NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024
Rarity Properties Limited is a private company, limited by shares, and incorporated in England and Wales. The Company's registered number is 10162868 and registered office address is 24 Heath Road, Weybridge, Surrey, United Kingdom, KT13 8TH.
The Company's principal place of business is The St, Shurlock Row, Reading, England, RG10 0PS.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 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 following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operational existence for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The Company is reliant on the continued financial support of a shareholder of the ultimate parent company in order to continue as a going concern.
The Company has received a letter of support from a shareholder of the ultimate parent company to confirm that additional funding will be provided and letters of support from related company lenders to confirm that debts will not be called for repayment, all for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. The directors consider, whilst recognising this commitment is not legally binding, that it is the shareholder’s intention to continue to provide financial support to the Company as and when required.
The directors having reviewed the latest financial information and projected forecasts, and on the basis that the Company has the continued financial support for its operations, for which they have no reason to believe will not continue, consider that the Company will continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing these financial statements.
Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.
Revenue consists of rental income which is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the lease will flow to the entity and the amount of the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured net of discounts and value added tax.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
|
|
|
Operating leases: the Company as lessor
|
Rental income from operating leases is credited to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Amounts paid and payable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised as a reduction to income over the lease term on a straight-line basis, unless another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern over which the lessor's benefit from the leased asset is diminished.
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
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, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
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.
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
