Notes to the Financial Statements
1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, as applicable to companies subject to the small entities regime.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and VAT, and represents commissions earned in respect of property sales and fees earned from the letting and management of rental properties. Turnover relating to property sales is recognised when an unconditional contract is entered into in respect of the relevant property transaction. Letting and management fees are typically a percentage of the rent received by the landlord, charged monthly and deducted from the rent, and are recognised as turnover on that basis over the term of each tenancy.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:
Equipment over 3 years
Furniture and fittings over 5 years
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price less any provision for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at fair value, taking account of any transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value, taking account of any transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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.
Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.
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 liabilities.

Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments (including share capital) are equivalent to a similar debt instrument those financial instruments are classified as financial liabilities and are presented as such in the balance sheet.

Where the contractual terms of financial instruments do not meet the definition of a financial liability those financial instruments are classified as equity instruments. Dividends and other distributions relating to equity instruments are debited direct to equity.
Pensions
Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.
