NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
For The Year Ended 31 MARCH 2024 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
The Orchards Lettings Partnership LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page. |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover represents the value of rental income chargeable in respect of the LLP's investment properties. Turnover is recognised evenly over the period of the rental agreements. |
Investment property |
Investment properties are carried at fair values. Revaluation surpluses are recognised in the statement of |
income. Deferred taxation is provided on these gains at the rate expected to apply when the property is sold. No depreciation is provided in respect of investment properties. |
The Companies Act 2006 requires all properties to be depreciated. However, this requirement conflicts with the generally accepted accounting principle set out in The Financial Reporting Standard 102 (Section 1A) for small entities. The partners considers that, because these properties are not held for consumption but for their investment potential, to depreciate them would not give a true and fair view and that it is necessary to adopt The Financial Reporting Standard 102 (Section 1A) for Smaller Entities in order to give a true and fair view. If this departure from the Act had not been made, the profit for the financial year would have been reduced by the amount of depreciation. |
3. | EMPLOYEE INFORMATION |
The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2023 - NIL). |
