Director's responsibilities:
The financial statements of Rias Old Street Limited (registered number:
|
L G Marks
Director |
The principal accounting policies are summarised below. They have all been applied consistently throughout the financial year and to the preceding financial year, unless otherwise stated.
Rias Old Street Limited (the Company) is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act 2006 and is registered in England and Wales. The address of the Company's registered office is 2nd Floor, 168 Shoreditch High Street, London, E1 6RA, United Kingdom.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain items at fair value, and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ issued by the Financial Reporting Council and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.
The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling which is the functional currency of the Company and rounded to the nearest £.
Despite the company reporting net current liabilities of £12,597,727 (2023: £11,219,700) and net liabilities of £2,722,727 (2023: £3,813,289) as at 31 December 2024, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Included within Creditors: amounts due within one year is an amount of £12,220,079 (2023: £12,360,079) due to the company's immediate parent undertaking, Rias Investments One Limited have confirmed that they will not call for repayment of this sum until the company has sufficient cash reserves to do so, without prejudice to the company's other creditors, and for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements.
For this reason, the director continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
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.
Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.
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:
| Fixtures and fittings |
|
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the Balance Sheet when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the Company intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
