select suitable accounting policies for the company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;

make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;


prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

General information

ET Investments Limited (“the company”) is a limited company domiciled and incorporated in England.
The address of the company's registered office is Third Floor, Citygate, St James' Boulevard, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 4JE. The principal place of operations is 25 Main Street, Ponteland, Northumberland, NE20 9NH.
The principal activity of the company during the year was that of an investment company.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" ("FRS 102"), the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies under the small companies regime and under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain financial investments at fair value.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company, and are rounded to the nearest pound.

 
2.2

Going concern

The company's business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Directors' Report.
The company continues to enjoy the support of its controlling parties Eaga Partnership Trustee Limited and Eaga Partnership Trustee Two Limited. The controlling parties of the company have at their disposal sufficient resources for the company to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and the directors of the controlling parties have confirmed their willingness to continue with this support.
As a consequence, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. They have therefore adopted the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.3

Taxation

Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the reporting date, except that:
The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and
Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

 
2.4

Investment income

Investment income is accounted for in the period in which the company is entitled to the receipt.

 
2.5

Investments

Investments are included at fair value as described below:
Unquoted securities are included at fair value estimated by the directors as set out at note 7.

 
2.6

Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102, in full, to all of its financial instruments.
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument, and are offset only when the company currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Financial assets
Investments
Investments are included at fair value through net income and expenditure as described below:
Unlisted securities are included at fair value.

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.6
Financial instruments (continued)


Financial liabilities and equity
Financial instruments are classified as liabilities and equity instruments 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 company after deducting all of its liabilities.

Equity instruments
Financial instruments classified as equity instruments are recorded at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of direct costs of issuing the equity instruments.
Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price, including transaction costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.  Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and other similar charges. Commitments to receive a loan are measured at cost less impairment.
Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities
A financial asset is derecognised only when the contractual rights to cash flows expire or are settled, or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.  A financial liability (or part thereof) is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract is is discharged, cancelled or expires


3.


Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Investments
The carrying value of the investments is based on an annual report produced by the Limited Partnership's Manager and the directors' assessment of the appropriate fair value.
