The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE |
3. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover represents amounts received from gate and television receipts, sponsorship and commercial income, and transfer fees, exclusive of value added tax. Consideration is given to the point at which the company is entitled to receive the income. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Land and buildings | - |
Plant and machinery etc | - |
At each balance sheet date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. |
Expenditure of £500 or more on individual tangible fixed assets is capitalised at cost. Expenditure on assets below this threshold is charged directly to the profit and loss account in the period it is incurred. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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 taxation |
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. |
Going concern |
The directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. |
The Board of directors understand the need to revert to cost cutting measures within the Football Club, ensuring costs are more aligned with the reduced income levels associated with playing in the Scottish Lowland Football League. |
By aligning the operational costs of running the Club with income generated, the Club aims to improve upon the current financial position, budgeting as necessary to avoid the need for additional external funding in the medium to long term whilst continuing to meet its liabilities as they fall due. |
The going concern is subject to the continued support from the Football Club's fans, creditors and banking provider. The directors fully expect that this support will continue. |
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result in a withdrawal of support from the various groups mentioned above. |
Player and manager registrations |
Gains or losses on fees receivable from other football clubs on the transfer of players' or managers' registrations are recorded in the profit and loss account in the accounting period in which the transfer takes place. No value is attached to any registrations currently in place. |
Payments or receipts which are contingent on the performance of the team or players are not recognised until the events crystallising such payments or receipts have taken place. |
