Directors' responsibilities:
The financial statements of Jalet Property Services Ltd (registered number:
|
C L A Slade
Director |
The principal accounting policies are summarised below. They have all been applied consistently throughout the financial period and to the preceding financial year, unless otherwise stated.
Jalet Property Services Ltd (the Company) is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act 2006 and is registered in England and Wales. The address of the Company's registered office is Springfield House, Springfield Road, Horsham, West Sussex, United Kingdom, RH12 2RG, United Kingdom.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain items at fair value, and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ issued by the Financial Reporting Council and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.
The financial statements are presented in pounds sterling which is the functional currency of the Company and rounded to the nearest £1.
The company’s reporting date has been changed from 31 May to 31 July. As a result, the current financial statements cover an extended reporting period of 14 months, from 1 June 2024 to 31 July 2025. The comparative figures relate to the previous financial year, which covered the 12‑month period ended 31 May 2024 and are not entirely comparable.
Prior year adjustments arise from the correction of material errors in the financial statements of prior periods. Material errors include the effects of mathematical mistakes, mistakes in applying accounting policies, oversights, or misinterpretations of facts that existed at the time the financial statements were approved.
Prior year adjustments do not include changes in accounting estimates or changes in accounting policies, which are accounted for prospectively unless otherwise required.
Where a material prior year error is identified, the company will:
- Restate the comparative amounts for the prior period presented in which the error occurred; or
- If the error occurred before the earliest prior period presented, restate the opening balances of assets, liabilities, and equity for the earliest period presented.
The correction of a prior year error is recognised through the adjustment of opening reserves for the earliest comparative period presented.
Full disclosure of the nature of the prior year adjustment and its financial impact on prior periods will be provided in the notes to the financial statements.
Current tax is provided at amounts expected to be paid (or recoverable) using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the Balance Sheet date.
Deferred tax
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 financial statements. 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.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.
Assets, other than those measured at fair value, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each Balance Sheet date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account as described below.
The fair value is determined annually by the directors, on an open market value for existing use basis.
Investments are recognised initially at fair value which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value through profit or loss if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably. Other investments are measured at cost less impairment.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities.
Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the Balance Sheet when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the Company intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Financial assets are derecognised when and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, or the Company transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or the Company, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, 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. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. Interim equity dividends are recognised when paid. Final equity dividends are recognised when approved by the shareholders at an annual general meeting.
During the year, the directors identified several errors arising from the preparation of financial statements in prior periods. These primarily related to:
- Incorrect accounting for intercompany and related party balances, including errors in the reconciliation between entities with differing year ends;
- Recognition of revaluation of investment properties, and the respective deferred taxation on the unrealised gains; and
- Misclassification of certain transactions within the financial statements.
As a result of the above, along with several other matters, corrections have been made to prior period balances. The corrections have been accounted for as prior period adjustments and comparative figures have been restated accordingly. The effect of these adjustments is summarised below:
