Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going Concern |
The company transferred its trade and assets to its immediate parent company during the prior period. Consequently, the company has ceased trading and has become effectively a dormant company. The company has limited liabilities which will be settled using funds from the parent company which are due to the company. Therefore, the Directors have obtained a letter of parental support ensure this funding will be in place when it is required. The Directors have considered the parent company's ability to provide this support and concluded that it has substantial resources from which to provide this should it be required. On this basis, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of preparation in these financial statements. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. The current liability is based on taxable profit for the current or past reporting periods. The entity's taxable profit differed from the profit reported in profit or loss for the year because of items of income in expense which are taxable or deductible in different periods together with items which are beyond the scope fo tax and hence are never taxable or deductible. The entity's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates which have been enacted or substantively enacted, by the balance sheet date. |
Amounts of the current and deferred tax are generally recognised in the profit or loss, except when they relate to items which are recognised in other comprehensive income or equity as the case may be. |
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. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
Short-term employee benefits are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the obligations for contributions are recognised as an expense in the period they are incurred. Differences between contributions payable in the year and those actually paid are recognised as either prepayments or accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the defined contribution pension scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. |

Trade and other debtors |
Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at the transaction price and subsequently measured using the amortised cost method which uses the effective interest method. At each balance sheet date, the directors asses trade and other debtors for evidence of indicators of impairment and where the directors conclude that amounts in respect of trade and other debtors are not recoverable, a specific bad debt provision is recognised. Trade debtors are not interest-bearing. Where the effects of discounting trade and other debtors is judged to be immaterial, such debtors are stated at cost less impairment losses in respect of bad debts. |
Trade and other creditors |
Trade and other creditors are initially recognised in the financial statements at transaction price. Trade and other creditors are then subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, unless the effects of discounting would be considered immaterial. If the effects of discounting are judged to be immaterial, trade and other creditors are stated at cost. Trade creditors are not interest-bearing. |
