NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2014

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
While the company has made losses, it has been supported by finance from the bank. Accordingly, the accounts have been
prepared on a going concern basis and this assumes this support continues.

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 April 2008).

Turnover
Turnover represents net invoiced provision of services, excluding value added tax.

Goodwill
Goodwill of £110,000 has been paid in connection with the transfer of business from sole trader Brien Firmin in 2003. The
goodwill is being written off evenly over 20 years.

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

Land and buildings - over the life of the lease
Plant and machinery etc - 15% on reducing balance

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date
where transactions or events have occurred at that date that will result in an obligation to pay more, or a right to pay less or
to receive more tax.

Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing
differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
