1 Accounting Policies
Basis of measurement and preparation of accounts
Turnover policy
Tangible assets depreciation policy
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of each asset less its estimated residual value to the periods expected to benefit from its use at the following rates:
Leasehold improvements - 20% straight line
Computer and office equipment - 33% straight line
Specialist equipment - 20% straight line
Other accounting policies
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Provision is made for obsolete, slow moving or defective items where appropriate.
Long term contracts and work in progress
Amounts recoverable on long term contracts, which are included in debtors as accrued income, are stated at the net sales value of the work done less amounts received as progress payments on account. Excess progress payments are included in creditors as deferred income. Cumulative costs incurred net of amounts transferred to cost of sales, less provision for contingencies and anticipated future losses on contracts, are included as work in progress balances in stock.
Leased assets
Where assets are financed by leasing agreements that give rights approximating to ownership ('finance leases'), the assets are treated as if they had been purchased outright. The amount capitalised is the present value of the minimum lease payments payable during the lease term. The corresponding leasing commitments are shown as payable to the lessor. Depreciation on the relevant assets is charged to the profit and loss account.
Lease payments are analysed between capital and interest components so that the interest element of the payment is charged to the profit and loss account over the period of the lease and represents a constant proportion of the balance of capital repayments outstanding. The capital part reduces the amounts payable to the lessor.
All other leases are treated as operating leases. Their annual rentals are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Pensions
Contributions made by the company to money purchase pension schemes are charged to the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate. Differences between contributions payable in the period and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.
Foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are reported at the rates of exchange prevailing at that date. All exchange differences are included in the profit and loss account.
