Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2017 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Company M Limited is a private company, limited by shares and registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and |
registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies |
and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and |
Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") and the Companies Act 2006. The presentational and functional currency of these financial statements is |
sterling. All amounts in the financial statements have been rounded to the nearest £1. |
Going concern |
The director believes that notwithstanding current year losses of £825,096, net current liabilities of £2,071,061 and net liabilities of |
£1,726,137, the company's financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis on the grounds that current and future sources |
of funding or support from external funding will be adequate to meet the company's needs for a period of at least 12 months from the date of |
approval of these financial statements. |
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of the exemption available under FRS 102 not to disclose related party transactions with its parent |
company, by whom it is wholly owned. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires |
management to exercise judgement in applying the company's accounting policies. The director is of the opinion that due to the nature of the |
business, there are no critical accounting estimates or judgements used in the preparation of these financial statements. |
Turnover |
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. |
Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other |
sales taxes. |
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised at point of sale. |
Interest receivable and payable |
Interest income and interest payable are recognised in profit or loss as they accrue, using the effective interest method. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Historical cost includes |
expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the |
manner intended by management. |
Depreciation is charged to profit or loss on the following basis - |
- Computer equipment - Over 3 years on a straight line basis. |
- Fixtures and fittings - 25% per year on a reducing balance basis. |
- Motor vehicles - 25% per year on a reducing balance basis. |
- Plant and machinery - 25% per year on a reducing balance basis. |
- Leasehold improvements - Over 15 years on a straight line basis. |
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an |
indication of a significant change since the last reporting date. |
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred. |
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss. |
At each reporting date the company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount |
of the asset is determined, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Any impairment loss is recognised |
immediately as an expense within the profit or loss. |
Stocks |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is based on the first-in first-out principle |
and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the stocks, production or conversion costs and other costs in bringing them to their existing |
location and condition. |
At each balance sheet date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stock is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated selling |
price less costs to complete and sell. The impairment loss is recognised immediately within profit or loss. |

Basic financial instruments |
Trade and other debtors / creditors |
Trade and other debtors are recognised initially at transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Trade and other creditors are |
recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition they are measured at amortised |
cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses in the case of trade debtors. If the arrangement constitutes a financing |
transaction, for example if payment is deferred beyond normal business terms, then it is measured at the present value of future payments |
discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. |
Impairment of financial assets |
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of |
impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found an impairment loss is recognised within profit or loss. |
For financial assets that are measured at amortised cost, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying |
amount and the present value of estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. |
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount |
and the best estimate of the amount that the company would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the balance sheet date. |
Current and deferred taxation |
Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates |
to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised directly in equity or other |
comprehensive income. |
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively |
enacted at the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax is provided on timing differences which arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different |
from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. Deferred tax is not recognised on permanent differences arising because |
certain types of income or expense are non-taxable or are disallowable for tax or because certain tax charges or allowances are greater or |
smaller than the corresponding income or expense. |
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply to the reversal of the related difference, using tax rates enacted or |
substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. |
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. |
Leases |
Leases in which the company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased asset are classified as finance leases. |
All other leases are classified as operating leases. |
Payments (excluding costs for services and insurance) made under operating leases are recognised in the profit and loss account on a |
straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless the payments to the lessor are structured to increase in line with expected general |
inflation; in which case the payments related to the structured increases are recognised as incurred. |
Pensions |
The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company |
pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations. The |
contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees. |
