Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Merrow Asset Management Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going concern |
The preparation of the financial statements requires the directors to make an assessment of the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The directors have reviewed this and consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. |
Revenue |
Revenue originates from three sources being, rental income, management fees and the sale of property. Revenue is recognised on rental properties when received and management fees are recognised when rental income is transferred to the relevant party. Revenue is recognised on the sale of property at completion. |
Investment property |
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss. |
Investment property is included at fair value. Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement. Deferred taxation is provided on these gains at the future tax rate expected to apply when the property may be sold. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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. |
