NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Langley Business Park Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered office is Crown House, North Circular Road, Park Royal, London NW10 7PN. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Accounting convention |
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. |
Going concern |
In accordance with their responsibilities, the directors have considered the appropriateness of the going concern basis for the preparation of the financial statements. |
For this purpose, the directors have considered the adequacy of the company's cash resources covering the period 12 months ahead of the approval of these financial statements. |
The directors have reasonable expectations that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. |
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
Significant Judgements |
The significant judgements (apart from those involving estimations) that management has made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows: |
Property Valuations |
Properties are valued annually at fair value by the directors. Fair value is ascertained through review of a number of factors to include market knowledge and market yields. There is an inevitable degree of judgement involved and value can only ultimately be reliably tested in the market itself. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
Turnover represents the total invoice value, excluding VAT, of gross rental income charged to tenants during the year.Rental income is recognised once space is provided to tenants. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Investment property |
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss. |
Investment properties are accounted for as follows: |
- Investment properties are initially recognised at cost which includes purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. |
- Investment properties whose fair value can be measured reliably are measured at fair value. The surplus or deficit on revaluation is recognised in the consolidated income statement and accumulated in the revaluation reserve unless a deficit below original cost, or its reversal, on an individual investment property is expected to be permanent, in which case it is recognised in retained earnings for the year. |
Depreciation is provided only on those investment properties that are leasehold and where the unexpired lease term is less than 20 years. Although this accounting policy is in accordance with the applicable standard, FRS 102, it is a departure from the general requirement of the Companies Act 2006 for all tangible assets to be depreciated. In the opinion of the directors, compliance with the standard is necessary for the financial information to give a true and fair view. Depreciation or amortisation is only one of many factors reflected in the annual valuation and the amount in respect of this which might otherwise have been shown cannot be separately identified or quantified. |
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. |
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. |
