Fixed assets - Investments 2016 2015
£ £
Land and buildings - valuation 260,500 397,788
- cost 247,493 297,230
Due to the nature of properties held, for investment purposes, which are maintained to a high standard of repair, depreciation is not applied as the carrying values are not anticipated to diminish. The investments have been valued at open market value by the directors. The difference between valuation and original cost is transferred to the investment revaluation reserve. This accounting policy complies with Accounting Standards but is a departure from the Companies Act 2006, deemed necessary to give a true and fair view.
Foreign currencies
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. All differences are taken to the profit and loss account.
Pensions
The company did not operate a pension scheme during the year.
