for the Period Ended 30 April 2025

- ## 1. Accounting policies

  Basis of measurement and preparation

  These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

  Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

  Vehicles are bought at end of life, our work will slightly add value but only if in demand. If a vehicle cannot be 'saved' by ourselves, it will likely be scrapped. As we buy vehicles for scrap value, the only depreciation / profit, will be determined by scrap value at time of disposal.

  Valuation information and policy

  We do not value our vehicles / stock as it is very unlikely it will ever be for sale. At events, we occasionally have a few bit of memorabilia for sale and price in relevance to online retailing prices at the time of the event, but do not sell for less than we purchased for. We are a non-profit organisation, so only do it to bring expenditure down slightly.

  Average number of employees during the period | 0 |

  We do not employ any members of staff, we have 'volunteers' who help in the restoration process, however there are no memberships, joining fees or contracts. All help is by friends of directors who share a similar passion for restoring older vehicles. Occasionally, we pay a third party to come in and do larger restoration / diagnosis work on vehicles, however these are not directly employed by Wigan Bus Preservation.

When we buy vehicles, they are at the end of their 'useful' life. We buy them at scrap value, therefore they change very minutely in value across their lifetime with us.
