NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2016
1. Accounting policies
(a) Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015). Any changes in accounting policy resulting from the implementation of new accounting standards, which have a material effect on the accounts, are disclosed separately within the relevant note to the accounts.
(b) Turnover
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account represents amounts earned during the year, recognised at the date of performing the work. In respect of long-term contracts and contracts for on-going services, turnover represents the value of work done in the year, including an estimate of amounts not invoiced, included as part of the debtors figure in the accounts.
(c) Amortisation
Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Goodwill-5% straight line basis
(d) Fixed assets
All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost.
(e) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Equipment-20% straight line basis
(f) Operating lease agreements
Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
(g) Pension costs
The company contributes to a group personal pension scheme for the employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company. The company also makes contributions to the personal pension schemes of the directors. The annual contributions paid are charged to the profit and loss account.
(h) Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
