Notes to the financial statements
Year ended 31 March 2025
1. General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales registration number 05329986 . The address of the registered office is 31-32 Chalkdell Drive, Shenley Wood, Milton Keynes, England, MK5 6LB.
2. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102 ,the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies
The following principal accounting policies have been applied
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.
Consolidation
The company is exempt from preparing consolidated accounts due to the group meeting the criteria for a small group.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods supplied and services rendered, net of discounts and Value Added Tax.
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods); the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.
In the case of long term contracts, turnover is recognised in line with the stage of completion of the project, based upon a review of labour costs incurred to date as a percentage of expected total labour costs. Turnover is then accrued or deferred as appropriate.
Taxation
The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in the Income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other 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. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded in the functional currency, by applying the spot exchange rate as at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date, with any gains or losses being taken to profit or loss.
Operating leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit or loss on a straight line basis over the lease term .
Tangible assets
tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Fittings fixtures and equipment - 33.33 % straight line
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.
Investments
Fixed asset investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Listed investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value being recognised in profit or loss.
Financial instruments
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
Pension
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is apension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once thecontributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.
The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paidare shown in accruals as a liability in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separatelyfrom the Company in independently administered funds.Contributions to defined contribution plans are expensed in the period to which they relate.
