1. Accounting policies

Basis of measurement and preparation of accounts

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards, including the Financial Reporting Standard for smaller entities effective April 2008 and with the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis and are presented in Sterling (£).

Turnover policy

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the rendering of services and is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract.

Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated to write down the cost less estimated residual value of all tangible fixed assets over their expected useful lives, using the straight-line method. The rate used is 25%.

Other accounting policies

Debtors 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. Creditors Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Taxation Current tax is recognised for the amount of income tax payable in respect of the taxable profit for the current or past reporting periods using the tax rates and laws that that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is calculated using the tax rates and laws that that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference and is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date, except as otherwise indicated. Deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. If and when all conditions for retaining tax allowances for the cost of a fixed asset have been met, the deferred tax is reversed. Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits and contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. The company operates stakeholder defined contribution pension schemes for the benefit of the employees and directors. The assets of the pension schemes are administered by an independent pensions provider.
