1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Meadow Group Services Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Turnover

Turnover represents the amounts (excluding value added tax) derived from the provision of services to group companies during the year and finance commissions receivable. Services are accounted for in the year in which the services are provided.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation.

Computer software

- 10% on cost

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment loss. 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 provided on all fixed assets to write off the cost less the estimated residual value in annual instalments over their estimated useful lives as follows:-

Motor vehicles

- 25% on cost

Computer equipment

- 25% on cost

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 within 'administrative expenses' in the profit and loss account.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax arises from timing differences that are differences between taxable total profits and total comprehensive income as stated in the financial statements. These timing differences 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.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only when it is more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of underlying timing differences and losses can be deducted.

Provision is made at current rates of taxation deferred in respect of all material timing differences.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations. The contributions are recognised as an expense when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Related parties

The company is a wholly owned subsidiary undertaking of Pentagon Investments Limited. The company has taken advantage of the exemption contained within Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 and has therefore not disclosed transactions with entities which form part of the group, other than as normally disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.
