Financial instruments (continued)
|
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised in the balance sheet upon becoming party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or the financial asset is transferred along with substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party. Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the Company’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or
expired.
The measurement of specific financial assets, financial liabilities and equity is as outlined below:
Debtors, excluding deferred taxation (see note 2.6), are initially measured at transaction price (i.e fair value) and subsequently held, at transaction price less provision for impairment of assets.

Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash balances are reported by the Company as being financial instruments classified as short term receivables and are represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash balances are held at floating interest rates linked to UK bank rates.
Creditors are initially measured and subsequently held at transaction price (i.e fair value).
Ordinary share capital, shown in equity, is initially measured and subsequently held at its nominal value. Where the transaction price for issued shares exceeds their nominal value, the difference is shown under equity in a share premium account with any directly attributable transaction costs associated with the issuing of said shares deducted from a share premium account.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
|
In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the directors are required to apply judgment and make estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other available sources based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Consequently, actual results may differ from that originally estimated.
In the opinion of the directors, the following judgments, estimates and/or assumptions made in applying
the principal accounting policies, outlined in note 2 of these financial statements, towards the preparation of these financial statements may be considered as having a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and/or liabilities carried forward as at the balance sheet date where by which the actual future outcome observed may differ from that originally determined and reported.
