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.
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.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets.
The accounts are presented in £ sterling.
Tangible assets are included at cost or valuation less depreciation and impairment.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold reversions - Nil
No depreciation has been charged in respect of the freehold reversion as the directors believe that the value of the reversion is not less than the average at which it is stated in the company's accounts.
The company was formed by the residents of Viceroy Close to purchase the freehold thereof with the purposes of managing the freehold and granting long leaseholds (125 years) to residents in order to protect the the capital value and saleability of their individual flats. The excess of proceeds over the valuation attributable to each unextended lease is credited to the profit and loss account.
Investment property is included at market fair value. Gains are recognised in the income statement. Deferred taxation is provided on these gains at the rate expected to apply when the property is sold.
Investments in shares are included at fair value.
Turnover represents ground rents receivable from the residential lessees and is derived from ordinary activities
Of the profit and loss reserves shown in the Balance Sheet date of £842,436, an amount of £470,378 is non-distributable as it relates to unrealised gains.

Tangible fixed assets
Land & buildings
The company owns the freehold reversion of the Viceroy Close Estate (subject to a lease thereof) consisting of approximately 8 acres of land together with 162 flats, caretaker's house, 87 garages and workshops situated at Viceroy Close, Bristol Road, Birmingham, which it acquired in 1988.
The freehold reversion relating to 45 residential flats was valued by the directors at 30 June 1997 at £500,000.
The company also acquired the lease on 148 Viceroy Close and this property is now shown as investment property at a fair value of £200,000 (2020 - £200,000). As a consequence the cost of the lease acquisition, together with the revalued amount of the freehold reversion associated to that property was transferred from tangible fixed assets.
The directors have decided not to revalue the freehold reversion and therefore the value shown on the Balance Sheet is still based upon the fair value at transition. The directors are satisfied that the aggregate value of the freehold reversion is not less than the aggregate amount at which it is stated in the company's accounts and as a result no depreciation has been charged. However, the fair value may be in excess of the amount recorded in the Balance Sheet and therefore the Financial Statements may not show a true and fair view of the company as at the Balance Sheet date.
