NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2016

1.ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1
BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The full financial statements, from which these abbreviated accounts have been extracted, have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of investment property and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015).

1.2
TURNOVER

Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of rental income, exclusive of Value Added Tax and trade discounts. 

1.3
INTANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS AND AMORTISATION

Goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities. It is amortised to the profit and loss account over its estimated economic life.

1.4
INVESTMENTS

Investments held as fixed assets are shown at cost less provision for impairment.

1.5
INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Investment properties are included in the balance sheet at their open market value in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015) and are not depreciated. This treatment is contrary to the Companies Act 2006 which states that fixed assets should be depreciated but is, in the opinion of the directors, necessary in order to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the company.
