Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The Group, of which the Company is a member, relies on an invoice financing arrangement. The directors have no reason to believe that the facilities will not be available for at least the next twelve months. The directors are confident that they could source alternative finance should this be necessary.
Provision has been made for all known claims against the Group, in accordance with the policies set out in the notes to the financial statements (note 7). The Group continues to monitor and work closely with its insurers to ensure the impact on the Group is kept to a minimum. The timing and amount of such claims are in many instances uncertain. However, the directors are of the opinion that all future liabilities can be met, based upon current estimates. The Company also has continued financial support from the wider Group.
Based upon the above, the directors consider the going concern basis remains appropriate for the preparation of the financial statements.
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:
Rendering of services
The Company recognises revenue when invoices are raised to, or when consideration is measured as receivable from, customers. Invoices may be raised in the same period in which the service took place, or subsequently when the value of services can be reliably measured. The level of work is agreed by the customer prior to an invoice being raised.
At the year end an estimated value for the work carried out during the year, recognised by reference to the stage of completion, that is yet to be invoiced is included within turnover and as amounts recoverable on long-term contracts within debtors.
