Notes to the Accounts |
for the year ended 31 December 2024 |
|
1 |
Accounting policies |
|
|
Statement of compliance |
|
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 Section 1A and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships’, apart from the approach to investments described below. |
|
|
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. The financial statements are presented in Sterling which is the functional currency of the LLP and rounded to the nearest £. |
|
|
Revenue recognition |
|
The net gain or loss realised on the trading of cryptocurrencies arises from restating cryptocurrencies at their fair value at the balance sheet date. |
|
|
Division of profits |
|
Profits are treated as being available for discretionary division only if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment of the profits of a particular year unless and until the members agree to divide them. Profits are otherwise automatically divided and included under Members’ remuneration charged as an expense in the profit and loss account. |
|
|
Taxation |
|
Taxation is not provided for in the accounts as taxation is the personal liability of the members. Any amounts held by the LLP on behalf of members in respect of their tax liabilities are treated as debts due to members. |
|
|
Financial instruments |
|
The LLP only has financial assets and liabilities that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are measured at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. |
|
|
Investments |
|
Current asset investments comprise cryptocurrencies which are held at fair value, with gains and losses on revaluation taken to the profit and loss account. This is not in accordance with FRS102, but the members believe this treatment results in a better presentation of the LLP’s results and position. |
|
|
Creditors |
|
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Provisions |
|
Provisions (ie liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. |
|
|
Members' capital |
|
Members' capital is classified as debt and not equity if there is a contractual obligation for the LLP to repay the capital to members, even if that obligation is conditional. |
|
|
Foreign currency translation |
|
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recognised at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. At the end of each reporting period foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost are translated at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All differences are charged to profit or loss. |
