Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2017

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

A&W Sinclair Ltd 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 represents net invoiced sales of quarry materials and ready-mix concrete together with contracting income and
property development, excluding value added tax. Turnover from contracts and property development is recognised in
accordance with the company's accounting policy on long term contracts.

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
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.
Plant and machinery - 15% reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% reducing balance
Computer equipment - 25% reducing balance

Freehold property relates to quarry land and is held at cost. It is not depreciated. It will only be depreciated where the
quarry life is deemed to be less than ten years.

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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

HIRE PURCHASE AND LEASING COMMITMENTS
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire
purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over
their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the
future payments is treated as a liability.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

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.

CONTRACT ACCOUNTING AND PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT
When the outcome of a contract and property development can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by
reference to the degree of completion of each contract. When the outcome cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is
recognised to the extent of costs incurred where it is probable those costs will be recoverable.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 12 .
