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.
Going concern
Revenue recognition

Investment property
Borrowings
All borrowing costs are recognised in the profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
Impairment of Fixed Assets
At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts to it's intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. if any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the assset is estimated in order to determin the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possiblt to estimate recoverable amount of an indiviual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount to the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cashflows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cashflows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than it's carrying amount, the carying amount of asset is reduced to it's recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses the carrying amount of the asset (or cash generating-unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount but so that theincreased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior-years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as revaluation increase.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 July 2024
Stocks
Stocks represent work in progress relating to property development, and are stated at lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of work in progress comprises land, buildings, design costs, raw materials,direct labour, borrowing costs and other direct costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present condition. Net Relisable value is the estimate selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable selling expenses.
At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment l;osses are also recognised in profit or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, 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.
Financial Instruments
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its Financial Instruments.
Financial Instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement consitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future reciepts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as recievable within one year are not amortised.
Classification of Financial Liabilities
Financial Liabilities and Equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the asssets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Basic Financial Liabilities
Central Link Properties Ltd
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 July 2024
Basic Financial Liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classsified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt Instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordianry course of business from suppliers. Amount payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. trade creditors are recognized initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using effective interest method.
Taxation
The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deffered tax.
Current Tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in profit and loss acccount because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting end date.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax liabilites are generally recognised for all timig differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and laibilities are not recognised if the timig difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at tax rate that are expected to apply in the period when the liability ios settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilties relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.
Finance Costs
Fiannce Cost are charged to the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognized as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
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.
Judgement and Key Sources of estimation uncertainity
Central Link Properties Ltd
Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 July 2024
In the application of the company's accounting policies, the director is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readilty apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates is revised where the revision effects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision effects both current and future periods.
Investment properties are professionally valued annualy using a yeild methodology. This uses market rental values capitalised at a market capitalisation rate but there is an inevitable degree of judgement involved in that each property is unique and value can only ultimately be reliably tested in market itself.

Investment property comprises property historically included in stocks and was subsequently appropriated as an investment property.
The investment property was revalued to £4,200,000 on 31 July 2023 by Calton & Co, an independent firm of Chartered Surveyors who have experience in valuing similar properties. The valuation was undertaken, on the basis of an open market value for existing use, taking into consideration the current condition of the property.
The directors are not aware of any material change in value since the date of the valuation and consider that the balance sheet value of the investment property is not materially different from the true market value.
If revalued investment property was stated on a historical cost basis rather than a fair value basis, the total amounts included would have been as follows:
