1.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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 on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention.

Related party exemption

The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

The company is subsidiary of Langham Industries Limited. Consolidated financial statements of Langham Industries Limited can be obtained from:

Companies House

Revenue

Revenue represents sales at invoice value less trade discounts allowed and excluding value added tax. Revenue is recognised upon despatch of goods.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment assets are held at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its useful economic life.

Leasehold improvements

- 10% on cost

Plant and equipment

- 10% to 20% on cost

Vehicles

- 20% on cost

The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjustment as appropriate, at the end of each financial year.

Financial instruments

The company has chosen to adopt the Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of financial instruments.

Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

At the end of each reporting period financial assets measured at amortised cost are assessed for objective evidence of impairment. If an asset is impaired the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in the income statement.

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans, loans from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred 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 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 statement of financial position date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position 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.

Research and development

Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.

Foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the financial reporting date. Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to sterling at the exchange rates ruling at the date of transaction. Gains and losses arising in the normal course of trade are included in the income statement.

Leasing commitments

Assets acquired under finance leases are capitalised, with finance charges being written off to the profit and loss account over the term of the agreement. Payments under operating leases are written off to the profit and loss account over the life of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company is a member of the Langham Industries Group Personal Pension Plan. This Plan is a money purchase scheme and contributions payable for the year are charged to the income statement. Assets for the Plan are held in separate trustee administered funds.

Investments

Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less impairment. Entities are not consolidated where the company does not have control.

Amounts recoverable on contract

Revenue is recognised on contracts when the company has obtained a right to consideration. Revenue recognised in this manner is based on an assessment of the fair value of the goods and services provided at the financial reporting date as a proportion of the total value of the contract. Provision is made against unbilled amounts on those contracts where the right to receive payment is contingent on factors outside the control of the company. Unbilled revenue is included in debtors.
