FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Cardiff City Development Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going concern |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In making their assessment, the directors have reviewed the balance sheet, the likely future cashflows of the business and have considered the facilities that are available to the company along with his continued support. |
At the date of approving the financial statements the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and that the going concern basis of accounting remains appropriate. The directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, which are described in note 2, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate id revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. |
The fair value of investment properties involved the use of professional valuation techniques, which are reviewed annually by management. Where factors that could impact the fair value are identified, appropriate adjustments are made through the income statement. |

Turnover |
Turnover is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of VAT and discounts. The policies adopted for the recognition of turnover are as follows: |
Rental income: |
Turnover is recognised at the fair value of rent received or receivable in the normal course of business. Rental income is recognised in the period which it relates. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Computer equipment | - |
Tangible fixed assets held for the company's own use are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. |
At each balance sheet date, the company reviews the carrying amount of its tangible fixed assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. |
Investment property |
The fair value of investment properties involved the use of professional valuation techniques, which are reviewed annually by management. Where factors that could impact the fair value are identified, appropriate adjustments are made through the income statement. |
Investment properties are held to generate rental income and capital appreciation. Investment properties are initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Investment properties are subsequently remeasured at fair value. An assessment of investment property fair value is performed annually. Any changes in fair value are recognised in the income statement. |
Deferred tax is recognised on any fair value changes at the rate that would apply to the sale of the investment property, unless the property has a limited useful life and is held as part of a business model to consume all of the economic benefits associated with it. |
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. |

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. |
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. |
Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefit will be required in settlement and the amount can be reliable estimated. |
Impairment |
Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the assets cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease. |

Borrowing costs |
Borrowing costs including loan interest and loan arrangement charges are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction of the properties, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. |
Loan arrangement and set up fees paid to the lender are deferred and written off to the Profit and Loss account over the term of loan. |
Financial Instruments |
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 "Basic Financial Instruments". |
Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial instruments and include cash in hand and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. |
Basic financial assets |
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors, loans to related companies and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the financial asset is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. |
Basic financial liabilities |
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, loans to related companies and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financial transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. |
