Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
A.B.J. Ecosse Ltd. Registered number SC277291 is a limited by shares company incorporated in Scotland. The Registered Office is 37 Coathill Crescent, Coatbridge, ML5 4DU.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008). 
2.2. Turnover
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of haulage services, net of Value Added Tax. 
2.3. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases: 
Plant & Machinery 25% on reducing balance
Motor Vehicles 25% on reducing balance
Fixtures & Fittings 15% on reducing balance
Computer Equipment 15% on reducing balance
2.4. Leasing and Hire Purchase Contracts
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts are capitalised as tangible fixed assets and are depreciated over their useful lives. Obligations under such agreements are included in the creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the profit and loss account so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period. 
2.5. Stocks and Work in Progress
Work in progress is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 
2.6. Taxation
The charge for taxation takes into account taxation deferred as a result of timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. In general, deferred taxation is recognised in respect of timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. However, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that the directors consider that it is more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted. Deferred taxation is measured on a non-discounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in periods in which the timing differences reverse, based on tax rates and the law enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
2.7. Registrar Filing Requirements
The company has taken advantage of Companies Act 2006 section 444(1) and opted not to file the profit and loss account, directors report, and notes to the financial statements relating to the profit and loss account.
3. Average Number of Employees
Average number of employees during the year, including directors, during the year was as follows:
