Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2021 |
|
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
|
Blackett Hart & Pratt LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page. |
|
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
|
|
There were no material departures from that standard. |
|
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below and have remained unchanged from the previous year, and also have been consistently applied within the same accounts. |
|
The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the LLP will continue to trade. However, the validity of the going concern basis is dependent upon the continued support of the members and creditors. If the LLP is unable to continue to trade, adjustments would be required to reduce the value of assets to their recoverable amounts, to provide for any further liabilities that might arise and to analyse both fixed assets and long term liabilities as current assets and liabilities. |
|
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about Blackett Hart & Pratt LLP as an individual LLP and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The LLP has taken the option under Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 as applied to LLPs by the Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) (Application of Companies Act 2006) Regulations 2008 not to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
|
Turnover |
Turnover represents amounts charged to clients for professional services provided during the year excluding VAT and third-party invoiced disbursements. Revenue is recognised on an individual engagement basis when the right to consideration has been obtained from the client in exchange for work performed and where the recoverability of the consideration can be assessed with reasonable probability. Turnover in respect of contingent fee assignments (over and above any agreed minimum fee) is only recognised when the contingent event occurs and recoverability of the fee is assured. |
|
Unbilled turnover on individual client assignments is included in amounts recoverable on contracts within debtors. |
|
Tangible fixed assets |
|
Short leasehold | - |
|
Office equipment | - |
|
Motor vehicles | - |
|
Computer equipment | - |
|
|
Investments |
Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment. |
|
Financial instruments |
Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost with changes recognised in profit or loss. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
|
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The LLP operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the LLP's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
|
Taxation |
Income tax payable on the profits of the LLP is solely the personal liability of the individual members and consequently is not dealt with in these financial statements. |
|
Members' participation rights |
Members' participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the members' agreement (for example, in respect of remuneration and profits). |
|
Members' participation rights in the earnings or assets of the LLP are analysed between those that are, from the LLP's perspective, either a financial liability or equity, in accordance with FRS 102. A member's participation right results in a liability unless the right to any payment is discretionary on the part of the LLP. |
|
Profits are classed as an appropriation of equity rather than as an expense and are shown as a residual amount available for discretionary division among members in the Profit and Loss Account and are equity appropriations in the Balance Sheet. |
|
Amounts due to members that are classified as equity are shown in the Balance Sheet within 'Loans and other debts due to members'. |
|
Professional indemnity claims |
The LLP may be involved in disputes in the ordinary course of business, which may give rise to claims. The LLP carries professional indemnity insurance and the cost of premiums is charged to the profit and loss account over the period of such insurance. A provision is made for the excess costs which are not covered by professional indemnity insurance. |
