(b)

1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

FastRailTicketing Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

When preparing financial statements, directors shall make an assessment of the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Financial statements shall be prepared on a going concern basis unless director either intends to liquidate the entity or to cease trading, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The directors have formed the judgement, at the time of approving the financial statements, that the company has sufficient access to financial resources which, together with internally generated cash flows, will continue to provide sufficient sources of liquidity to fund its current operations including its contractual and commercial commitments.

For reasons mentioned, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at their fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services supplied within the United Kingdom in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other related taxes.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Improvements to property

-

in accordance with the property

All assets are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of an asset initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost consists of all costs of purchase, costs of conversion, design costs and other costs incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. For stocks relating to rail tickets and related consumables, cost is determined using a first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Where necessary, provision is made to reduce cost to no more than net realisable value having regard to the nature and condition of inventory, as well as its anticipated utilisation and saleability.

Financial instruments

a) Debtors

Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

b) Creditors

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, loans from third parties and loans from related parties, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Such instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

c) Cash at bank

Cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Cash and bank balances are represented by cash in hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, and other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

Taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax.

Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a change attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:

-

the recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and

-

any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Both current and deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Research and development expenditure

Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

In the event that an internally generated intangible asset arises from the company's development activities then it will be recognised only if all of the following conditions are met:

-

an asset is created that can be identified (such as software and new processes);

-

the project from which the asset arises meets the company's criteria for assessing technicalfeasibility;

-

it is probable that the asset created will generate future economic benefits; and

-

the development cost of the asset can be measured reliably.

Internally generated intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Where no internally generated intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

Release of costs

Research and development expenditure capitalised in accordance with the above policy is written off over the expected life of the project which is between three and five years.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure on capitalised intangible assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure is expensed as incurred.

Pension costs

The company makes payments into personal retirement schemes of certain employees. The contributions payable by the company and the staff are deposited in the respective pension schemes within 30 days following the deduction. Once the contributions have been paid, the company as employer, has no further obligations. The company's contributions are charged to the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

Operating leases

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit or on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.
