1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Landau Investments (1978) 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.

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 rents receivable.

Investments in associates

Investments in associate undertakings are recognised at cost.

Investment properties

Investment properties are initially measured at acquisition cost. Subsequently investment properties whose fair values can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort on an ongoing basis are measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising from the changes in fair value are included in the profit and loss account in the period in which they arise.

Financial instruments

The company only enters into basic financial instruments that result in the recognition of financial assets or liabilities like trade debtors, other debtors, trade creditors and other creditors, loans from banks or other third parties and loans to/from related parties.

Debt instruments like bank loans are initially measured at present value of future payments and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments which are payable or receivable within one year such as trade debtors or trade creditors are measured, initially and subsequently at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received.

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit & loss account.

Taxation

Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, 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.

3.	EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 4 (2019 - 4 ) .
