Taxation
|
|
|
|
Taxation for the period comprises current and deferred taxation. Tax is recognised in the Profit and loss account, 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 taxation
|
|
|
|
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 been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date 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 probably that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Leases
|
|
|
|
On commencement of a lease, the company recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present value of the lease payments which have not yet been made and subsequently measured under the amortised cost method. The initial cost of the right-of-use asset comprises the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, lease payments made prior to the lease commencement date, initial direct costs and the estimated costs of removing or dismantling the underlying asset per the conditions of the contract.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Where ownership of the right-of-use asset transfers to the lessee at the end of the lease term, the right- of-use asset is depreciated over the asset’s remaining useful life. If ownership of the right-of-use asset does not transfer to the lessee at the end of the lease term, depreciation is charged over the shorter of the useful life of the right-of-use asset and the lease term.

Retirement benefits
|
|
|
|
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company’s pension scheme are charged to profit and loss in the period to which they relate.
