The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Rental income represents amounts receivable from tenants under operating lease agreements in respect of properties let by the Company.

Rental income is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Where rent-free periods, rent reviews or other lease incentives apply, the resulting rental income is recognised evenly over the lease term.

Rental income excludes amounts collected from tenants on behalf of third parties and amounts relating to services provided to tenants, which are recognised separately as applicable.

Rental income receivable in respect of the reporting period is recognised as income, with amounts received in advance recognised as deferred income and amounts accrued but not yet received recognised as accrued income.

Where amounts due from tenants are considered irrecoverable or subject to significant doubt, an appropriate impairment loss is recognised.

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

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours

The company only enters into basic financial instruments that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors and loans to / from related parties.

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 balance sheet date.

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 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.

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans 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.

Creditors

Short term creditors are measured at transaction price. Other financial liabilities are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
