During the year the company has acted as agent for the lessees of the property at Finchley Court, Ballards Lane, London. The funds in relation to the maintenance of the property are held in trust. As at 31 March 2016 the cash balance held on behalf of the lessees amounted to £137,444.
The company therefore has no income or expenditure in its own right in relation to the maintenance of the common parts of the property held in accordance with the governing leases. Income and expenditure arising from these transactions is shown in separate service charge accounts for the property that do not form part of the annual accounts of the company and are not filed at Companies House. The accounts can be obtained from Finchley Court Freeholders Limited.

Prior year adjustment
It was resolved that the service charge assets and associated liabilities in relation to the maintenance of the property governed by the lease should be held in trust and therefore reported separately from the statutory accounts.
On this basis, a prior year adjustment has been made to remove the amounts which relate to the service charge fund as follows:
- Current assets totalling £281,558 have been reduced by £267,046 to give a brought forward balance at 1 April 2015 of £14,512;
- Creditors due within one year amounting to £22,234 have been transferred to give a balance as at 1 April 2015 of £nil;
- Both the profit and loss reserves and the roofing fund have been reduced to £nil as at 1 April 2015 as reserves belonging to the service charge account.

Control
None of the shareholders hold more than 10% in the company and therefore have no dominance or significant influence. There is therefore no controlling party.
7
Related party relationships and transactions
Included in other debtors is an amount of £14,512 owing by the service charge fund.
