1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

David Beckman & Co 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 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. There were no material departures from the standard.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the modification to a fair value basis if required.

Significant judgements and estimates

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires management to exercise judgement in applying the company accounting policies and the use of certain critical

accounting estimates.

The items in the financial statements where these judgement and estimates have been made include:

Judgements

- The method of arriving at the amounts recoverable under contracts.

Estimates

- The useful life of fixed assets.

Changes in accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and have also been consistently applied within the same accounts.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding value added tax and discounts.

The majority of the turnover is invoiced on a straight line basis over the period of the annual contract. Other invoicing is on a time cost basis.

Goodwill

Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2003, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of twenty years.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is calculated to write down the costs less estimated residual value of all tangible fixed assets over their expected useful lives, using the straight-line method.

The rates applicable are:-

- Plant and machinery - 20%

- Fixtures and fittings -15%

- Computer equipment -25%

- Motor vehicles -20%

Impairment of Assets

At each reporting date, fixed assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If estimated recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the amount that would have been determined had no impairment been recognised for the asset in prior years.

All impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Financial instruments

The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially recognised at transaction price less any impairment.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, are initially recognised at transaction price less any impairment.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. 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.

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.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a UK statutory workplace pension scheme. It also makes contributions to certain employees' personal pension schemes. All contributions are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Operating leases

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are

received.
