Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2023

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Car Assist 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.

The financial statements have not been prepared on a going concern basis as a result of a hive-across transaction.

The hive-across transaction involved the transfer of the trade and assets of the Company to Page Automotive Group Limited. As a result of this transaction, the Company ceased trading and its business operations transferred with effect from 1st January 2023.

Given the hive-across transaction, the Directors have concluded that the Company no longer meets the criteria of a going concern. Consequently, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern. These financial statements have been prepared on a basis that reflects the cessation of operations following the hive-across transaction, ensuring that all relevant assets, liabilities, and provisions are recognised appropriately.

The financial statements are presented in Sterling which is the functional currency of the company.

TURNOVER
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

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.

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.

6. DISCLOSURE UNDER SECTION 444(5B) OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006

The Report of the Auditors was unqualified.


We draw attention to Note 2 to the financial statements which explains that the directors intend in due course to liquidate the company and therefore do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in Note 2. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Donald Nelson FCA (Senior Statutory Auditor)
for and on behalf of Xeinadin Audit Limited

The company is jointly and severally liable in respect of a bank loan arising in Page Automotive Group Limited, a fellow group company, which is secured by a floating charge over the company's assets. The contingent liability at 31st December 2023 amounted to £583,333 (2022 - £783,333).

8. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES
