Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Significant judgements and estimates

The company is not subject to any significant judgements or estimates.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration receivable net of VAT and trade discounts. The polices adopted for the recognition of turnover are as follows:-

Sales of Goods

Turnover from the sale of caravans, motorhomes and accessories is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer, the amount of turnover can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the cost incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. This is usually on dispatch of the goods.

Interest, commission and rent received

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. Commission and rent receivable is recognised as the company's right to receive payment is established.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes cost directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each assets on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows:-

Freehold Buildings

3% on cost less residual value

Portable buildings

5 years straight line

Plant and machinery

15% reducing balance

Fixtures and Fittings

15% reducing balance

Motor vehicles

15% reducing balance

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Stocks

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.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Basic financial instruments

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses.

There is an interest free secured stocking plan facility which is under normal industry standard terms.

The company does not have any other basic financial instruments.
