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:
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
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.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
|
In the application of the company's accounting policies management is required to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily
ascertainable from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical
experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual outcomes may differ from these
estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on a continuing basis. Revisions to accounting
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised.
The key areas of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the
financial statements are described below:
Prepayments & Accrued Expenditure
The company includes a provision for invoices which are yet to be received from and amounts paid in
advance to suppliers. These provisions are estimated based upon the expected values of the invoices
which are issued and services received following the period end.
