Mr R P Marriott - Director


EASTERN TELEPHONES LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 05207395)

NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 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 fair value of services provided during the year. Turnover is recognised as contract
activity progresses and the right to consideration is earned. Fair value reflects the amount expected to be
recoverable from clients. Turnover excludes value added tax.

Turnover not billed to customers is included in other debtors. Invoices raised in excess of the fair value of work
completed are included within other creditors.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2004, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of twenty years.

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

Plant and machinery - 20% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 20% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 20% 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
The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year and takes into account taxation deferred because of
timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. In accordance
with Financial Reporting Standard 19, provision is made for deferred tax in respect of all timing differences that
have been originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is
more likely than not that the asset will be recovered. Deferred tax is measured using rates that have been
enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax balances are not discounted.

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 useful lives. Those held under finance
leases are depreciated over their estimated useful 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.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the
period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension
scheme are charged to the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

Corrective work provision
This provision is based on the projected costs of corrective work carried out under warranty obligations in
respect of work completed and invoiced by the year end.

Investments
Investments held as fixed assets are stated at cost less provision for any permanent diminution in value.
