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. The financial statements reflect all transactions including those with, for and on behalf of leaseholders.

Audit report

The Independent Auditor's Report was unqualified. The name of the Senior Statutory Auditor who signed the audit report on 26 September 2025 was Michael Emery ACA, who signed for and on behalf of Michael J Emery & Co Limited.

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for service charges in respect of the property at 30-37 Chesham Place. Turnover is received wholly within the United Kingdom.

Tax

The company's business consists of the management of property on behalf of leaseholders, on a not-for-profit basis. The company is only liable to tax on any non-business sources of income.

 

Chesham Place Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2024

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 countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are stated in the balance sheet 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

Plant and machinery, fixtures and fittings

20% straight line

Computer equipment

25% straight line

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Total cash at bank and in hand includes £805,440 (2023: £972,799) of deposits held on behalf of leaseholders. These monies do not belong to the company and this is represented by a corresponding creditor of £805,440 (2023: £972,799) included in current liabilities.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from leaseholders in respect of service charges yet to be collected.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the directors' estimate of cost.

 

Chesham Place Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2024

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers, including obligations to pay for goods and services acquired for and on behalf of the leaseholders (where the company is acting as an undisclosed agent).

Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Defined contribution pension obligation

Short-term employee benefits and contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

3

Staff numbers

The average number of persons employed by the company during the year, including directors, was 18 (2023 - 20).
