3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added tax.

Sales of vehicles are recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer which generally occurs when the vehicles are delivered to the customer and title has passed. Servicing and body shop sales are recognised on completion of the agreed work. Bonuses and commissions are recognised when the company becomes entitled to the income on a risk and rewards basis.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Land and buildings - 2% on cost
Plant and machinery etc - 33% on cost, 33% on reducing balance, 25% on reducing balance, 15% on reducing balance and 10% on reducing balance

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Provision is made for slow moving, obsolete or damaged stock where the net realisable value is less than cost.

Stocks include used and demonstrator vehicles which are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. Net realisable value is assessed by the directors.

Consignment stock consists of new unregistered vehicles still legally owned by the manufacturer. These vehicles are not recognised as stock by the company and there is no liability shown within trade creditors.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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 statement of financial position date.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

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.

Investment property
