The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about Charlotte James Furniture 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. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
The directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant, actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Key accounting judgements include: |
The Company undertakes manufacturing contracts which take place over a period of time and revenue and profits are recognised as the contracts progress. The extent to which the contract revenue and profits have been earned involve estimating a percentage of completion under ongoing contracts which is based on costs incurred as a proportion of total estimated costs. Management base this assessment on detailed costings and progress reports and their experience of similar contracts in the past. Adjustments are made to reflect any after date events which have a significant impact on the final outcomes expected to be achieved on contracts. |
Turnover |
Revenue comprises the fair value of the sale of goods and services, net of value added tax, rebates and discounts. |
Sale of goods |
Sales of goods are recognised when the company has delivered products to the customer, the customer has accepted the products and collectability of the related receivables is fairly assured. |
Sale of services |
Service revenues are recognised as those services are provided to customers. |

Stocks |
Raw material stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Net realisable value is based on selling price less selling costs. |
Finished goods stock and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Net realisable value is based on selling price less anticipated costs to completion and selling costs. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. |
Financial instruments |
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. The company holds the following basic financial instruments. |
Financial assets |
Cash and cash equivalents - comprise cash in hand and deposits held with banks. |
Trade and other debtors - are initially measured at the undiscounted amounts receivable from a customer, which is normally the invoiced price. Trade and other debtors are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If such evidence is found an impairment loss is recognised. |
Financial liabilities |
Trade and other creditors - are initially measured at the transaction price, including any transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Amounts that are payable within one year are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be payable. Where a financial liability constitutes a financing transaction it is initially and subsequently measured at the present value of the future payments, discounted at a market rate of interest. |
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. |
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. |
