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

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Xpress Recruitment Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Scotland. 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.

Turnover and revenue recognition
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of goods, excluding value added tax in respect of the supply
of staff recruitment consultancy.

Revenue is recognised on the date of staff placement.

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 etc - 25% on reducing balance and 20% 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 initially recognised at transaction value and
subsequently measured at their settlement value.

All loans with related parties are all repayable on demand.

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.

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.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the
period of the lease.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 4 (2016 - 9 ) .
