Accounting policies
Company information

Lonach Investments Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Unit 1, St Stephens Court, 15-17 St Stephens Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH2 6LA.

1.1
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

1.2
Going concern

The company meets its day to day working capital requirements through bank loans, commercial lender loans and loans made to the company by its Directors. It is therefore reliant on the continued financial support from the financial institutions and its Directors or the foreseeable future.true

1.3
Turnover

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

1.4
Intangible fixed assets - goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost of a business over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired business. Goodwill is carried at cost less any amounts written off through impairment and has been amortised evenly over its useful life of two years.

1.5
Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Freehold land and buildings
2% on cost
Fixtures and fittings
10% on reducing balance
Website Development
Straight line over 3 years
1.6
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.

1.7
Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after making allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

1.8
Financial instruments

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account.

 

Loans and borrowing are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured as amortised cost using the effective rate of interest method, less impairment.

1.9
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

- 4 -
Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.

 

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account, except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.

1.10
Foreign exchange

Asset and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruing at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result.
