1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Keir Morton Sword Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Scotland. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Going Concern

The Company is operating by utilising external sources of finance. The director has confirmed that this support will continue and accordingly, they have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Financial instruments

The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financialassets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties.

Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year) including loans and otheraccounts receivable and payable are initially measured at transaction price adjusted for transactioncosts. They are subsequently recognised at amortised costs using the effective interest method.

Creditors payable within one year, typically trade payables, are measured, initially and subsequently at theundiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid.

Debtors payable within one year, typically trade receivables, are measured initially and subsequently at theundiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be received.

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 statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position 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.

3.	EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 1 (2023 - 1 ) .
