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.
The previous reporting period was a short period of 10 months and therefore the financial statements are not entirely comparable for this reason.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organisation (“WHO”) declared a pandemic in relation to Coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”), see note 8. As a result, Middlesex Global Academy Limited was unable to run any cricket camps during the year ended 31 December 2020. However, the Company has no ongoing financial commitments or costs and as a result has been able to continue on a dormant basis. In 2021, with the lifting of restrictions, the Company has resumed trading.
Middlesex Global Academy Limited has received written confirmation from its parent company, Middlesex County Cricket Club Limited, that it will continue to provide financial support for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the turnover can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before turnover is recognised:
Rendering of services
Turnover from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
∙the amount of turnover can be measured reliably;
∙it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the contract;
∙the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
∙the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably.
