Dougherty & Allen Limited
Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 31 March 2021
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.
During 2021 the business has had very limited trading due to the restrictions imposed by way of social distancing due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The business has entered into a Voluntary Arrangement with its creditors during this financial year. With the anticipated cash flows and with continued financial support from the Directors in the form of a share allotment during the year , they consider it appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a
going concern basis.
Turnover
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for sale of services in
the ordinary nature of the business and excludes value added tax. Revenue from services is recognised
when the service is provided and the revenue can be measured reliably.
Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified by directors as basic or advanced following the conditions on FRS 102 Section 11. Basic financial instruments are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction cost) and subsequently recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The company does not have any advanced financial instruments.
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.
Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets held under finance leases and hire purchase contracts, where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset have passed to the company, are capitalised in the balance sheet and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. The corresponding lease or hire purchase obligation is treated in the balance sheet as a liability.
The finance element of the rental obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the period of the lease and represents a constant proportion of the balance of capital repayments outstanding.
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's
