Accounting policies
Company information

AIM Entertainments Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 3rd Floor, The Bloomsbury Building, 10 Bloomsbury Way, Holborn, WC1A 2SL.

1.1
Reporting period

The company year end was shortened from 31 July 2025 to 31 March 2025, a period of less than 12 months, for commercial reasons.

 

The comparative amounts presented in the financial statements, including the related notes, are therefore not entirely comparable.

1.2
Accounting convention

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. 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 financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.3
Prior period error

The directors identified expenses that should not have been included in the prior period accounts and one that was not included. These have been corrected by way of a prior year adjustment and the effect of these adjustments and further details can be seen in note 8.

1.4
Turnover

Turnover is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, and is shown net of VAT.

 

Revenue from contracts for the provision of live performance or personal appearance is recognised based on performance date.

 

Royalty income is recognised on a receivable basis.

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.

1.6
Financial instruments

The company only has financial instruments which are classified as basic financial instruments.

 

Short-term debtors and creditors are measured at the settlement value. Any losses from impairment are recognised in profit and loss.

 

Bank loans are initially recorded at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

1.7
Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.

Current tax

The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.

1.8
Retirement benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Notes to reconciliation
Director remuneration

The directors have identified that £27,000 of remuneration was incorrectly expensed in previous two years' financial statements. There was no PAYE scheme in place for these previous periods and therefore the costs have been reversed.

Pension contributions

The directors have identified £4,000 of pension contributions incorrectly expensed in the prior period financial statements.

Share capital

The directors have identified that the share issued to Sarah Richards (now Sarah Merrygold) on 12 January 2024 was not declared in the prior period financial statements.
