1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Cutter & Co Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


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
Turnover represents the value of professional services performed and billed during the period.

In addition to the amount billed an adjustment is made at each year end for work-in-progress which is valued by considering the stage of completion against the estimated final billable amount.

All amounts are measured excluding value added tax.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of businesses in 2010 and 2020, is initially recorded at cost.

Goodwill is then amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of 10 years but at each year end the directors consider any necessary impairment.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property - 10% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance
Computer and office equipment - 25% on reducing balance

Stock and work in progress
Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowances for obsolete items.

Work in progress is valued by considering the stage of completion against the estimated final billable amount of the job.

Financial instruments
The company has opted to apply the exemption from the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' of FRS 102 in respect of all of its financial instruments.

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 balance sheet date.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2024

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
