Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2022 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Cutlery and Allied Trades Research Association is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The company is a private company limited by guarantee and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the members is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 towards the assets of the company in the event of liquidation. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Freehold property | - |
Plant and machinery | - |
Fixtures and fittings | - |
Motor vehicles | - |
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost. Subsequently, they are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. |
Revaluation of properties |
Individual freehold properties are revalued to fair value every year with the surplus or deficit on book value being transferred to the revaluation reserve, except that a deficit which is in excess of any previously recognised surplus over depreciated cost relating to the same property, or the reversal of such deficit, is charged (or credited) to the income statement. |
Government grants |
Government grants relating to revenue expenditure are recognised in income on a systematic basis over the period in which the company recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. |
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Financial instruments |
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the asset of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
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. |
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. |
Research and development |
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred. |
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
The interest element of these obligations is charged to surplus or deficit over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability. |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to surplus or deficit on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
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 profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |

Included in cost or valuation of land and buildings is freehold land of £ 44,655 (2021 - £ 44,655 ) which is not depreciated. |
Revaluation |
The fair value of the company's land and buildings was assessed at 31 December 2019 by the directors. The basis of this valuation was open market value. Had this class of asset been measured on a historical cost basis, the carrying amount would have been £25,590 (2021 - £26,886). The directors consider that there has been no material change in the fair value at 31 December 2022. |

FRS102 requires that the right to use an asset held under a finance lease is recognised in the financial statements as an asset, and a liability is recognised to represent the present value of the minimum lease payments. The directors wish to point out that they disagree with this treatment. In their opinion, the asset should not be included on the balance sheet, as it is not owned by the company and is only rented. |
