Accounting policies |
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006 (as applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime).
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
These financial statements are prepared in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £1.
Departures from Companies Act requirements
|
The company has properties held for long-term investment. No depreciation is provided in respect of investment properties. This treatment may be a departure from the requirements of the Companies Act concerning the depreciation of fixed assets. However these properties are not held for consumption but for investment and the directors consider that systematic annual depreciation would be inappropriate. The accounting policy adopted is therefore necessary for the financial statements to give a true and fair view. |

Accounting policies (continued) |
Revenue recognition
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for commissions, property sales and rental income in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of value added tax and discounts.
The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the United Kingdom.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between taxable profits and profits reported in the financial statements. It is provided at current rates on unrealised gains on revaluation of the investment property.
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.
Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
|
Freehold land and buildings |
2% on cost |
|
Investment property |
nil provision |
|
Furniture, fittings and equipment |
20% on reducing balance |
|
Computer equipment |
3 years on cost |
Investment property
Operating leases are classified as investment property when there is no intention to sell in the foreseeable future.
Investments
Investments are in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where fair value cannot be measured reliably and are measured at cost less impairment.

Stocks
Stocks of stationery are stated at cost. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
Dividends
Dividend distribution to the company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.
Financial instruments
Classification
Basic financial instruments are defined as one of the following:
- cash
- a debt instrument (such as accounts receivable and payable)
- commitment to receive a loan that satisfy certain criteria
- investments in non-convertible preference shares, and non puttable ordinary shares.
All other financial instruments are classed as other financial instruments and treated accordingly.
