Notes to the Accounts
for the year ended 31 May 2024
1 Statutory information
Mahtec Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated 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 accounts is the pound sterling (£).
The principal activity of the company continued to be that of a holding company.
2 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard) and the Companies Act 2006.
The company is a parent company, but is exempt from the requirement to prepare group accounts by virtue of section 400 of the Companies Act 2006. These accounts therefore represent information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about its group.
Related party exemption
The company has taken advantage of the exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.
Investments
Investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.
Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss account, 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 as the amount of tax payable using the 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 the 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 they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.
Finance costs
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
Going concern
At the time of approving the accounts, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operating existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.
