- 3 -
Current tax
Current tax is recognised based on taxable profit for the year, using the tax rates enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between taxable profits and accounting profits. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all such differences; deferred tax assets are recognised only where recovery is probable. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates expected to apply when the timing differences reverse.
1.8
Employee benefits
The company has no employees other than directors. No employee benefits arise.
2
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
