1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Bentinck Close (St Johns Wood) 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.

Tangible fixed assets

Freehold property relates to the costs associated with the purchase of the Freehold Reversion. There is not anticipated to be any reduction in residual value below the original cost, and consequently no depreciation is provided.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

In accordance with Section 16 of Investment Properties of FRS 102, investment properties are measured at cost at initial recognition. The cost of a purchased investment property comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable expenditure such as legal, property transfer taxes and other transactions costs.

All investment properties are revalued annually. Any surplus or deficit on revaluation is transferred to the fair value revaluation reserve, except that deficits below original cost, which are expected to be permanent, are charged to the Profit and Loss account.

Investment property whose fair value can be measured reliably without undue costs or effect have been measured at fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognised in profit and loss.

Financial instruments

The Company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial liabilities like trade and other creditors, loans from third parties and loans from related parties. Basic financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Such instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, 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.
