NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
for the Year Ended 31 December 2016 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Acceleris Limited is a |
registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration receivable for services provided, excluding value |
added tax. |
Any warrants issued as part of the fund raising projects are not valued or included in turnover. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in |
order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over it's estimated useful life. |
Fixtures and fittings | - | 20% on reducing balance |
Computer equipment | - | 33% on cost |
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 tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or |
substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the |
statement of financial position 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. |
Fixed asset investments |
Fixed asset investments are included at fair value or cost less impairment where the fair value cannot be |
measured reliably. |

8. | POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS |
Following the year end, one of the company's listed investments, Redx Pharma Plc, was placed into |
Administration, with share trading suspended. The Administrators have realised certain of that company's assets |
and indicated that the company would be handed back to the directors as quickly as possible. The carrying value |
of the investment at the time of the Administration was £482,540 and it is not considered appropriate to adjust |
the figure stated in investments, which are held at fair value at the balance sheet date. |
9. | FIRST YEAR ADOPTION |
This is the first year in which the financial statements have been prepared under FRS 102 Section 1A. |
There is a measurement difference between the previous UK GAAP and FRS 102 Section 1A in relation to the |
fixed asset investment valuation method. The fixed asset investment in certain shares have now been accounted |
for at fair value and the impact on profit for the year is £478,271. Previously the shares were accounted for at |
cost less impairment. |
