Accounting policies |
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention.
These financial statements are presented in Sterling (£).
Turnover recognition
Turnover represents amounts chargeable, net of value added tax, in respect of the sale of goods and services to customers. Turnover is recognised as goods are despatched and as services are provided to customers.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised under the accruals model resulting in income being recognised on a systematic basis over the period in which the related costs are incurred for which the grant is compensating. The income from the scheme is recognised as other income in the profit and loss and timing differences presented as other debtors within the balance sheet.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit and loss account, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
The current tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.
Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors.
Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the Company. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Depreciation of tangible assets
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets less their estimated residual value, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
Short leasehold land and buildings |
2% straight line |
Plant and machinery |
10% - 25% straight line |
Business combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. The consideration for each acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values at acquisition date of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the group in exchange for control of the acquired, plus any costs directly attributable to the business combination. When a business combination agreement provides for an adjustment to the cost of the combination contingent on future events, the group includes the estimated amount of that adjustment in the cost of the combination at the acquisition date if the adjustment is probable and can be measured reliably.
Goodwill
Positive goodwill is capitalised, classified as an asset on the balance sheet and amortised on a straight line basis over its useful economic life. It is reviewed for impairment at the end of the first full financial year following the acquisition and in other periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Amortisation
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their useful life as follows:

Amortisation method and rate |
Goodwill |
20% straight line |

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
Investments
Investments in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Stock
Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
When stock is sold, the carrying amount of such stock is recognised as an expense in the period that the sale is recognised. The amount of any provision in order to reduce stock to estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an expense within cost of sales. The amount of any provision reversal is recognised as a reduction to the expense within cost of sales.
Creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade creditors are classified as current liabilities if the Company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Reserves
Called up share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued.
Profit and loss account includes all current and prior period profits and losses.
Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.

Dividends
Dividends distributed to the company’s shareholders are recognised in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.
Defined contribution pension obligation
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period in which they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
Defined benefit pension obligation
The company makes contributions to the group's defined benefit scheme based on the pension cost across the group as a whole. The company is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the group scheme, and so has accounted for the contributions as if it were a defined contribution scheme.

Pensions
The company contributes to the group’s funded defined benefit pension scheme, in common with certain other subsidiary undertakings of Andrew Industries Limited. The assets of the scheme are separately administered by trustees and independent insurance companies. The last actuarial valuation was performed by a qualified actuary as at 31 March 2019 and indicated that, on the basis of service to date and current salaries, the scheme’s assets were sufficient to meet 100% of its liabilities. It was assumed that the investment return would be 1.73% per annum pre-retirement and 1.73% per annum post retirement, pensionable salaries would increase at the rate of 2.91% per annum and that present and future pensions would increase at the rate of 3.19% per annum.
The total cost of the defined benefit scheme was £nil (2020: £nil).
The pension scheme has closed to future benefit accrual with effect from 31 March 2008 with all active members becoming deferred members at that date.
It was agreed with the trustees that employer contributions to the scheme payable by the group would be £500,000 per annum with effect from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2022. During 2018 however, the parent company made an advance of these contributions totalling £1,681,000. This payment, together with the other assets of the scheme, enabled the trustees to secure an insurance policy designed to match the future pension liabilities of the scheme. During the prior year, the parent company made a further contribution of £400,000 to the cost of the policy. As a result, the annual commitment to pay £500,000 per annum until 31 March 2022 has ceased.
The pension contributions are based on the pension cost across the group as a whole. The company is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the group scheme, and so has accounted for the contributions as if it were a defined contribution scheme as required by Financial Reporting Standard 102. Full disclosure details relating to the pension scheme is made in the financial statements of the parent company.
The company also contributes to money purchase pension schemes for certain employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately to those of the company. The total cost of the money purchase scheme was £41,522 (2019: £29,527).
