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.

Turnover

Revenue (described as Turnover) is the amount receivable for services rendered, net of returns, discounts and value added tax. Revenue is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable and is recognised at the point the service is delivered.

Financial instruments

Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently remeasured to amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts, except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, demand deposits with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are shown within current liabilities.

Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at transaction price and are subsequently remeasured to amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.

Going concern

The directors are aware of the current financial position of the entity, however see no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the company to continue trading, therefore they have adopted the going concern basis of accounting.
