1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Sero Consulting Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

Turnover

Turnover comprises the invoiced value, under contract, of consulting services in relation to education, skills and economic development, excluding value added tax. Turnover is recognised in accordance with the contracts, with contracts ongoing over the year end treated in accordance with the accounting policy set out under the heading "work in progress".

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings

-

33% on cost

Computer equipment

-

33% on cost

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

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

Work in progress

Income on work in progress contracts is recognised by reference to the valuation of the time spent on each contract at the year end.

Profit on work in progress contracts is recognised when the outcome of the contracts can be assessed with reasonable certainty, and is that amount which is estimated to reflect fairly the profit arising up to the year end. Profit on work in progress contracts is reflected in the profit and loss account as the difference between the reported turnover, and the related costs.

Debtors and creditors due within one year

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate, which are due within one year, are stated at the transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within administrative expenses.

Impairment

At each balance sheet date, assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that any of the individual assets have suffered an impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the assets cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

3.	EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS
