year are not amortised.

Other financial assets

Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint

ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are subsequently

carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that investments in equity

instruments that are not publically traded and whose fair values cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost

less impairment.

Employee benefits

The costs of the short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are

required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets. The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is

recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received. Termination benefits are recognised

immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an

employee or to provide termination benefits.

Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of

the company.
