NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2015


1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation
of certain assets.

Financial reporting standard number 1
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the company qualifies as a
small company.

Turnover
Turnover represents rent receivable from investment properties.

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

Plant and machinery - 25% on cost and 10% on cost

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

Investment properties
In accordance with Statement of Standard Accounting Practice No. 19, certain of the company's properties are
held for long-term investment and are included in the Balance Sheet at their open market values. The surplus or
deficit on revaluation of such properties are transferred to the investment property revaluation reserve.
Depreciation is not provided in respect of freehold investment properties.

This policy represents a departure from statutory accounting principles, which require depreciation to be
provided on all fixed assets. The directors consider that this policy is necessary in order that the financial
statements may give a true and fair view because current values and changes in current values are of prime
importance rather than the calculation of systematic annual depreciation. Depreciation is only one of many
factors reflected in the valuation and the amount which might otherwise have been shown cannot be separately
identified or quantified.
