1 Accounting Policies
Basis of measurement and preparation of accounts
The financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis because the director has confirmed their intention to continue to provide sufficient funds to enable the company to meet all its liabilities as they fall due.
Should this basis not be appropriate, then adjustments to the financial statements may be necessary to accrue for further liabilities that may be incurred and to reclassify fixed assets and long term liabilities as current assets and liabilities.
Turnover policy
Tangible assets depreciation policy
Plant & Machinery - 25% reducing balance
Motor Vehicles - 20% straight line and 25% reducing balance
Equipment - 33% straight line
Other accounting policies
Where the company enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. The asset is recorded in the balance sheet as a tangible fixed asset and is depreciated in accordance with the above depreciation policies. Future instalments under such leases, net of finance charges, are included within creditors. Rentals payable are apportioned between the finance element, which is charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis, and the capital element which reduces the outstanding obligation for future instalments.
Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for, according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, financial liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities.
