Pre-arranged funeral plans

Trust plans

The Company markets and sells pre-arranged funeral plans, monies received from selling funeral plans being

held and controlled by an independent pre-arranged funeral plans trust ('the Trust'). The responsibilities for the

ultimate performance of funerals is allocated to funeral directors, who are selected by the beneficiary of the plan.

The Company receives monies from the Trust in respect of the following transactions:

- A marketing and administration fee in respect of each plan sold. The marketing element is only refundable in

the event that the plan is subsequently cancelled. A provision is made for cancellations based on historical

experiences, where material, to cover the estimated marketing element refundable in the Trust. Marketing and

administration fees are included in Company revenue when the plan is sold less the provision for refunds arising

on cancellation, and

- Further contributions are also received from the Trust in return for the provision of general ongoing

administrative services supplied to the Trust. These contributions are included in Company revenue for the

period to which they relate.

All costs in respect of the marketing and administration of the pre-arranged funeral plans are expensed in the

Company income statements as incurred.

From time to time, the Company may receive monies from the Trust, in line with the Trust's deed, which have

been assessed by the trustees as not required to ensure the Trust has sufficient assets to meet its future liabilities

in respect of current members ('Recoveries'). All Recoveries are recognised as other operating income in the

period to which the trustees approve payment.

Turnover

Turnover represents the value of marketing and administration services provided to the Trust during the year,

excluding value added tax.

Going concern

going concern is dependant upon the continued support from the directors, Mr M Livesey and Mr C Livesey.
