Accounting policies
Company information

Stuart Collins & Co Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 114 Walter Road, Swansea, SA1 5QQ.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Turnover

Turnover represents net commission and fees earned from the arrangement of insurance policies.

1.3
Intangible fixed assets - goodwill

Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of the business, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of twenty years.

1.4
Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures and fittings
25% on cost

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

1.5
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Accounting policies

- 6 -
Deferred tax

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

1.6
Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

1.7

Revenue and expense recognition

It is impracticable to devise accounting policies that consistently match revenue from brokerage with the relevant expenses. Accordingly the following bases are adopted:

 

1. Net retained brokerage

This represents fees and commission received on the arrangement of insurance policies. Net retained brokerage represents brokerage and fees that are (mainly) taken to credit when debit or fee premiums are due from the insured person. Alterations in brokerage arising from return and additional premiums and adjustments are taken into account as and when these occur.

 

2. Expenses

Costs are written off as incurred.

1.8

Insurance debtors and creditors

In the normal course of business, settlement is required to be made with certain markets, market settlement bureaux and insurance intermediaries on the basis of net settlement due to or from the market, bureau or insurance intermediary in question, rather than the amounts due to and from the individual parties, which it represents. Insurance debtors and creditors reflect this basis of settlement.

Employees
