| Notes to the Abbreviated Accounts |
| for the year ended 30 April 2015 |
|
| 1 |
Accounting policies |
|
|
Basis of preparation |
|
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015). |
|
|
Turnover |
|
Turnover represents the value, net of value added tax and discounts, of goods provided to customers and work carried out in respect of services provided to customers. |
|
|
Website development |
|
Costs are capitalised and amortised over two years. |
|
|
Depreciation |
|
Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives. |
|
|
Plant and machinery |
25% straight line |
|
Motor vehicles |
25% straight line |
|
|
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 taxation is calculated on an un-discounted basis at the tax rates which are expected to apply in the periods when the timing differences will reverse. |
|
|
Income recognition |
|
Income from annual memberships and subscriptions is released to the profit and loss account on an incremental basis to match the period of the respective membership or subscription. Accordingly such items invoiced in advance are held as deferred income in the balance sheet. Conference fees and sponsorship funds for events in the future are similarly deferred until the event has occurred. |
|
|
Pensions |
|
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme. |
