Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 October 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Marshall Wilson Law Group Limited is a private company, limited by shares, domiciled in Scotland, registration number SC348870. The registered office is 2 High Street, Falkirk, Stirlingshire, FK1 1EZ. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover represents the fair value of professional services provided during the year to clients. Turnover is recognised as contract activity and the right to consideration earned. Fair value reflects the amount expected to be recoverable from clients and is based on time spent, skills and expertise provided, excluding VAT. Turnover which has been recognised but not invoiced by the balances sheet date is included within debtors. |
Goodwill |
Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, net of anticipated disposal proceeds, over the estimated useful economic life of that asset as follows: |
Goodwill - 20% Straight Line |
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation |
Plant and machinery etc | - |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Cost represents purchase price together with any incidental costs of acquisition. |
The directors have considered the residual value of all tangible fixed assets to be immaterial and therefore all tangible fixed assets are depreciated to nil value. |
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 tax |
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. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount has been reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. Provisions are discounted where the time value of money is material. |
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small. |
