Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when goods have been delivered to customers such that risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to them. Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs.
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax arises as a result of including items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods different from those in which they are included in the company's accounts. Deferred tax is provided in full on timing differences which result in an obligation to pay more (or less) tax at a future date, at the average tax rates that are expected to apply when the timing differences reverse, based on current tax rates and laws. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

DECOY MEDIA LTD Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 October 2025
Going concern
The management has assessed the company's ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future, typically at least twelve months from the date of the financial statements. This assessment is based on the company's current financial position, operational performance, cash flow forecasts, and available credit facilities. The company's financial statements reflect the ongoing operations of the business and the ability to meet its financial obligations as they become due. In making this assessment, management has made certain assumptions about future performance, including market conditions, economic trends, and the company's ability to execute its strategic plans. Management continuously monitors and evaluates potential risks and uncertainties that could impact the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Appropriate actions will be taken to mitigate these risks if necessary. Any material uncertainties or events that could cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern are disclosed in the financial statements. Based on the assessment conducted, management concludes that the company is a going concern and will continue to operate in the foreseeable future.
Debtors
The company's sales terms and conditions, including payment terms, discounts for early payment, and penalties for late payment, are clearly communicated to customers. Invoices are issued promptly upon delivery of goods or completion of services. They include detailed information about the products or services provided, payment terms, and contact information. The company has established collection procedures to follow up on overdue accounts. These procedures include sending reminders, making collection calls, and escalating to legal action if necessary. The company monitors its accounts receivable aging regularly to identify any potential issues or trends. Reports on aging receivables, bad debts, and collection efforts are reviewed by management to assess the effectiveness of credit policies and collection procedures. The debtor policy complies with relevant accounting standards and regulations regarding the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of accounts receivable and bad debts.
Creditors
Purchases are made through a formal purchase order process that specifies the goods or services required, quantities, prices, and delivery terms. Purchase orders are approved according to predefined authorization levels. Invoices received from suppliers are verified against purchase orders and receiving documents to ensure accuracy and completeness. Discrepancies are resolved promptly with the supplier. Payments to creditors are made in accordance with agreed-upon credit terms. Payments are processed and approved following established procedures, including segregation of duties to prevent unauthorized payments. The company manages its cash flow to ensure timely payment of creditors while optimizing cash utilization and working capital efficiency. The creditors policy complies with relevant accounting standards and regulations regarding the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of accounts payable in financial statements.
Cash at bank and in hand
The company establishes and maintains relationships with reputable financial institutions for its banking needs. These relationships include maintaining operating accounts, investment accounts, and credit facilities as necessary. Bank reconciliations are performed regularly to reconcile cash balances in the company's records with bank statements. Any discrepancies are investigated and resolved promptly. If applicable, procedures for managing petty cash funds are established, including guidelines for reimbursement, documentation of expenses, and periodic reconciliations. The cash at bank and in hand policy complies with relevant accounting standards and regulations regarding the recording, reconciliation, and reporting of cash balances in financial statements. All cash transactions, including bank statements, reconciliations, and supporting documentation, are properly documented and retained as part of the company's financial records.
