| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Fordley Land Company Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is represented by: |
| Investment income - Rents receivable, including service charge and contributions to buildings insurance: |
| Rents under operating leases are credited to the profit and loss account over the length of the lease. Rentals received in advance by the company that are attributable to later periods are deferred and included in creditors, (deferred income), and are credited to the profit and loss account in those later periods. Rentals received in a later period that are attributable to the current period are included in debtors, (accrued income). |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Computer equipment | - |
| Investment property |
| Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Investment property for which fair value can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort is measured at fair value at each reporting date. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss and at each reporting date is transferred, net of deferred tax, from retained earnings to a non-distributable fair value reserve. |
| Investment property is subject to valuation by the directors or by external valuers, determined on the fair value basis using the market approach: based on market transactions involving identical or similar assets. |
| No depreciation is provided for in respect of investment properties in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". Such properties are held for their investment potential and for consumption within the business. This is a departure from the Companies Act 2006, which requires all properties to be depreciated. The directors consider that to depreciate them would not enable the financial statements to give a true and fair view. |
| Financial instruments |
| Financial instruments are classified and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences residual interest in the assets of the company after deduction any liabilities. |
| 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 profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. |

| 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. |
| Operating lease income |
| The company acts as a lessor, renting out investment properties to tenants. Rentals receivable under operating leases are credited to the profit and loss account over the lives of the leases and are included in turnover. Certain expenses incurred in earning rental income are charged separately to the profit and loss account. |
| The gross cost of assets held for use in operating leases is included in investment property. |
| Impairment |
| Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease. |
