Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2024

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

St. Leonards Railway Engineering 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.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


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 as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Turnover
Turnover represents the fair value of consideration received or receivable net of VAT and trade discounts. Revenue from the sale of goods and services is recognised at the point of sale. Any invoices raised after the work has been completed are included in the Income Statement and treated as accrued income.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended by management.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful economic life.

Leasehold property-straight line over 50 years
Plant & machinery-25% on reducing balance
Fixtures & fittings-25% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles -25% on reducing balance

Impairment policy
At each balance sheet date, the company reviews the carrying amount of its assets to determine whether there is any indication that any items have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.

Investment property
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

The year end valuation was carried out by the directors.

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Approximately 90% of the stock is in respect of fuel with the balance comprising other purchases.

Financial instruments
Financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

Leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution 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 in the Income Statement when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are included in the balance sheet at fair value. Adjustments to fair value are recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value has changed. Changes in the fair value are recorded in the profit and loss account.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 13 (2023 - 13 ) .
