Notes to the Financial Statements |
|
Period from 9 June 2022 to 30 November 2023
1.
General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is 23-25 Eastcastle Street, London, W1W 8DF, England.
2.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.
3.
Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are prepared in United States Dollars, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
The directors have undertaken a rigorous assessment of whether the company was a going concern when the accounts were prepared, considering all available information about the future, covering a period of 12 months from the date of the approval of the financial statements. In establishing whether to continue to report under the going concern assumption we have considered the following points: - The impact on the day to day trade of the business - The impact on the ability of our suppliers to meet our needs - The impact of our staff's ability to perform their duties - The impact on our cash position of a period of minimum activity A detailed budget and cashflow have been prepared for the production and delivery of the film. Funds to meet the cashflow requirements are contractually in place and the directors do not anticipate any material overspend now that production has been completed and formally delivered at the date of sign off. After considering all factors, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.
Comparatives
The accounts cover the period from incorporation through to 30 November 2023, hence there are no comparative figures. The accounting period has been extended to ensure that the accounting period end is as close to the parent as possible.
Disclosure exemptions
The entity satisfies the criteria of being a qualifying small entity as defined in FRS 102. As such, advantage has been taken of the following disclosure exemptions available under section 1A of FRS 102: (a) No cash flow statement has been presented for the company (b) Disclosures in respect of financial instruments have not been presented
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
There are no material judgements or estimates made during preparation of the financial statements
.
Foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded in the functional currency, by applying the spot exchange rate as at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date, with any gains or losses being taken to the profit and loss account.
Work in progress
Work-in-progress relates to direct production costs, net of tax credits, subsidies and grants, incurred on productions not delivered during the period. Production costs are recognised in the profit and loss accounts as soon as the programme is delivered and the related production revenue is recognised.
Financial instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Intra-group borrowings are debt instruments and are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using an effective interest method.
4.
Employees
The company has been incorporated to produce a film entitled "Kinds of Kindness". In common with the film and television industry the majority of crew are hired on short term contracts for the duration of principal photography or are self-employed.
None of the Directors received any form of remuneration.
