Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 31 July 2024
1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard).
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Funds
Secord-Evans Fund. This was set up to provide training and assistance to teachers and trainers.
General Fund. This was set up to provide a financial cushion should the Society cease operating.

6 Related party transactions
EMDUK provided administrative services under licence to The Medau Society Ltd up to 31 March 2021. This involved collecting and banking membership and teachers' fees and paying certain expenses. The membership and teachers' fees were retained by EMDUK in order to cover their costs. An additional Licence fee was paid for EMDUK costs not wholly covered by the collected fees.
From 1 April 2021 Medau pays a service charge to EMDUK for services actually received.
The calculation changed from charges based as a percentage of certain costs to one based on
actual costs incurred.
Medau paid £4,952 (2023: £8,291) to EMDUK in respect of costs for the year to 31 March 2024.
The amount due to EMDUK at the year end was £nil (2023: £4,400).
