NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Year Ended 31 October 2023
The company is a private company incorporated in the United Kingdom and limited by shares. It is registered in England and Wales. The address of its registered office is 7 The Close, Norwich, Norfolk, NR1 4DJ. The principal place of business is St Albans, Hertfordshire.
The company's principal activity during the year was public affairs events organisation, job advertising and advertising sales.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
At the balance sheet date the company's liabilities exceeded its assets by £17,835. With the continued support of the director, the director believes that the company will be able to continue in business and meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements.
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of public affairs events organisation, job advertising and advertising sales. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line and reducing balance method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

For the Year Ended 31 October 2023
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and susequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
|
|
Current and deferred taxation
|
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax.
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date.
Current and deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 1 (2022 - 1).
