The Island Whisky Company Limited is a |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going Concern |
The accounts have been prepared on the going concern basis, the acceptability of which is dependent on the continuing support of the directors and creditors. |
Turnover |
Turnover is stated net of trade discounts and is recognised when significant risks and rewards are considered to have been transferred to the buyer. Turnover from th supply of services represents the value of services provided under contracts to the extent that there is a right to consideration and is recorded at fair value of consideration received or receivable. The company is not registered for value added tax. |
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. |
Development costs are being amortised evenly over their estimated useful life of twenty years. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is |
provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of |
each asset on a straight line basis over its expected useful life, as follows: |
Improvements to property - 25% on cost |
Plant and machinery - 20% on cost |
Fixtures & fittings - 25% on cost |
Computer equipment - 25% on cost |
Residual value represents the estimated amount which would currently be obtained from disposal of an asset, after deducting estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life. |
Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease. |
Financial instruments |
The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. |
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 using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax arises as a result of including items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods different from those in which they are included in the company's accounts. Deferred tax is provided in full on timing differences which result in an obligation to pay more (or less) tax at a future date, at the average tax rates that are expected to apply when the timing differences reverse, based on current tax rates and laws. |
Deferred tax is not provided on timing differences arising from the revaluation of fixed assets where there is no commitment to sell the asset. |
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. As the exchange rate did not fluctuate significantly during the year, transactions in foreign currency are translated into sterling at the average exchange rate for the year. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. |
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. |
Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement |
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the company qualifies as a small company. |
