NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Hotel Colessio (Holdings) Limited is a |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about Hotel Colessio (Holdings) Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets excluding freehold property are stated at cost, or where appropriate fair value, less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at the rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life. |
Depreciation is not provided on the freehold property on the basis that the hotel is a historical building, and the economic life can not be reasonably estimated. Additionally, the directors opinion is that the residual value of the property is high and therefore any depreciation charge would be negligible and immaterial. This is in accordance with FRS 102. The directors have considered the value of the property in light of recent valuation and do not believe that any impairment to the value included in the financial statements is necessary. |
The freehold property is revalued each year-end by the directors at open market value with the surplus being taken to revaluation reserve. |
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss. |
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 balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Going concern |
The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, as the director has confirmed that funds will continue to be made available for the company to meet its day to day commitments for the foreseeable future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the withdrawal of this support and the director is of the opinion that the going concern basis is therefore appropriate to the preparation of these financial statements. |

Freehold property was revalued on 04 May 2023 to its fair value of £4,240,000 by Frank Knight LLP, Chartered Surveyors who are independent of the company and have experience of valuing similar properties. If freehold property were included in the balance sheet on an historical cost basis, then the carrying amount would be £5,480,714 (2022 - £5,538,664), including accumulated depreciation of £314,335 (2022 - £256,385). The directors are of the opinion that, given the static nature of the property market in recent times, the difference between the fair value on 04 May 2023 and the estimated fair value as at 31 December 2023 was not significant, therefore they have adopted the fair value provided by Knight Frank in preparing the financial statements. |
