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 comprises production revenue and non refundable advances on distribution revenue and is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings on delivery of the production to the broadcaster. Where revenue received exceeds costs incurred to date and profits are not anticipated, the balance is treated as deferred income and held on the Statement of Financial Position until further costs are incurred or profits anticipated. At this point the deferred income is released to the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings.
Tax is recognised in the statement of income and retained earnings. The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates income.
The company is eligible to claim a tax credit on animation production costs; the tax credit comprises relief based on total net costs and an additional deduction for enhanceable expenditure. The company claims a payment based on the amount of enhanced expenditure and carries losses arising from total net costs forward against future profits.
Stocks comprise production costs, which are recorded as a current asset. Production costs are amortised to the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings over the period in which rights to the relevant production are being exploited by the Company.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price.
