NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
For The Year Ended 30 June 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Gotch, Saunders & Surridge LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
In accordance with the principles of revenue recognition as stated in FRS 102, turnover is calculated by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction as at the end of the accounting period, including estimates of amounts not yet invoiced. |
In respect of long-term contracts and contracts for on-going services, turnover represents the value of work done in the accounting period, including estimates of amounts not invoiced. Turnover in respect of long-term contracts and contracts for on-going services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Improvements to property | - |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Computer equipment | - |
The freehold property held and used in the LLP’s own activities are stated in the statement of financial position at their revalued amounts. The revalued amounts equate to the fair value at the date of revaluation, less any depreciation or impairment losses subsequently accumulated. Revaluations are carried out regularly so that the carrying amounts do not materially differ from using the fair value at the date of the statement of financial position. |
Any revaluation increase or decrease on land and buildings is credited to the fair value reserve in ‘Members’other interests’. |
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. Impairment loss is recognised as an expense immediately. |
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as income immediately. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The LLP operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the LLP's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |

Members' participation rights |
Members' participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the members' agreement (for example, in respect of amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed, remunerated and profits). |
Members' participation rights in the earnings or assets of the LLP are analysed between those that are, from the LLP's perspective, either a financial liability or equity, in accordance with FRS 25 (IAS 32) Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation and UITF abstract 39 members' shares in cooperative entities and similar instruments. A member's participation right results in a liability unless the right to any payment is discretionary on the part of the LLP. |
Amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed by members, for example members' capital, are classed as equity if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment to members. If the LLP does not have such an unconditional right, such amounts are classified as liabilities. |
Where profits are automatically divided as they arise, so the LLP does not have an unconditional right to refuse payment, the amounts arising that are due to members are in the nature of liabilities. They are therefore treated as an expense in the profit and loss account in the relevant year. To the extent that they remain unpaid at the end of the accounting period, they are shown as liabilities in the balance sheet. |
Conversely, where profits are divided only after a decision by the LLP or its representative, so that the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment, such profits are classed as an appropriation of equity rather than as an expense. They are therefore shown as a residual amount available for discretionary division among members in the profit and loss account and are equity appropriations in the balance sheet. |
Other amounts applied to members, for example remuneration paid under an employment contract and interest on capital balances, are treated in the same way as all other divisions of profits, as described above, according to whether the LLP has, in each case, an unconditional right to refuse payment. |
All amounts due to members that are classified as liabilities are presented in the balance sheet within 'loans and other debts due to members' are charged to the profit and loss account within 'members' remuneration charged as an expense'. Amounts due to members that are classified as equity are shown in the balance sheet within 'members' other interests'. |
