Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 May 2017

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

B A Shorthouse Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales.
The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company
Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

These financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2017 are the first financial statements that
comply with FRS102 Section 1A small entities. The date of transition is 1 June 2015.

The transition to FRS102 Section 1A small entities has not resulted in any changes in accounting
policies to those used previously.

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out
below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied
within the same accounts.

Turnover
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account is the amount receivable for the provision of goods
and services falling within the Company's activities, net of Value Added Tax, rebates and trade
discounts. Turnover from the provision of goods and services is recognised in the accounting period in
which the Company obtains the right to consideration in exchange for its performance and when the
amounts to be recognised are fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Plant and machinery - 25% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 20% 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.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss
Account, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or
directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued
for the Year Ended 31 May 2017

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

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods
different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured
using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are
expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable
that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

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 profit or loss over the relevant period. The
capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

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.
