Accounting policies
Company information

Z Hotels Strand Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 53-59 Chandos Place, London, United Kingdom, WC2N 4HS.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Section 1A of FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Going concern

At the year end the company had net liabilities of £1,387,675 (2023: £3,412,412). The company is reliant on the support of its shareholder in order to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The directors of the company have assessed the company's financial position, budgets and cash flow forecasts to March 2026. The directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will have adequate resources available to it in order to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the signing of these accounts. As a result the company has prepared its financial statements on a going concern basis.

1.3
Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets consist of assets under construction. These assets are classified under tangible fixed assets due to the probability that a future economic benefit will be associated with the asset, and the cost or value can be measured reliably.

Assets in the course of construction are not depreciated.

1.4
Fixed asset investments

Interests in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

An associate is an entity, being neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture, in which the company holds a long-term interest and where the company has significant influence. The company considers that it has significant influence where it has the power to participate in the financial and operating decisions of the associate.

Entities in which the company has a long term interest and shares control under a contractual arrangement are classified as jointly controlled entities.
