Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 30 November 2023

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes, and represents revenue earned from the rendering of services, which is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the work.

    Other accounting policies

    Debtors: Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Creditors: Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). 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, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. ----------------------------- Notes to the accounts: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS: Loan from director K I E Glandien 2023 £500 2022 £500
