NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE PERIOD 1 APRIL 2016 TO 31 DECEMBER 2016 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Cranbox Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales. The address |
of the company's registered office address can be found on the company information page of the financial |
statements. |
The company's principal activity continued to be the development and sale of computer software products. |
The presentation currency of these financial statements is sterling (£), being the currency of the primary |
economic market in which the entity operates (its functional currency). All amounts in these financial statements |
have been rounded to the nearest pound unless stated otherwise. |
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. |
These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about Cranbox Limited as an individual company and do not |
contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company has taken the option under |
Section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable arid represents amounts |
receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of VAT and trade discounts. |
Turnover represents revenue from software licence fee income; support and maintenance income; and services |
income. |
Software licence fee income is recognised by reference to the stage of completion over the period of the |
implementation process. Support and maintenance income is deferred at the date of invoicing and released to |
the profit and loss account over the duration of the maintenance contracts. The balance of maintenance income |
not released to the profit and loss account is carried in the balance sheet within deferred revenue. Services |
income is recognised in the month the services are performed. |

Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost, or deemed cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated |
impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as |
intended. |
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 | - straight line over remainder of lease |
Fixtures and fittings | - straight line - 25% |
Equipment | - straight line - 25% |
Assets are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such |
indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. |
Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in the profit or |
loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease. |
Investments in subsidiaries |
Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year |
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at |
transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other |
administrative expenses. |
Leases |
Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight |
line basis over the period of the lease. |
Tax |
Current tax represents the amount of tax payable or receivable in respect of the taxable profit (or loss) for the |
current or past reporting periods. It is measured at the amount expected to be paid or recovered using the tax |
rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax represents the future tax consequences of transactions and events recognised in the financial |
statements of current and previous periods. It is recognised in respect of all timing differences, with certain |
exceptions. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and total comprehensive income as |
stated in the financial statements that arise from the inclusion of income and expense in tax assessments in |
periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. 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. |
Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the |
balance sheet date that are expected to apply to the reversal of timing differences. Deferred tax on revalued |
non-depreciable tangible fixed assets and investment properties is measured using the rates and allowances |
that apply to the sale of the asset. |
Research and development |
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred. |

Foreign currencies |
Foreign currency transactions are initially recognised by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot |
exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction. |
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency at the balance sheet date are translated using |
the closing rate |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for employees. The assets of the scheme are |
held separately from those of the company. The annual contributions are charged to the profit and loss account. |
Employee benefits |
When employees have rendered service to the company, short-term employee benefits to which the employees |
are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service |
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. |
Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments (including share capital) are equivalent to a similar |
debt instrument, those financial instruments are classified as financial liabilities. Financial liabilities are |
presented as such in the balance sheet. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to financial liabilities are |
included in the profit and loss account. Financial costs are calculated so as to produce a constant rate of return |
on the outstanding liability. |
Where contractual terms of share capital do not have any terms meeting the definition of financial liability then |
this is classified as an equity instrument. Dividends and distributions relating to equity instruments are debited |
directly to equity. |

11. | TRANSITION TO FRS102 |
This is the first period that the company has presented its financial statements under the provisions of |
Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) "The Financial Reporting |
Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" issued by the Financial Reporting Council. The last |
financial statements, for the year ended 31 March 2016, were prepared under previous UK GAAP. The |
transition date to FRS 102 is therefore 1 April 2015. |
Adopting FRS 102 has meant that accounting policies have changed to comply with the new standard as |
follows: |
Employment benefits |
Under previous GAAP, the company did not make adjustments for short-term employment benefits earned, |
but not provided by the year-end. Under FRS 102 the company is required to accrued for such amounts. This |
has meant a reduction in opening reserves of £12,000 with a further reduction of £2,800 in the year ended 31 |
March 2016. |
