MACDONALD VENTURES LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 13161412)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the Year Ended 31 JANUARY 2026

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

MacDonald Ventures Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

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.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

Valuation of investments
Listed investments are valued in the balance sheet at market value. The realised gain / ( loss ) in the year on disposals of investments is the difference between the amount at which the investment was valued at the beginning of the year, or cost if purchased during the year, and the sale proceeds. The net gain / (loss) on revaluation and disposal of investments is shown in the income statement.

Debtors
Short-term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment and subsequently measured using amortised cost method which uses the effective interest rate. At each balance sheet date, the directors assess debtors for evidence of indicators of impairment.

Cash at bank
Cash at bank represents the balance in the bank as at the year end.

Creditors
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently 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 balance sheet date.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

4. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 4 (2025 - 4 ) .
