Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
New Homes Quality Board Limited is a private company, limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 13116068 . The registered office is 86-90 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NE.
2. Statement of Compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A Small Entities "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.
The company has chosen to select partial exemption under FRS102 1A Small Companies Regime Paragraph 3.1B for the exemption of presenting a statement of cashflows.
3. Accounting Policies
3.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
3.2. Going Concern Disclosure
The directors have assessed the going concern status. Their assessment considered the NHQB's strategy, balance sheet and capital requirements. The directors have prepared forecasts for a period in excess of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. These forecasts and projections show that the company is expected to be able to operate within the levels of its current facilities. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual report and financial statements.
3.3. Significant judgements and estimations
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical information and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. A material judgement in the accounts is made on the recognition of revenue per the revenue recognition note.
3.4. Turnover
The organisation's revenue comes from the fees it charges to developers.
Fees received from developers are to be spread over the period to which they relate equally.
3.5. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Other Intangible
The board considers costs incurred in the creation and ongoing development of the organisation's website and CRM system to be expenditure and have opted not to capitalise and amortise such costs.
3.6. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Office equipment 33.33% straight line
3.7. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
3.8. Taxation
The main objective of the company’s business is for the public benefit to reform the quality of the development of new homes. This activity is not carried on with a view to creating a profit as enshrined in the articles and the activity does not meet any other of the commonly established badges of trade as set out in Business Income Manual BIM20200. 
To perform the main company objective, NHQB receives its main income in the form of developers’ fees.
NHQB's Corporation Tax Liability has been calculated based on the following approach:
Income from developers’ fees is treated as non-trading activity and exempt from corporation tax.
Other income which is not income from developers’ fees (income from accredited suppliers and interest received) will be subject to corporation tax.

3.9. Provisions and Contingencies
Provisions
Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives the company a legal or constructive obligation that probably requires settlement by a transfer of economic benefit, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are charged to the profit and loss in the year that the company becomes aware of the obligation, and are measured at the best estimate at the Balance sheet date of the expenditure required to settle the obligation, taking into account relevant risks and uncertainties.
When payments are eventually made, they are charged to the provision carried in the Balance sheet.
3.10. Pensions
A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
3.11. Trade Debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. The company subsequently considers the recoverable value of the trade debtors. When assessing impairment of trade debtors, management considers factors including the current credit rating of the debtor, the ageing profile of debtors and historical experience.
3.12. Borrowings
Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at transaction price, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the income and expenditure account over the period of the relevant borrowing.
Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
3.13. Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
