1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Cogent Elliott Investments Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

2.	STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

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.

3.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

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 represents property rental income and administration recharges and is recognised on a straight line basis in line with agreements in place.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are recognised at cost and subsequently measured under the historical cost model being cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes any direct expenditure incurred to bring the asset to its current location and condition necessary for the asset to work as intended by management.

Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation is provided on the cost of tangible assets in equal annual instalments over their estimated useful lives, which are as follows :

Short leasehold property

- 10 years

Fixtures and equipment

- Between 3 and 5 years

Any gains and losses on the disposal of tangible fixed assets are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the year that the disposal takes place.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at its most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

The most recent valuation uses the rental yield method of valuation. It is based on an equivalent yield of 8% to 8.5% and market evidence for similar property transactions.

Financial instruments

Basic financial instruments in 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 Statement of Comprehensive Income in other administrative expenses.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, 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 the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period to which they relate. A defined contribution plan is a pension scheme under which the company pays fixed contributions into an independently administered fund and has no further obligations once the contributions have been paid.

Leases

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
