The director acknowledges his responsibilities for:

(a)	ensuring that the company keeps accounting records which comply with Sections 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2006 and

(b)

preparing financial statements which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company as at the end of each financial year and of its profit or loss for each financial year in accordance with the requirements of Sections 394 and 395 and which otherwise comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 relating to financial statements, so far as applicable to the company.

The financial statements have been prepared and delivered in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

All the members have consented to the preparation of an abridged Balance Sheet for the year ended 31 March 2019 in accordance with Section 444(2A) of the Companies Act 2006.

Mr R L F Hamilton - Director

1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Working Assets 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 as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Turnover

Turnover represents amounts invoiced to third parties, net of vat and trade discounts.

Rental income is recognised evenly over the term of the lease. Services are recognised as

they are provided.

Goodwill

Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2015, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of four years.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are

measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment

losses.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

Plant and machinery

-

20% on cost

Computer equipment

-

20% on cost

Freehold properties are valued at open market value at the year end. Any aggregate surplus

or deficit arising from changes in the market value is transferred to the revaluation reserve

or if the market value has fallen below the original cost the profit and loss reserve.

The properties are not held for consumption but for the purpose of trade, and the directors

consider that to depreciate them would not give a true and fair view. This is in accordance

with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2008), but is a

departure from the requirement of the Companies Act 2006, which requires all tangible fixed

assets to be depreciated.

Investments in associates

Investments in associate undertakings are recognised at cost.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit

arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

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

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the

balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their

estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estmated

useful lives or lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the

relevant period. The capital element of of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Investments

Fixed asset investments are stated at cost unless, in the opinion of the directors, their

recoverable amount is lower, in which case an appropriate adjustment is made.
