NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2014

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance
with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

Turnover
Turnover comprises the value of goods and services supplied by the company, net of Value Added
Tax.

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 - 25% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 25% on reducing balance

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for
obsolete and slow moving items.

Deferred tax
No provision has been made for deferred taxation as no timing differences are expected between the
recognition of gains and losses in the financial statements and their recognition for corporation tax
purposes.

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 profit and loss account in the period to which they
relate.

Freehold property
No depreciation or amortisation is provided in respect of freehold investment properties. The
requirement of the Companies Act 1985 is to depreciate all properties, but that requirement conflicts
with the generally accepted accounting principle set out in the FRSSE. The directors believe that as
these properties are not held for consumption but investment, to depreciate them would not give a true
and fair view, and that it is necessary to adopt the FRSSE in order to give a true and fair view.
