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.

Revenue

Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:

- the company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer;

- the company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with

ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;

- the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;

- it is probable that the company will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and

- the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure 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.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using both the straight-line method and a reducing balance basis.

Depreciation is provided at the following rates:

Fixtures and fittings

- 25% reducing balance

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

Stock

Stock is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the cost of purchase on a first in, first out basis.

At each balance sheet date, stock is assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply Section 11 "Basic Financial Instruments" of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, including trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment provision. Where an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, whereby payment is deferred beyond normal business terms, it is measured at the present value of future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Discounting is omitted where the effect is immaterial.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets are assessed for impairment at each reporting date. An impairment loss arises where events subsequent to initial recognition indicate that estimated future cash flows have been adversely affected, and is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of future cash flows at the original effective interest rate. Where the indicators of impairment subsequently reverse, the impairment loss may be reversed up to the original carrying amount, and is recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of their contractual arrangements. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deduction of all its liabilities.

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables and bank and other loans, are initially measured at transaction price after transaction costs, or where a financing transaction exists, at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Discounting is omitted where the effect is immaterial. All debt instruments, including trade payables, are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Trade payables are classified as current liabilities where payment is due within one year, and as non-current liabilities otherwise.

Derecognition of financial instruments

Financial assets are derecognised when contractual rights to future cash flows expire, are settled, or when the asset and substantially all risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party. Where significant risks and rewards are retained, the relevant portion continues to be recognised. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the related contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire.

Taxation

Taxation for the period comprises current 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 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.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

Defined contribution pension plan

The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

Debtors

Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are 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.

Creditors

Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method
