| WATTLE INVESTMENTS LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07467857) |
| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Wattle Investments Limited is a |
| The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company |
| Information page. |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Related party exemption |
| The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 |
| 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related |
| party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
| Significant judgements and estimates |
| The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also |
| requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the company accounting |
| policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions |
| and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed within the individual accounting |
| policies below. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, |
| rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. |
| Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted |
| for as separate items of property, plant and equipment. |
| Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each balance sheet date. The |
| selection of these residual values and estimated lives requires the exercise of judgement. The |
| directors are required to assess whether there is an indication of impairment to the carrying value of |
| assets. In making that assessment, judgements are made in estimating value in use. The directors |
| consider that the individual carrying values of assets are supportable by their value in use. |
| Investments in subsidiaries |
| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Financial instruments |
| Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and in hand and short term |
| deposits with an original maturity date of three months or less. |
| Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are |
| recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of |
| comprehensive income under administrative expenses. |
| Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual |
| arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in |
| the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities. |
| Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments (including share capital) are equivalent to a |
| similar debt instrument, those financial instruments are classed as financial liabilities. Financial |
| liabilities are presented as such in the balance sheet. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to |
| financial liabilities are included in the profit and loss account. Finance costs are calculated so as to |
| produce a constant rate of return on the outstanding liability. |
| Where the contractual terms of share capital do not have any terms meeting the definition of a |
| financial liability then this is classed as an equity instrument. Dividends and distributions relating to |
| equity instruments are debited direct to equity. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
