Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 September 2025

1. | Accounting policies
--- | ---

| Statutory information
--- | ---
| The Draft Writers Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England within the United Kingdom. The registration number and the address of the registered office is given in the company information on page 1 of these financial statements. The company's principle place of business is the same as registered address.

| Statement of compliance
--- | ---
| The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland including Section 1A Small Entities. The financial statements cover the individual entity, are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the company and are rounded to the nearest round.

| Basis of preparation
--- | ---
| The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102 1A (this is the company's first time adoption and there is no transition adjustment to report), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.

| Revenue from rendering of services
--- | ---
| Revenue from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably.

| Employee benefits
--- | ---
| Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for the employee's services to the company. Where employees have accrued short-term benefits which the entity has not paid by the balance sheet date, an accrual is recognised within creditors: amounts falling due within one year together with an associated expense in profit or loss. The liabilities are classified as current obligations in the statement of financial position because they are expected to be settled wholly within twelve months after the end of the period.

| Current taxation
--- | ---
| Current tax is recognised in profit or loss, except for taxes related to revaluations of land and buildings which are recognised in other comprehensive income. Current tax represents the amount of tax payable (receivable) in respect of taxable profit (loss) for the current, or past, reporting periods. Current tax is measured at the amount expected to be paid (recovered) using the tax rates and laws which have been enacted, or substantively enacted, by the balance sheet date. Where payments to HM Revenue and Customs exceed liabilities owed, an asset is recognised to the extent of the amount of tax recoverable.

| Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
--- | ---
| All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. Property, plant and equipment is used in the company's principal activity for the production and supply of goods or for administrative purposes and is stated in the balance sheet under the historic cost model. This model requires the assets to be stated at cost less amounts in respect of depreciation and less any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value (which is the expected amount that would currently be obtained from disposal of an asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life), over the useful economic life of the respective asset as follows:

|  | Straight line (years)
| Fixtures and fittings | 5
| Office Equipment | 3

| Trade and other debtors
--- | ---
| Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.

| Trade and other creditors
--- | ---
| Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
