NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31st March 2017

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Whalebone Investment Company 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 as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Changes in accounting policies
The principle accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and
have also been consistently applied within the same accounts following the transition to FRS 102 Section 1A
small entities on 1st April 2015.

Turnover
Turnover represents the fair value of rental income receivable, excluding value added tax, once the income and
related costs incurred can be reliably measured, and it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
company.

Investment properties
Investment properties are stated at fair value and gains/losses are recognised in the Income Statement. Deferred
tax is provided on these gains/losses at the corporation tax rates and applicable allowances expected to apply
when the property is sold.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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 statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the
statement of financial position 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.

Rental income
The company receives rental income under operating leases and other agreements. The income is recognised on a
straight line basis over the lease term or period of agreement. The fair value of assets used to generate this
income is disclosed in the note to fixed asset investments. The managing agents monitor and control the general
repairs and maintenance of properties to ensure applicable contractual obligations are fulfilled.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS
