| BRAID CONSTRUCTION & INTERIORS LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 04702071) |
| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Braid Construction and Interiors Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales. The address of the company's registered office is 10 The Braid, Chesham, Buckinghamshire, HP5 3LU. The registered number is 04702071. |
| The presentation currency of these financial statements is Sterling (£), being the currency of the primary economic market in which the entity operates. All amounts in these financial statements have been rounded to the nearest pound unless stated otherwise. |
| The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| The directors have assessed expected future cashflows, giving due consideration to all relevant factors affecting the company. The directors have considered the potential impact on the company as well as its capital resources and believe that the company has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements. Consequently, the company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of VAT and trade discounts. The policies adopted for the recognition of turnover are as follows: |
| Turnover from construction and service activities |
| Turnover from construction and service activities represents the value of work carried out during the year, including amounts not invoiced. |
| Where the outcome of individual contracts can be estimated reliably, turnover and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion at the statement of financial position date. Stage of completion is measured by reference to agreements with the customer. |
| Where the outcome of the contracts cannot be reliably estimated, turnover is recognised only to the extent of the contract costs recognised that it is probable will be recoverable. |
| No margin is recognised until the outcome of the contact can be estimated with reasonable certainty. |
| Provision is made for all known or expected losses on individual contracts once such losses are foreseen. |
| Turnover in respect of variations to contracts is recognised when it is probable it will be agreed by the customer. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. |
| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
| Plant and machinery | - reducing balance - 15% |
| Motor vehicles | - reducing balance - 25% |
| Computer equipment | - straight line - 33% |
| Assets are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each statement of financial position date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit or loss account unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks and work in progress are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. |
| Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing stock and work in progress to its present location and condition. Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out basis. Provision is made for damaged, obsolete and slow-moving stock where appropriate. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| 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 future taxable profits. |

| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Assets held under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the statement of financial position. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding lease liability using the effective interest method. The related obligations, net of future finance charges, are included in creditors. |
| Rentals payable under operating leases, where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor, are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| Employee benefits |
| When employees have rendered service to the company, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service. |
| Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year |
| Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at the transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. |
| Loans and borrowings |
| Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment. If an arrangement constitutes a finance transaction it is measured at present value. |
| Employee benefits |
| When employees have rendered service to the company, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service.. |
| Financial instruments |
| Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
| Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments (including share capital) are equivalent to a similar debt instrument, those financial instruments are classified as financial liabilities. Financial liabilities are presented as such in the statement of financial position. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to financial liabilities are included in the profit and loss account. Financial costs are calculated so as to produce a constant rate of return on the outstanding liability. |
| Where contractual terms of share capital do not have any terms meeting the definition of financial liability then this is classified as an equity instrument. Dividends and distributions relating to equity instruments are debited directly to equity. |
