Financial instruments
|
|
|
|
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment. If an arrangement constitutes a finance transaction it is measured at present value.

Taxation
|
|
|
|
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred taxation. Tax is recognised in the Profit and loss account, 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 taxation
|
|
|
|
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 been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date 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 probably that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

|

|
Retirement benefits
|
|
|
|
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company’s pension scheme are charged to profit and loss in the period to which they relate.

Critical accounting judgements and estimates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
