General information

Crucible (No.2) Ltd is a private company limited by shares and is incorporated in Northern Ireland. The registered office is Suite B, 40 Linenhall Street, Belfast, Northern Ireland, BT2 8BA.

The principal activity of the Company is that of a holding company.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

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 preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).

The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£).

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
 

  
2.2

Exemption from preparing consolidated financial statements

The Company is exempt from preparing consolidated financial statements under Section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 as its results are included in the consolidated financial statements of Crucible (No.1) Ltd. These financial statements are available to the public from Companies House.

 
2.3

Going concern

The directors have assessed that there are adequate resources to meet the ongoing costs of the business for a minimum of 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements. For this reason the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which presumes the realisation of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business.

 
2.4

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

 
2.5

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.

 
2.6

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.

Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

Estimates and judgements are required when applying accounting policies. These are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future, which can involve a high degree of judgement or complexity. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.

In the directors' opinions, there are no significant judgements, estimates and assumptions made about the recognition of assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses.
