2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The M.A.C. Solutions (UK) Ltd and Pantek Ltd Board remains committed to investing in the ProcessVue area of the business as set out in both the 3 year and annual business plan. We have costed the investment for the next twelve months considering 3 scenarios including a worst case where the business would perform at a similar level to 2023 and 2024 requiring investment support at the £1.2M level. We are comfortable that this is affordable without placing undue strain on other areas of our business. Whilst we remain committed to this investment we are happy that the carrying value of goodwill is appropriate and not suggest any impairment review at this time. |
Given the above comments, as directors of the Pantek group, we can confirm that we will support M.A.C. Solutions Ltd for at least the 12 month period following the approval and finalisation of the financial statements of the group. |
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about M.A.C. Solutions (UK) Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group.

Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: |
Sale of goods |
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer and the company retains no ownership or effective control over the goods sold. |
Long term licensing contracts |
Revenue from licensing contracts is calculated as the proportion of total contract value which costs incurred to date bear to total expected costs for that contract. Revenues derived from variations on contracts are recognised only when they have been accepted by the customer. Full provision is made for losses on all contracts in the year in which they are first foreseen. |
Long term support contracts |
Long term support contract revenue is recognised on a straight line basis over the period of the contract. |
Recoverability of trade debtors |
The company establishes a provision for trade debtors that are estimated not to be recoverable. When assessing recoverability the directors consider factors such as the aging of the trade debtors, past experience of recoverability and the credit profile of individual or groups of customers. |
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. |
Licenses and intellectual property are being amortised evenly over their estimated lives as follows: |
Licenses | - | 3 years or over life of license if shorter |
Intellectual property | - | 20 years |
Assessing indicators of impairment |
In assessing whether there have been any indicators of impairment of assets, the directors have considered both external and internal sources of information such as market conditions, counterparty credit ratings and experience of recoverability. There have been no indicators of impairments identified during the current financial year. |

Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. |
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, as described below. |
Fixtures and fittings | - | 20% on cost |
Computer equipment | - | 33% on cost |
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss. |
Determining residual values of tangible assets |
Judgement is applied by management when determining the residual values for fixed assets. When determining the residual value management aim to assess the amount that the company would currently obtain for the disposal of the asset, if it were already of the condition expected at the end of its useful economic life. Where possible this is done with reference to external market prices. |
Estimated useful life of tangible assets |
The company depreciates tangible assets over their estimated useful lives. The estimation of the useful lives of tangible assets is based on historic performance as well as expectations about future use and therefore requires estimates and assumptions to be applied. The actual lives of these assets can vary depending on a variety of factors, including technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes. |
Investments in subsidiaries |
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost. |
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment, being any excess of the carrying amount held stocks over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss, and any subsequent reversal, is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, 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. |
Research and development |
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred. |

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
