Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 August 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Carpenter Investments (Vine Street) Ltd is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Turnover
The turnover in the profit & loss account represents revenue recognised on accrued rental contracts in place during the period exclusive of value added tax.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 15% on reducing balance

Tangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, tangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Investment property
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

The Investment Property is initially recognised at cost; cost includes the purchase cost, costs of development to bring the site into use and any other directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently, it is measured at fair value at the reporting date. The surplus or deficit on revaluation is recognised in the profit & loss account.

The fair value surplus and deficits recognised in the profit loss account are non-distributable reserves and are shown separately on the face of the balance sheet as non-distributable retained earnings. The amounts held in non-distributable reserves for the fair value adjustments are shown after providing for deferred taxation.

Financial instruments
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from third parties and loans to and from related parties

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.
