Notes to the financial accounts
Year ended 30 November 2023
1.
Accounting policies
Statutory information
These financial accounts have been prepared in compliance with the provisions of FRS 102, Section 1A, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same financial statements.
Paton Bros Scaffolding Limited is a private company, limited by shares, domiciled in England and Wales, registration number
04519565
. The registered office is Lillyhall Industrial Estate, Pitwood Road, Lillyhall, CA14 4JP.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102 Section 1A small entities. There were no material departures from that standard.The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets.
Turnover
Turnover represents the total invoice value, excluding value added tax, of all work done in the period under contracts to supply goods and services to third parties. It includes the relevant proportion of contract values where work is partially performed in the period.
Operating leases
Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.
Tangible assets
Tangible fixed assets are included at cost less depreciation and impairment.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Short leasehold property |
- |
2 % |
reducing balance |
|
Plant and machinery |
- |
7.5 % |
reducing balance |
|
Fittings fixtures and equipment |
- |
15 % |
reducing balance |
|
Motor vehicles |
- |
20 % |
reducing balance |
|
|
|
|
|
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.
Impairment
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Deferred taxation
Deferred taxation is provided on the liability method to take account of timing differences between the treatment of certain items for accounts purposes and their treatment for tax purposes. Tax deferred or accelerated is accounted for in respect of all material timing differences.
Financial instruments
Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost, except for fixed asset investments which are measured at fair value, with changes recognised in the fair value reserve.
Pension costs
The company operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. Contributions payable are recognised in comprehensive income when due.

Employee numbers
The average number of persons employed by the company during the year amounted to
49
