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

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
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).

Turnover
Turnover represents the total amount receivable by the company for goods supplied and services provided,
excluding value added tax and trade discounts.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2006, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Improvements to property - 10% on reducing balance
Plant & machinery - 15% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow
moving items.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance
sheet date.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the
balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at
the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held
under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated lives. Those held under finance leases are
depreciated over their useful estimated lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the relevant period. The
capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

The rental costs in respect of operating leases are charged as an expense in the profit and loss account.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for the benefit of the staff.

Debt factoring
The company factors its sales invoices and due to the nature of the factoring contract shows its gross debts as a
current asset and its liability to the factoring agent as a current liability. Expenses and interest charged by the
factoring agent are charged to the profit and loss account.
