1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Polymer Optics 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.	STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

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.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements

The financial statements contain information about Polymer Optics Limited as an individual company

and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt

under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated

financial statements.

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

Tangible fixed assets are recognised at cost and subsequently measured under the historical cost

model being cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical

cost includes any direct expenditure incurred to bring the asset to its current location and condition

necessary for the asset to work as intended by management.

Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the statement of comprehensive income in the period

in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets by equal installments over

their estimated useful lives as follows:-

Plant and machinery etc

-

33.33% straight line and 20% straight line

Any gains and losses on the disposal of tangible fixed assets are recognised in the statement of

comprehensive income in the year that the disposal takes place.

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for

obsolete and slow moving items.

Financial instruments

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially

measured at transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective

interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the financial asset

in measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

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

Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at

the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of

exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at

the operating result.

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 the statement of comprehensive income in the period to

which they relate.

Going concern

Since the balance sheet date, there has been significant economic uncertainty as a result of the

Covid-19 virus outbreak both internationally and within the UK. The scale and duration of which

remains inherently uncertain. The management team are monitoring and reacting to the situation on a

daily basis.

The Company currently has a good level of liquidity which the director consider sufficient to see the

company through any potential implications. Based on these assessments the director has a

reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue for the foreseeable

future, as a result the going concern assumption continues to be adopted in the preparation of the

financial statements.
