Financial instruments

Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets, which include trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs.

Financial assets, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each balance sheet date, with any impairment losses being recognised in profit or loss. If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are classified depending on the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into.

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans, finance leases and accruals, are initially recognised at transaction price.

Financial assets and liabilities are derecognised when the company's contractual obligations are settled, cancelled or they expire.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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

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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
