| BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| TURNOVER |
| Turnover represents the value, excluding value added tax, of goods and services supplied to customers during the year. A sale is recognised when revenue and associated costs can be measured reliably and future economic benefits are probable. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and VAT. |
| TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS |
| Improvements to property | - |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| STOCKS |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
| PENSION COSTS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for the employees of the company. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate. |
| DEBTORS AND CREDITORS RECEIVABLE/PAYABLE WITHIN ONE YEAR |
| Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the income statement in administrative expenses. |

| TAX |
| Current tax represents the amount of tax payable or receivable in respect of the taxable profit (or loss) for the current or past reporting periods. It is measured at the amount expected to be paid or recovered using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
| Deferred tax represents the future tax consequences of transactions and events recognised in the financial statements of current and previous periods. It is recognised in respect of all timing differences, with certain exceptions. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and total comprehensive income as stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. 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. |
| Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date that are expected to apply to the reversal of timing differences. Deferred tax on non-depreciable tangible fixed assets and investment properties is measured using the rates and allowances that apply to the sale of the asset. |
