Track Components Ltd

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' of FRS 102 to all of

its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the

contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there

is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or

to realised the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction

price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised costs using the effective interest

method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the

present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as

receivable within one year are not amortised.

Impairment of financial assets

Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance

sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is

estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an

impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the

impairment loss is a revaluation decrease.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are

settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership

to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has

transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual

arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets

of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans, 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. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one

year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of

business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or

less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction

price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or

cancelled.

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.

Current or deferred tax for the year is recognised in profit or loss, except when they related to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents are represented by cash in hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, and

other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition

and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
