Turnover

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Revenue grants
Revenue grants are recognised in income on a systematic basis over the periods in which the related costs, for which the grant is intended to compensate, are recognised.

Theft replacement expenditure and insurance recoveries
Expenditure incurred for the replacement of parts and materials stolen from storage in 2022 are recognised when contracted for.

8. CONTINGENT ASSET

The theft claim for locomotive parts stolen in 2022 has, so far, resulted in the insurers advancing £50,000 on account to the Company to enable it to place orders for replacement items. Total theft replacement expenditure now amounts to £61,454 (of which £22,000 has been funded by a grant from DCRT) and the insurers will not be making any further advances until the final claim is finalised.

Current estimates of the total theft replacement costs are that these could be well over £200,000. The extent to which all replacement costs will be fully covered by insurance remains to be ascertained.
