The financial statements were approved by the director on 30 June 2014 and were signed by:





Mr M L Grundon - Director


WEST LONDON COMPOSTING LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 04014874)

NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in
accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the
company qualifies as a small company.

Turnover
Turnover represents net invoice sales of compost and net amounts receivable for greenwaste
disposal, excluding value added tax.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates
calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected
useful life, as follows:

Plant and machinery - 5-10% straight line basis
Fixtures, fittings and equipment - 33% straight line basis
Motor vehicles - 20% straight line basis

Depreciation is not provided on buildings as it is the company's practice to maintain the asset
in a continued state of sound repair. Accordingly, the director considers the life of this asset is
such that any depreciation charge would be insignificant.

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for
obsolete and slow moving items.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance
sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful
lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the
lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the
relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight
line basis over the period of the lease.

Development grants
The development grants towards capital expenditure are released to the profit and loss
account over the expected useful life of the relevant fixed assets. The company did not receive
any additional development grants in the year ended 31 December 2012.
