2.Accounting policies
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
Revenue is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for construction and property management services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT.
Revenue comprises the following items:
* Remuneration for property management services which is recognised at cost plus an estimated markup, in line with when the related services are provided.
* Recharges of utility costs, reception charges, management charges and other operating costs on which an estimated markup is applied, recognised in line with when the associated costs are incurred.
* Profit uplift applied to construction costs, which is recognised in the period in which the associated construction costs are incurred.
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the year in which they are incurred.
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

|
Tangible fixed assets (continued)
|
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, as follows.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.
|
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
The company has entered into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or in case of an out-right short-term loan that is not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, initially at the present value of future cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost, unless it qualifies as a loan from a director in the case of a small company, or a public benefit entity concessionary loan.
The company holds a financial asset which falls under the scope of being a service concession arrangement, whereby the company has contracted with a public sector customer (the ‘grantor’). Under this concession contract, the company (the ‘operator’) has constructed a health centre which is being leased to the grantor under a 25 year lease.
Pursuant to section 34 of FRS 102, such infrastructure is not recognised within property, plant and equipment because the arrangement does not convey the right to control the use of the public service assets to the operator. Instead the infrastructure is held within financial assets, under the financial asset model.
The financial asset model applies when the operator has an unconditional contractual right to receive a specified or determinable amount of cash from the grantor in return for constructing the infrastructure assets and then operating and maintaining the assets for a specified period of time. The operator initially recognises the financial asset at fair value for the consideration received or receivable, based on the fair value of the construction services provided. Thereafter, it accounts for the financial asset in accordance with Section 11 Basic Financial Instruments and Section 12 Other Financial Instruments Issues.

Judgments in applying accounting policies 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.
Critical judgements
The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.
Financial assets - Classification
The service concession arrangement undertaken by the company is considered to fall within the scope of section 34 of FRS102, as described in the accounting policies. This judgement has been based upon consideration of the nature and terms of the lease agreement, with the directors concluding the following conditions apply:
* The grantor controls or regulates what services the operator must provide using the infrastructure assets, to whom, and at what price; and
* The grantor controls, through ownership, beneficial entitlement or otherwise, any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the term of the agreement.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows.
Financial assets - Valuation
There are a number of significant estimates made in respect of the financial asset:
RPI index – The finance asset is calculated assuming a predicted level of RPI increases for future receipts and expenditure. The RPI estimate has been benchmarked against historical data available from the Office of National Statistics, however future projections carry a degree of uncertainty given the nature of RPI.
Future lifecyle maintenance (LCM) costs – Under the lease there is an obligation to maintain and repair the building to a defined standard over the lease term. The finance asset is calculated using an estimate of the cost of future repairs, capital expenditure and maintenance to meet these obligations. The anticipated costs have been profiled to fall due over the lease term to recognise some costs will not be required annually and contain assumptions for capital and operational costs. There is an overall trend of costs increasing as the lease progresses.

3.Judgments in applying accounting policies (continued)
Senior debt - Valuation
The terms of the Senior Debt include an interest rate linked to inflation . An effective interest charge is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, rather than actual interest paid. The effective interest rate is based on estimated future cash flows, including the interest rate linked to inflation. The inflation estimate has been benchmarked against historical data available from the Office of National Statistics, however future projections carry a degree of uncertainty given its nature.
