Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2024
2.Significant accounting policies (continued)
Tangible 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.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price less any impairment.

Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with financial institutions
repayable without penalty on notice and other short term highly liquid investments with original maturity of 3
months or less and bank overdrafts.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial
assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, and
loans to related parties.

Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty
|
In the application of the companies accounting policies, which are described in note 2, the directors are required to
make judgments, estimates and assumptions which affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the
period-end date and amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the period. The estimates and associated
assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. However, the
nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates.
There were no significant estimates or judgements made in the year.
