NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
D H Pearson Limited (the Company) is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The Company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling. The financial statements are for the year ended 31 March 2023.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
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 accounts.
The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue to recharge costs to other Group companies. However the validity of the going concern basis is dependent upon the continued positive trade of the Group so it can be repaid for it's intercompany debtors. If the Company is unable to continue recharges, adjustments would be required to reduce the value of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide any further liabilities that might arise and to analyse both fixed assets and long term liabilities as a current asset/liabilities.
The Directors have assessed the performance and overall going concern status of the group and consider that the group will continue to be able to repay its debt for costs incurred within the company. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The Company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.
All transactions entered into with companies under common control were concluded under normal market conditions, therefore no further disclosure is necessary in accordance with FRS102 section 1A.
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.
Turnover is recognised when the recharge has been made to the Group companies.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery - 25% on cost
Motor vehicles - 15% on cost
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment.
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, 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.
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.
|
|
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
|
The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the Company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 12 (2022 - 14).
