| Adams & Sons Limited is a |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| Turnover is recognised when the goods and services are delivered to the customer. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance |
| Fixtures and fittings - 4% on cost |
| Plant and machinery - 15% on reducing balance |
| Freehold land and buildings are stated at revalued amount less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Revaluation gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income, except to the extent that they reverse a previous revaluation loss or exceed a previous revaluation surplus, when they are recognised in profit or loss. |
| Investment property |
| 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. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing stock to its present location and condition. Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out formula. |
| 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. |

| 2. | 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. |
| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme, contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to the profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
| Funding income |
| Income received relating to the purchase of capital assets has been included as deferred income within creditors, and is being released to the profit and loss account over the life of the assets to which it relates, or as defined in the funding agreement. |
