The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and 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 presentation currency is £ sterling.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Although funds are running low, the Board have taken steps to minimise expenditure were appropriate. Any shortfall will be due from the Owners.
2.2.
Significant judgements and estimations
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
2.3.
Turnover
Turnover comprises amounts receivable in respect of services provided. Income is recognised in the period when the service is provided. The resulting surplus for the year must agree to the Fund for Future Maintenance contribution budget, as set by an external surveyor and agreed with the Board. This is then transferred to the Fund for Future Maintenance. Any additional surplus over the contribution budget will be due back to the owners and any deficit under the contribution budget must be made good by the owners in line with the lease. These are recognised in the period they relate too.
2.4.
Stocks and Work in Progress
Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

Financial Instruments - continued
Classification
The following assets and liabilities are classified as financial instruments - trade debtors, trade creditors, other debtors and other creditors.
Trade Debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from owners for services performed in the ordinary course of business. Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

For The Year Ended 31 March 2025
Trade Creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods and 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.
Allocation of surpluses and deficits
Ownership at Financial Year End
Any surplus or deficit arising during the financial year is allocated to the registered leaseholder as at the financial year end.
Change of Ownership During the Financial Year
Where a change in ownership occurs during the financial year, any surplus or deficit for that year is apportioned between the outgoing and incoming leaseholders on a time basis, having regard to the period of ownership.
Change of Ownership After the Year End
Where ownership changes after the financial year end, but before any distribution or recovery of surpluses or deficits, the entitlement or liability remains with the leaseholder on record at the financial year end.
Uncontactable Former Owners
In circumstances where a surplus/deficit is due to/from a former leaseholder who has since disposed of the lease and cannot be located, the amount shall be transferred to the Fund for Future Maintenance.
New Owners
A leaseholder who acquired an apartment after the financial year end are not entitled to surpluses nor liable for deficits relating to that financial year. Such leaseholders are subject only to surpluses or deficits arising in subsequent financial years during which they hold ownership of the lease.
Recognition and measurement
Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the income & expenditure account.

The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Current tax is recognised in profit or loss for the year, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case current tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
