N A Leaver - Director

1.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the

Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

Turnover

Turnover represents commission and brokerage receivable and excludes VAT. Credit is taken at the date of

inception of policies at which point the company is contractually entitled to brokerage. Alterations in brokerage

arising from return and additional premiums and adjustments are taken into account as and when these occur.

Goodwill

Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2004, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of five years.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

Improvements to property

-

Over the period of the lease

Fixtures and fittings

-

15% on reducing balance

Motor vehicles

-

25% on reducing balance

Computer equipment

-

20% on reducing balance

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the

balance sheet date.

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 the profit and loss account over the relevant period. The

capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account 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 the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

Insurance broking assets and liabilities

The company acts as an agent in broking the insurable risks of its clients and, generally, is not liable as principal

for premiums due to underwriters or for claims payable to clients. Notwithstanding the company's legal

relationship with clients and underwriters and since in practice premium monies are usually accounted for by

the insurance intermediaries, it has followed generally accepted accounting practice by showing cash, debtors

and creditors relating to insurance business as assets and liabilities of the company itself.
