1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
LS Photographic Services Limited is a |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going concern |
At the year end the company shows an insolvent balance sheet. The company meets its day to day working capital requirements through the support of its directors who have undertaken that this support will not be withdrawn within twelve months from the date of signature of these financial statements. On this basis the directors consider it appropriate to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of goods and services, excluding value added tax. |
Intangible assets |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance |
Computer equipment - 15% on reducing balance |
Epson photolab - 20% on straight line |
Stocks |
Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on a first in first out basis. Net realisable value represents estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Provision is made for slow moving, obsolete or damaged stock where the net realisable value is less than cost. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Financial instruments |
The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and loans from related parties. |
Leasing commitments |
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. |
The rights of use and obligations under finance leases are initially recognised as assets and liabilities at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. |
Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction in the outstanding liability using the effective interest rate method. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining |
balance of the liability. |
Leased assets are depreciated in accordance with the company's policy for tangible fixed assets. If there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the lower of the lease term and its useful life. |
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term. |
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. |
Debtors |
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. |
Creditors |
Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |

Provisions |
Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. |
Provisions are recognised at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. |
A provision for annual leave accrued by employees as a result of services rendered in the current period, and which employees are entitled to carry forward and use within the next 12 months is recognised. The provision is measured at the salary cost payable for the period of absence. |
