Rangefield Building Services Ltd - Abbreviated Accounts

1   Accounting Policies

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards.

Turnover

Turnover represents the invoiced value of goods and services supplied by the Company, net of value added tax and trade discounts.

Depreciation

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:

Stocks

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Deferred Taxation

Full provision is made for deferred taxation resulting from timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses in the accounts and their recognition for tax purposes.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates which are expected to apply in the periods when the timing differences will reverse, and discounted to reflect the time value of money using rates based on the post-tax yields to maturity that could be obtained at the balance sheet date on government bonds with similar maturity dates.
