Accounting policies
Company information
Union Property Development Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is c/o Union Property Services Ltd, Cobalt 3.2 Silver Fox Way, Cobalt Business Park, Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear, NE27 0QJ.
1.1
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 UK sterling which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £1.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include investment properties at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
The company has taken advantage of the exemption under section 399 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated accounts, on the basis that the group of which this is the parent qualifies as a small group. The financial statements present information about the company as an individual entity and not about its group.
1.2
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which, in the opinion of the directors, is the appropriate basis. The company's ability to continue trading is dependent upon the ongoing support of its bankers, its directors and shareholders and other related parties. In the event that the company is unable to continue trading, adjustments would have to be made to reduce the value of assets to their recoverable amount.true
1.3
Turnover
Turnover is recognised as follows:-
Sales of development properties are recognised on legal completion (exclusive of VAT where there are options to tax on properties).
Sales of property development services (net of Value Added Tax) are recognised at the completion of each appropriate stage of the contract.
Rents receivable are recognised in accordance with the underlying property leases and exclusive of Value Added Tax where there are options to tax on properties. Lease incentives (such as rent free periods) are spread over the entire period of the lease.
1.4
Investment properties
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.
The methods and significant assumptions used to ascertain the fair value of £4,920,000 and fair value movement of £570,000 credited to profit/loss for the year are as follows:
The investment property is valued at fair value based on a valuation performed in September 2025 by Lambert Smith Hampton, a registered RICS valuer.

1.5
Fixed asset investments
Interests in subsidiaries are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
1.6
Impairment of assets
Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease.
1.7
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 and deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.
Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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.
1.8
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount can be reliably estimated.
1.9
Leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
1.10
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 transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses.
1.11
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.
