BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006 and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice "Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships".
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the LLP's accounting policies.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The global health crisis caused by COVID-19 has had a significant impact on all businesses. The members have assessed the potential impact of this uncertain situation on the LLP. The LLP is an property investment LLP therefore is not directly affected by the crisis but may be impacted by a downfall in future property markets. Accordingly the members continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.
Turnover comprises the recognition of rental and service charge income during the year exclusive of Value Added Tax. The income is measured as the fair value of the consideration recieved or receivable.
Properties are revalued to their fair value at the reporting date by professional valuers. The valuation is based on the assumptions and judgements which are impacted by a variety of factors including market and other economic conditions. Due to the pandemic, the valuers felt they could attach less weight to previous market evidence for comparison purposes, to inform opinions of value. Due to the unprecedented circumstances, the valuation is reported on the basis of ‘material valuation uncertainty’ as per VPS 3 and VPGA 10 of the RICS Red Book Global. A higher degree of caution is therefore attached to the valuations provided and the valuers recommended the valuations are kept under frequent review. No depreciation is provided. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
