2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover is the net income from trading in shares, securities and financial options. |
Interest and dividends receivable |
Interest income and dividend income is recognised when the company's right to receive payment is established. |
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. |
Current asset investments |
The main objective of the company is the trading of securities. Current asset investments are recognised initially at fair value, which is the transaction price. As they are traded publicly their fair value is recognised through the profit and loss account as turnover. At the Balance Sheet date the investments are measured at the lower of their cost and market value. |
At 31 October 2023 the fair value of the current asset investments was £1,005,420 (2023 £375,950). This fair value movement has not been included in the profit and loss as it constitutes trading stock. |

7. | RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES |
Directors remuneration and professional services for the year are made up of two fees. These fees are paid to the directors and to their consultancy management company. |
The management fee is calculated using a weighted average of the monthly net asset value of the company. The fee is set at 0.75% on the first £1.6m and 0.375% on the balance thereafter. For the year to 31 October 2024 this amounted to £14,268, (2023 £13,715). |
The performance fee is 20% of the excess of the profit (after expenses, management fee and tax), over the income earned if the same funds had been invested at the average base rate over the same period. For the year to 31 October 2024 this amounted to £15,400, (2023 £14,900). |
During the year an outstanding loan made to Valerian Developments Limited, a company in which Mr and Mrs Hepworth are directors, was repaid in full. The capital amount outstanding at the start of the year was £355,000. Interest was charged on this loan at 1.25% below Bank of England base rate. During the year interest was received of £13,157 (2023 £8587). This is at a lower rate than that charged to other borrowers, as the directors believe that this loan is made without risk. |
Funds are loaned to related parties at 6% pa and any other third parties at 12% pa. |
