NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025


1	GENERAL INFORMATION

	Dutton Associates Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales. Its registered office is:

	C9 Glyme Court
	Oxford Office Village
	Langford Lane
	Kidlington
	Oxford
	OX5 1LQ

	The financial statements are presented in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the company.

2	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

	Basis of preparation of financial statements

	These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A smaller entities 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' ('FRS 102') and the Companies Act 2006.

	Revenue recognition

	Turnover is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable. It is recognised in respect of management consultancy services provided as soon as there is a right to consideration and is determined by reference to the value of the work performed. Turnover is stated net of trade discounts and value added tax.

	The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably and when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity.


	Tangible fixed assets

	Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

	Depreciation has been provided at the following rate so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less residual value of the assets over their estimated useful lives.

	Office equipment					Straight line basis at 25% per annum
	Computer equipment					Straight line basis at 25% per annum
	Motor vehicles					Reducing balance basis at 20% per annum

	On disposal, the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the item sold is recognised in the profit and loss account, and included within administrative expenses.

2	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued…)

	Financial Instruments

	A financial asset or financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

	The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.

	Where investments in non-derivative financial instruments are publicly traded, or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value through the profit and loss account.

	Basic financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price and measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. They are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any provision for impairment. If the effect of the time value of money is immaterial, they are measured at cost less impairment.

	Basic financial assets and liabilities which are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective impairment at each balance sheet date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss account immediately.

Any reversals of impairment are recognised in the profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset or liability which exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment loss not previously been recognised.


	Financing transactions are measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. They are subsequently measured at amortised costs using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.

2	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued…)

	Impairment of non-financial assets

	At each reporting date non-financial assets not carried at fair value, like goodwill and plant, property and equipment, are reviewed to determine whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any asset or group of related assets (which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less cost to sell) is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If the recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.

	If an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset, or group of related assets, is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not to exceed the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset, or group of related assets, in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account.


	Debtors

	Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

	Creditors

	Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and subsequently at amortised cost.

	Taxation

	Taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current tax and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period.

	A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods based on current tax rates and laws. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period.

	Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. 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 taxable profits.

	Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

	Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

3	CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

	No significant accounting estimates and judgements have had to be made by the director in preparing these financial statements.
