2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
Plant and machinery | - | 25% on cost |
Fixtures and fittings | - | 25% on cost |
Motor vehicles | - | 25% on cost |
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying value of the asset and is credited or charged to the income statement. |
Investments in subsidiaries |
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost. |
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 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. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability. |

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 also provides pension benefits for senior employees. Under the terms of the pension contracts entered into with the senior employees, fixed sums are provided for now in order to provide pension benefits to the individuals upon their retirement. The pension contracts allow for an annual increase in respect of indexation over and above the initial contracted amount. |
Although under section 28 of FRS 102 this pension arrangement is regarded as being a defined benefit scheme, the directors consider that it does not bear any of the hallmarks of a defined benefit scheme as the company's contributions are fixed until the point of retirement as which point any further contributions of annual increases cease. Further information can be found in note 13 to the financial statements. |

80,000 | 333,744 |
The company provides pension benefits in respect of 2 senior employees. Amounts payable are charged to the profit or loss account in the year as a constructive obligation existed at the balance sheet date. This obligation was satisfied by the company entering into the contracts with the employees. The number of directors to whom pension benefits are accruing under these pension agreements is 2 (2022 2). |
The contributions and potential liabilities of the company in respect of the pension agreement are fixed at least until the date of retirement of the employees which is over 6 years from the balance sheet date for Benjamin Stirling and 3 years from the balance sheet date for John Bairner. |
Although under section 28 of FRS 102 this pension arrangement is regarded as being a defined benefit scheme, the directors are of the opinion that it does not bear any of the hallmarks of what is usually considered to be a defined benefit scheme and, therefore, no further disclosures are considered necessary in order to understand the nature and measurement of the liability. |
The directors are also of the opinion that the liability as disclosed in the financial statements represents the full and final amount which could be expected, at this stage, to be paid in the future to settle the pension agreement liabilities. |
