1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
E-Spark (Scotland) Limited is a private company, limited by guarantee, 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 |
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. |
These financial statements for the period ended 31 July 2017 are the first financial statements of E-Spark (Scotland) Limited prepared in |
accordance with FRS 102. The date of transition to FRS 102 was 01 Feb 2015. In the transition to FRS 102 from the Financial Reporting |
Standard for Smaller Entities (effective January 2015) the company has made adjustments, please see the reconciliation of equity for further |
details. |
Under FRS 102, Section 1A, the company is exempt from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements on the grounds that |
it qualifies as a small group. These financial statements present information about the company as an individual undertaking and not about |
its group. |
Going concern |
The company's financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis on the grounds that current and future sources of funding or |
support will be more than adequate for the company's needs. In assessing going concern, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the |
company will continue as a going concern and is able to meet all of its obligations as they fall due for a minimum of 12 months from the |
date of approval of these financial statements. |
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about E-Spark (Scotland) 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. |
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard |
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In the application of the company's accounting policies, management are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect |
the amounts reported or assets and liabilities as at the Balance Sheet date and the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the |
period. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. |
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period |
in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects |
both current and future periods. |
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 over the estimated useful economic lives, as follows - |
Computer equipment - Over 3 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. |

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 instrument for a similar debt instrument. |
Investments |
Investments in subsidiaries are held at cost less accumulated impairment losses. |
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. |
Government grants |
Grants are accounted for under the accruals model of accounting. Grants relating to expenditure on tangible fixed assets are credited to profit |
or loss at the same rate as the depreciation on assets to which the grant relates. The deferred element of grants is included in creditors as |
deferred income. Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in profit or loss in the same period as the related expenditure. |
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 is it probable that they will be recovered against the |
reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Foreign currencies |
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the company's functional currency at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the |
transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are retranslated to the functional |
currency at the foreign exchange rate ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in profit or loss. |
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. |
Revenue recognition |
Revenue represents amounts receivable for goods and services net of VAT. The total revenue of the company for the year has been derived |
from its principal activities. |
