Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going concern |
The director is required to assess the basis on which the accounts for the year ended 30th November 2023 are prepared and, in particular, whether the going concern basis remains appropriate. |
The company made a loss for the year as a whole reflecting higher costs in the early part of the year and the costs of subsequent downsizing. In the second half of the year the company achieved a return to profitability in each of the last six months of the year. |
Since the year end, the company has continued to trade profitably, and the director is optimistic about achieving a positive result for the year as a whole. |
Whilst the erosion caused by the recent loss making caused the company to have net liabilities at the year -end, it had a sizable cash balance at the year-end and It has, In addition, the availability of an invoice discounting facility and is forecast to be cash positive for the year. |
Taking into account the foregoing, the director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its accounts. |
Income recognition |
Income comprises the turnover attributable to normal contract activity and the sub-letting of studios during the year, exclusive of VAT. |
Normal contract activity is measured on an accruals basis, attributing the revenue to the period in which the service was performed, where activity overlaps the year end. The sub-letting of studios is measured on an accruals basis based on the amounts receivable during the year. |
Goodwill |
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2013, has now been fully amortized. |
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |

Financial instruments |
The following assets and liabilities are classified as financial instruments - trade debtors, trade creditors, bank loans and directors' loans. |
Bank loans are initially measured at the present value of future payments, discounted at a market rate of interest, and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
Trade debtors and trade creditors are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. |
Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, 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 or receivable in respect of group relief using the tax rates and laws 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. |
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. |
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. |
