Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 December 2024

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Financial Reporting Standard 101

    Turnover policy

    Turnover represents the invoiced value of services provided exclusive of value added tax, in respect of holidays taken for departure dates up to the reporting date. Turnover is generated from the sale of a bundled performance obligation, being a holiday package, with a fixed price. Income is not treated as earned until departure date. Income from the rendering of services is recognised in accordance with the stage of completion. Stage of completion is measured by the number of departed nights in a booking that fall in a particular year. Total revenue for a booking is assumed to accrue evenly across each day.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, as shown below: Fixtures and fittings - 10 years Computer equipment - 4 years The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

    Intangible fixed assets amortisation policy

    Externally generated intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is provided on the following basis: Software - 3 - 5 years Software consists of website development costs that have been capitalised to the extent that an enduring asset has been created where future economic benefits are expected to arise.
