Notes to the Abbreviated Accounts |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 26 MARCH 2016 |
1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Accounting convention |
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the |
Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015). |
As at 26 March 2016, the company had net current liabilities of £35,665 (2015 - £94,560). This is due to |
instalments of loan and goodwill repayments falling over the 12 month period following the balance sheet |
date. The directors are satisfied that future revenues will be more than adequate to cover these liabilities and |
that the company will continue to meet all of its liabilities as they fall due. As a result, the financial statements |
have been prepared on the going concern basis and contain no adjustments that would be necessary if this was |
not the case. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents amounts invoiced, net of value added tax, in respect of the provision of services to clients, |
commissions and other trading income, plus the value, recognised by reference to the stage of completion, of |
other work undertaken in the period but not invoiced at the period end. Revenue not billed to clients is |
included in debtors as accrued income. |
Goodwill |
Purchased goodwill arising on the acquisition of integrated businesses is capitalised, classified as an asset on |
the Balance Sheet and amortised over its estimated useful economic life of 7 years. |
Goodwill is reviewed for impairment at the end of the first financial year following each acquisition and |
subsequently as and when necessary if circumstances emerge that indicate the carrying value may not be |
recoverable. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Equipment | - |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the |
balance sheet date where transactions or events have occurred at that date that will result in an obligation to |
pay more, or a right to pay less or to receive more, tax. |
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that the directors consider that it is more likely than not |
that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences |
can be deducted. |
Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in |
which timing differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance |
sheet date. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the |
period of the lease. |
Investments |
Investments are held at initial cost, less any impairment in value. |
