2
Compliance with accounting standards
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102 Section 1A Small Entities. There were no material departures from that standard.
3
Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same accounts.
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets.
Presentation currency
The accounts are presented in £ sterling.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates and value added tax. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.
Goodwill
Goodwill was the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of the business in 2004 and was amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of five years. Legal and accountancy costs relating to the purchase of the business were split proportionately between goodwill and other assets acquired on acquisition. The costs allocated to goodwill were capitalised under goodwill. The costs relating to the other assets were not capitalised as the amounts were immaterial over each asset.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible assets are included at cost less depreciation and impairment. The depreciation method has been reviewed during the year and has been adjusted to more accurately reflect the expected life of the assets. Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives:
Plant & machinery
50% on cost
Motor vehicles
30% reducing balance
Fixtures & fittings
33% on cost
Inventories
Inventories have been valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.
Pension costs
The company operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. Contributions payable are recognised in the profit and loss account when due.

ACT Cleaning Services Limited Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax arises as a result of including items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods different from those in which they are included in the company's accounts. Deferred tax is provided in full on timing differences which result in an obligation to pay more (or less) tax at a future date, at the average tax rates that are expected to apply when the timing differences reverse, based on current tax rates and laws. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
