3
Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same accounts.
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Presentation currency
The accounts are presented in £ sterling.
Turnover
Turnover represents commission receivable on travel bookings made through the company, excluding value added tax. Commission is recognised when the company becomes entitled to it, which is when the booking is confirmed by the travel provider.
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible assets are included at cost less depreciation and impairment. Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives:
Fixtures & fittings
18% reducing balance
Computer equipment
18% reducing balance
Pension costs
The company operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. Contributions payable are recognised in the profit and loss account when due.
Prior period adjustment
The comparative balance sheet has been restated to correct errors in the balances reported at 31 March 2025: commission receivable of £100,635 from the company's principal supplier was omitted from trade debtors, the bank loan was overstated by £4,824 and PAYE of £6,775 that had already been paid was included in creditors. The effect is to increase net assets and the profit and loss reserve at 31 March 2025 by £112,234. The corrections have been made against the profit and loss reserve brought forward and there is no effect on the profit for either year.
