The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of providing catering and conferencing facilities and design and build services during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax. Turnover is recognised as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and is recognised as the service is provided.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Work in progress is valued at cost and includes loan interest and attributable overheads.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
