Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31st January 2018

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

A & D Cowan Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Scotland. 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
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added
tax and other sales taxes.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 25% on reducing balance and 15% on reducing balance

Amounts written off each asset over the estimated useful life represent cost less residual value.

Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving
items.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent
that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the balance sheet date.

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

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in
which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted
or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

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.

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 profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
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 the sale of goods and services performed in the ordinary course of
business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price and represent the full value of the goods and services charged
to customers, including any amounts charged on for third parties.

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.

Borrowings
Interest bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest bearing borrowings are
subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transactions costs, and the amount
due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the profit and loss account over the period of the relevant borrowing.
