Other accounting policies
Investment properties are included in the financial statements at open market value. No depreciation is provided on such property in compliance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities. This departure from Companies Act requirements is necessary to show a true and fair view.
Stocks
Stock and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks.
Taxation
Corporation tax payable is provided on taxable profits at the current rates.
Provision is made for deferred taxation in so far as a liability or asset has arisen as a result of transactions that had occurred by the balance sheet date and have given rise to an obligation to pay more tax in the future, or the right to pay less tax in the future. An asset has not been recognised to the extent that the transfer of economic benefits in the future is uncertain. Deferred tax assets and liabilities recognised have not been discounted.
Foreign Currency
Transactions in foreign currency are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rate ruling at that date. Foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in the income statement. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising in connection with the acquisition of businesses is capitalised and amortised over its estimated economic life to a maximum of 20 years. Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Revaluation Reserve
Surpluses or deficits arising on the revaluation of individual fixed assets other than investment properties are credited or debited to a non-distributible reserve known as the revaluation reserve (see also note 16 ).
Revaluation deficits in excess of the amount of prior revaluation surpluses on the same asset are charged to the profit and loss account.

If the investment properties were sold at their current market value of £1,397,795, tax of £118,348 would become payable.
The land and buildings have not been depreciated as the directors consider that there has been no impairment to the underlying value of these assets. The company has a policy of regular maintenenace and repair and the underlying value is well in excess of the net book value as presently stated.
