Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A - 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.

Basis of preparation

These financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The date of transition to Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A (FRS 102) was 1 April 2015.

Revenue recognition

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is stated net of value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.

The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the company and when specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.

Tax

The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that tax attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

 

A.A. Bramall Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2017

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that exist at the reporting date. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and total comprehensive income that arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in different periods from their recognition in the financial statements.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets other than investment property whose fair value can be measured reasonably, are stated in the balance sheet at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Asset class

Depreciation method and rate

Fixtures and fittings

10-20% per annum straight line

Office equipment

10-20% per annum straight line

Investment property

Investment property comprises properties held to earn rental income or for capital appreciation, or both. Investment property whose fair value can be measured reliably is initially measured at cost, including related transaction costs, and subsequently at each reoprting date is stated at fair value.

The difference between fair value of investment property at the reporting date and its carrying value prior to re-measurement is included in the profit and loss as other operating income.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

 

A.A. Bramall Limited

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2017

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

At each reporting date stocks are assessed for impairment. Any excess in the carrying amount of stock over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Equity instruments are measured at the fair value of the cash or other resources received or receivable, net of the direct costs of issuing the equity instruments. If payment is deferred and the time value of money is material, the initial measurement is on a present value basis.

Dividends

Dividend distributions to the company’s shareholders are recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.

Defined contribution pension obligation

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Staff numbers

The average number of persons employed by the company (including directors) during the year, was 4 (2016 - 7).

The freehold investment property was revalued to £1,700,000 by the company directors at as 31 March 2016 having regard to the actual third party disposal that completed on 30 September 2016. Following the sale of the non-ferrous scrap metal business in 2006 only a small part of the property remained self occupied, with the majority let to third parties, so rather than attempt an arbitrary split, the entire premises have been accounted for as investment property.

Transition to FRS 102

The company transitioned to FRS 102 on 1 Apri l 2015.

Investment property revaluation gains were previously reported in the Statement of Total Recognised Gains and Losses for the year and as accretions to the Revaluation reserve. FRS 102 requires revaluation adjustments to be reflected in profit and loss so the Revaluation reserve balance at transition to FRS 102 amounting to £1,558,580 was transferred to Profit and loss account reserve on 1 April 2015.

Investment property revaluation gains of £870,000 previously reported in the Statement of Total Recognised Gains and Losses for the year ended 31 March 2016 are now reported in profit and loss for that year.

The company was not previously required to recognise deferred tax on the revaluation of investment property whereas FRS 102 requires full provision for deferred tax. A deferred tax provision of £14,246 has been recognised at 1 April 2015 and included in the profit and loss for the year ended 31 March 2016.

Profit and loss for the year ended 31 March 2016 includes a £170,934 deferred tax charge relating to fair value re-measurements on 31 March 2016.
