Notes to the Unaudited Accounts
1. Accounting Policies
1.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the FRS 102 Section 1A Small Entities - The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
1.2. Turnover
Turnover represents the amounts excluding value added tax derived from the provision of services to customers during the year.
1.3. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Goodwill
Goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of the separable net assets. It is amortised to profit and loss account over its estimated economic life.
1.4. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Motor Vehicles 25% reducing balance basis
Fixtures & Fittings 10% reducing balance basis
1.5. Leasing and Hire Purchase Contracts
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts are capitalised as tangible fixed assets and are depreciated over their useful lives. Obligations under such contracts are included in creditors net of finance charges allocated to future years. The finance element of the rental payments are charged to the profit and loss account in equal instalments over the period of the contract.

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the profit and loss account as incurred.
1.6. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks.
1.7. Deferred Taxation
Due to the nature of the trade the motor vehicles depreciate at rates in excess of the generally accepted rates as provided in the accounts and the directors have therefore decided not to provide for deferred taxation.
1.8. Pensions
The company operates a defined pension contribution scheme. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.

1.9. Registrar Filing Requirements

The notes which are not included have been hidden but original note numbering has remained the same for those that are present.
