FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015

Accounting policies
1.1
Accounting convention

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention modified to include the revaluation of freehold land and buildings and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015).

1.2
Compliance with accounting standards
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), which have been applied consistently (except as otherwise stated).
1.3
Turnover
Turnover represents amounts receivable for rent.
1.4
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
The investment property was revalued at 31 December 2004 and the surplus was transferred to a revaluation reserve.  No depreciation is charged in respect of freehold investment properties.

The Directors consider that this accounting policy results in the accounts giving a true and fair view.  Depreciation is only one of many factors reflected in the annual valuation and the amount which might otherwise have been shown cannot be separately identified or quantified.
Land and buildings Freehold
Not depreciated
1.5
Deferred taxation

The company's investment property was formally revalued at 31 December 2004. If the property were disposed of at the value shown in the financial statements, then a potential corporation tax liability would exist at the balance sheet date on the increase in the value over the original cost. However, no such provision has been made in the financial statements as the directors do not intend to dispose of the property in the foreseeable future.
