Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Hill Coates Associates Limited is a private company, limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales and has its registered office and principal place of business at Home Farm House, High Street, South Moreton, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 9AG.

The principal activity of the company was that of recruitment consultancy.

The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£), which is also the functional currency of the company.

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.

Turnover
Revenue (described as Turnover) is the amount receivable for services rendered, net of returns, discounts and value added tax. Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable and is recognised at the point the service is delivered.

Financial instruments
Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently remeasured to amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts, except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are shown within current liabilities.

Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently remeasured to amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

Going concern
The directors are aware of the current financial position of the entity, however see no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the company to continue trading, therefore they have adopted the going concern basis of accounting.
