Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 July 2017

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Longden Walker and Renney (Solicitors) 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.

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis,which assumes that the company will
continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, which the directors consider appropriate.

Reconciliation with previous generally accepted accounting practice
These financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2017 are the first financial statements that comply with
FRS 102 Section 1a "Small Entities" - "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of
Ireland". The date of transition is 1 August 2015. In preparing the financial statements, the directors have
considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS102 Section 1a "Small Entities", the
restatement of comparative items was required. The transition to FRS102 Section 1a "Small Entities" has not
resulted in any changes in accounting policies to those previously used .

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates,
value added tax and other sales taxes.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of the business, is not being amortised in
accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A. This is a departure from the requirements of
the Companies Act 2006 which requires all Intangibles to be amortised. The directors consider that the carrying
value of the company's goodwill has not reduced following an impairment review.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on reducing balance

Financial instruments
The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial
instruments. Basic financial instruments are recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their
settlement value.

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 balance sheet date.

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.

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 profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Debtors under contract
Debtors under contract have been valued at the value of service provided to date based on a proportion of the
total expected consideration at completion.
