Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that, as disclosed in the accounting policies, certain items are shown at fair value.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for sales to third parties in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other related taxes.

Revenue from rental of properties is recognised when services have been provided and the right to consideration has been earned.

Tax

Tax is recognised in the profit or loss of the company.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.

Deferred taxation is provided on the liability method to take account of timing differences between the treatment of certain items for accounts purposes and their treatment for tax purposes.

Deferred tax is accounted for in respect of all material timing differences. Deferred tax is charged/(credited) to the profit and loss account.

 

Cairnmore Limited

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2024

Tangible assets

Tangible assets other than investment properties, are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Depreciation method and rate

Fixtures and fittings

25% on reducing balance and 10% on cost

Investment property

Investment properties are properties held to earn rentals and for capital appreciation. Investment properties are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs.

Subsequently, investment properties are measured at fair value. Deferred tax is provided on these movements. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment properties are included in the profit and loss account in the period in which they arise.

Investments

Investments in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Dividends on equity securities are recognised in income when receivable.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised at the transaction price.

 

Cairnmore Limited

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 June 2024

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Profit and Loss Account over the period of the relevant borrowing.

Interest expenses are recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and included in interest payable
and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Provisions

Provisions are set up only where it is possible that a present obligation exists as a result of an event prior to the balance sheet date and that a payment will be required in settlement that can be estimated reliably. Where material, provisions are calculated on a discounted basis.

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.

Dividends

Dividend distribution to the company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.

Financial instruments

Classification

The following assets and liabilities are classified as financial instruments - trade debtors, trade creditors, bank loans and director's loans to the company.

 Recognition and measurement

Trade debtors and trade creditors are measured at the undiscounted amounts receivable from a customer or payable to a supplier, which is normally the invoice price.

Director's loans to the company which are repayable on demand are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash expected to be paid.

Investments in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where the fair value of the shares cannot be measured reliably are initially measured at cost, including transaction costs. The investment is not remeasured except where impairment has been identified.


 Impairment

Trade debtors and investments in equity shares are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If such evidence is found, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

Summary of transactions with subsidiaries

Cairnmore Limited has provided a guarantee in respect of the bank loan in it's subsidiary, Cairnmore One Limited.

During the period, BBB Properties Limited, the company’s wholly owned subsidiary, carried out an intra-group transfer of all its assets and the decision was taken to strike off the company. As a result these accounts include an impairment provision for the investment and a write-off of the intercompany loans.

The company has taken advantage of the exemption granted by FRS 102 not to report details of the transactions with it's wholly owned subsidiary undertakings.
