1.3
Income and expenditure

Income mainly comprises income derived from the BID levy payable by the BID members for the period to 31 March, together with other contributions from landowners and excludes Value Added Tax. BID revenue is recognised as earned over time so that the amount of revenue reflects the actual right to consideration by reference to the period of the business rates levy covered.

BID revenue is measured at the fair value of the right to consideration, which represents amounts chargeable to the local authority. BID revenue not received is included in debtors, revenue received in excess of the relevant amount would be deferred to future periods to which it relates and included in deferred income within creditors.

Other income is received from ancillary activities and investment income that is wholly applied in furtherance of the BID objectives.

1.4
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:

Plant and equipment
20% straight line on cost
Computers
50% straight line on cost

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to surplus or deficit.

1.5
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
