LEONARD INVESTMENTS LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 00674147)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 December 2023


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Leonard Investments Limited 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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Significant judgements and estimates
The directors have made key assumptions in the determination of the fair value of the investment properties.

Turnover
Turnover represents rents receivable under operating leases from freehold investment properties held in addition to recharges made to tenants, which are recognised as expenditure in the accounts. Rentals receivable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at their historic cost price less accumulated depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for use. The asset's residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed if there is an indication of significant change since the last reporting date.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates on order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Plant and machinery etc 25% on cost

On disposal the difference between the net proceeds and carrying amount of the item sold is recognised in the profit and loss account, and included in administrative expenses.

Investment property
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Investment property is initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. Subsequently investment property is shown at the most recent valuation, being the fair value of the property. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the profit and loss account and is subsequently transferred to non-distributable reserves on the balance sheet.

The company has applied S841 of the Companies Act 2006 allowing provisions for diminution in value to be grouped with overall net unrealised gains. Any losses are therefore only transferred to the non-distributable reserve as far as they can be matched against overall net unrealised gains.

Current tax
Current tax is the amount of corporation tax payable in respect of taxable profit for the year or prior years. Tax is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date. Timing differences are differences between the company's taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements.

Deferred tax is measured at the average tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is measured on a non-discounted basis.

Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at rates of exchange at the accounting date. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are taken to the profit and loss account.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company makes payments into pension schemes for its employees, including fulfilling its requirements under auto enrolment. The assets of the schemes are held separately from those of the company in independently administered funds. The pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the funds in the year.

Fixed asset investments
Investments are initially recorded at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and including acquisition costs associated with the investment. Listed investments are subsequently measured at fair value at the reporting date, being the quoted price in an active market, with the quoted price usually being the current bid price. Any changes in fair value are recognised in the profit and loss account.

Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified as basic or non-basic following the conditions on FRS 102 Section 11. Basic financial instruments are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction cost) and subsequently recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The company does not have any non-basic financial instruments.

Operating lease - lessor accounting
Investment properties are held for use in operating leases. Rent receivable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight line basis over the lease term.
