Revenue from contracts for the provision of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion when the stage of completion, costs incurred and costs to complete can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion is calculated by comparing costs incurred, mainly in relation to contractual hourly labour rates and materials, as a proportion of total costs. Where the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable.

At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. A financial instrument is a contract giving rise to a financial asset (such as trade and other debtors, cash and bank balances) or a financial liability (such as trade and other creditors, bank and other loans, hire purchase and lease creditors) or an equity instrument (such as ordinary or preference shares). Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All the company's financial instruments are basic financial instruments and are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Amortised cost : the original transaction value, less amounts settled, less any adjustment for impairment. Effective interest method : where a financial instrument falls due more than 12 months after the balance sheet date and is subject to a rate of interest which is below a market rate, the original transaction value is discounted using a market rate of interest to give the net present value of future cash flows.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

The company owns one freehold residential property which it lets to third parties. Mr S Berry, one of the directors of the company has estimated the fair value of this property.

FRS 102 requires that deferred taxation is provided on all revalued assets.

Under FRS102 retained earnings and gains on revaluation may be combined into one figure. However under Companies Act legislation retained earnings are distributable reserves while unrealised gains on revaluation are not. Therefore to assist in ensuring the financial statements show a true and fair view the company has chosen to maintain a separate non distributable reserve.
