Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Significant judgements and estimates |
The directors have not been required to make any material critical judgements in the process of applying the company's accounting policies. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents sales of computer consultancy and software development and installation services. Where the outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably turnover is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period. |
Goodwill |
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the separable net assets of businesses acquired. It is initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, it is measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
The goodwill on the acquisition of a business on 31 December 2010 has been amortised through the profit and loss account in equal instalments over its estimated useful life of 5 years |
Tangible fixed assets |

Financial instruments |
Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The company holds only basic financial instruments, which comprise cash at bank, trade and other debtors and trade creditors. |
Cash and cash equivalents - these include deposits held with banks. |
Trade and other debtors - these are initially recognised at the transaction price and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. Amounts that are receivable within one year are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be receivable, net of any impairment. |
Trade creditors - these are initially measured at the transaction price and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Amounts that are payable within one year are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be payable. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement. |
Current taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position 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. |
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |

Employee benefits |
Short term benefits |
Short term benefits, including holiday pay and other similar non-monetary benefits are recognised as an expense in the period in which the service is received. An accrual is recognised for short term compensated absences where entitlement has accumulated, but has not been taken, at the reporting date. |
Defined contribution pension schemes |
The company operates defined contribution pension schemes, the assets of which are held separately from those of the company in independently administered funds. Contributions payable are recognised in profit or loss in the year to which the contributions relate. |
Operating leases |
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. |
Going concern |
The company has considerable financial resources together with established business relationships with a number of customers across different geographic areas and industries. As a consequence the directors believe that the company is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. |
The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements. |
