| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Granted Consultancy Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| The financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern given that subsequent to the year end, the directors plan to hive up the trade and assets to Ryan Tax Services UK Limited as part of the group's restructuring process. Following this the company will cease to trade as an individual entity. |
| Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| In the application of the company accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
| The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. |
| Critical judgements |
| The following judgement (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements. |
| Share-based payments |
| The company assessed that it is not probable that vesting will occur during the service period. Vesting of these options is contingent on a qualifying liquidity event, including an initial public offering. When assessing the probability, the directors have considered the factors and likelihood of the share options vesting. As a result no expense has been recognised in the financial statements in relation to the share options held by employees. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Turnover |
| The Company performs services for clients under engagement specific contracts and receives a commission in exchange. Such contracts generally specify the agreed upon scope of the engagement, the time periods covered by the engagement, the client's responsibility in providing information to and cooperating with the Company, and the commission fee payable to the Company. |
| Turnover from contracts which are generated from grant writing recognises the stage of completion when the grant claim has been submitted to the client. Fees are based on the specific contract with the customer. |
| Turnover from contracts which are generated from success fees recognises the stage of completion when the customer has passed all the steps required to obtain the grant. Fees are calculated on a percentage of the total grant received. |
| Turnover from service project contracts are recognised at the stage the service is being provided. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. |
| Depreciation is recognized so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: Computers 30% reducing balance. |
| The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to the profit or loss. |
| 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. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| 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. |
| Hire purchase and 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 pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| Share-based payments |
| An equity-settled share-based payment expense is measured at the fair value of goods or services received, unless that cannot be reliably estimated, in which case the fair value of the equity instruments granted is used. The fair value of equity instruments is measured at the grant date, for transaction with employees, or otherwise at the date that goods or services are received. Employee service conditions and non-market performance conditions are not considered in the fair value calculation but are considered for each period when estimating the number of equity instruments expected to vest. At each statement of financial position date, the company revises its estimates of the number of options expected to vest. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in profit or loss, with a corresponding adjustment to equity termed a share option reserve. |
| Employee benefits |
| The cost of unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received. |

Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in Note 2. |
