NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 JANUARY 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Detecticity Ltd is a private company, limited by shares, registered in Scotland, registration number SC542303. The registered office is 35 Bath Street, Glasgow, Scotland, G2 1HW.

The principal activity of the company is outdoor adventure/mystery games.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
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.

The presentational and functional currency of the financial statements is Pounds Sterling (£).

Significant judgements and estimates
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Company's accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively.

The following judgements and estimates have had the most significant effects on amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Intangible fixed assets consist of the company website & game development, which are stated at cost less amortisation. Amortisation is calculated in order to write down the cost to the estimated residual values over the period of the estimated useful economic lives.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable, taking into account the amount of any discounts and rebates allowed by the entity, but excluding value added tax and other sales taxes (where appropriate).

Services
Income from outdoor adventure games is recognised when performed, such that risks and rewards have been transferred to the user.

Government grants - COVID
COVID related local authority grant funding is recognised on receipt, whereas grant funding received in relation to the Job Retention Scheme is recognised in the period in which the associated wages are paid.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Computer software is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of three years.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 25% on cost

Financial instruments
The company has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments.

Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances.

Creditors
Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price.

Provisions
Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as finance cost.

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.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.
