Notes to the Financial Statements
For The Year Ended 30 April 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

DOOTSONS LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page.

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 requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The partnerships forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably probable changes in trading performance show that the partnership should be able to operate within the level of its current financing arrangements.

After making enquiries, the partners have a reasonable expectation that the partnership has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

The partnership therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis of preparation for its financial statements.

Turnover
Fee income represents revenue earned under a wide variety of contracts to provide professional services. Revenue is recognised as earned when, and to the extent that, the firm obtains the right to consideration in exchange for its performance under these contracts. It is measured at the fair value of the right to consideration, which represents amounts chargeable to clients, excluding value added tax.

Revenue is generally recognised as contract activity progresses so that for incomplete contracts the amount of revenue reflects the partial performance of the contractual obligations. For such contracts the amount of the revenue reflects the accrual of the right to consideration by reference to the value of work performed. Revenue not billed to clients is included in debtors and payment on account in excess of the relevant amount of revenue are included in creditors.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at costs less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:

Land and buildings leasehold 10% per annum straight line basis
Plant and machinery etc25% per annum straight line basis

3. EMPLOYEE INFORMATION

The average number of employees during the year was 29 (2023 - 28 ) .
