NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2016
1.Accounting Policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
|
|
The full financial statements, from which these abbreviated accounts have been extracted, have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of goods and services supplied during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax and trade discounts, by reference to date of despatch.
|
|
|
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
|
|
|
|
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixtures, fittings & equipment
|
|
|
|
|
No depreciation is provided on freehold land.
No depreciation is provided for on other freehold properties, since the directors consider any depreciation would be insignificant. Any permanent diminution in the value of such properties is charged to the profit and loss account.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Investments held as fixed assets are shown at cost less provision for impairment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Investment properties are included in the Balance Sheet at their open market value in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015) and are not depreciated. This treatment is contrary to the Companies Act 2006 which states that fixed assets should be depreciated but is, in the opinion of the directors, necessary in order to give a true and fair view of the financial position of the company.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2016
1.Accounting Policies (continued)
|
|
|
|
|
Rentals under operating leases are charged to the Profit and Loss Account on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight line basis over the period until the date the rent is expected to be adjusted to the prevailing market rate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Full provision is made for deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from all timing differences between the recognition of gains and losses in the financial statements and recognition in the tax computation.
|
|
|
Deferred tax is not provided on timing differences arising from the revaluation of fixed assets in the financial statements.
|
|
|
A net deferred tax asset is recognised only if it can be regarded as more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates expected to be effective at the time the timing differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company. The contributions payable are charged to the profit and loss account.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The charge for taxation is based on the result for the period. The charge also takes into account taxation deferred because of timing differences between the treatment of certain items for accounting and taxation purposes. Provision is made for deferred taxation on all timing differences. The rate of tax used is that which is expected to be applied when the liability is expected to crystallise, based on tax rates that have been enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised if their recovery is sufficiently certain.
