Stock relates to residential properties and is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes all direct costs incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition, including directly attributable finance costs. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling price less further costs expected to be incurred to completion and disposal.

Cash at bank and in hand are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

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 balance sheet 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 asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

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 cost 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.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less.

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

The tax expense represents the tax currently payable.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight line basis over the lease term.

The company had no employees during the current or the previous year.

The banks have fixed and floating charges over the freehold properties included in stocks, all rental income and all the assets of the company.

The company had total guarantees and commitments of £10,260,000 (2018: £10,260,000) at the year end date.

Included in creditors falling due within one year are the following transactions:

During the year, the company incurred expenses of £66,000 (2018: £nil) on behalf of a partnership business in which some of the directors are partners. In the same period, the partnership business incurred expenses totalling £1,282 (2018: £28,432) on behalf of the company.

During the year, the partnership business charged loan interest of £3,990 (2018: £4,445) to the company.

The directors have considered the effect of the Covid-19 outbreak, that has been spreading throughout the world in early 2020, on the company's activities. The directors believe that the outbreak is unlikely to cause a significant disruption to the company's business as the contracts for sales of properties are expected to be exchanged as agreed.
