Mrs C A Ford - Director


AINSCOUGH CONTEMPORARY ART LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 03052231)

NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
for the Year Ended 31 August 2014

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The company is dependent on the financial support of the director, Mrs C A Ford. At the balance sheet date the
director's current account amounted to £629,355 (2013: £622,447) and would normally be repayable on demand.
The director, however, has indicated that she will not demand repayment of the loan during a period of at least
one year from the date on which the directors approve the financial statements. The directors have prepared plans
and forecasts for the next twelve months and are taking the necessary action to reduce the losses and restore
profitability. On this basis, together the willingness of the director to provide further financial support where
necessary, the directors consider the company to be a going concern, but inherently, there can be no certainty to
these views.

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation
of certain assets and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April
2008).

Turnover
Turnover represents the invoice value, excluding value added tax, of goods sold to customers in the year.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.

Freehold property - 2% on cost
Improvements to property - 2% on cost
Office equipment - 15% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 33% on cost

Investment property
In accordance with FRSSE, (i) investment properties and ground and chief rents are revalued annually and the
aggregate surplus or deficit is taken to the statement of recognised gains and losses (being a movement on an
investment revaluation reserve), unless a deficit (or its reversal) is expected to be permanent, in which case it is
charged (or credited) to the profit and loss account, and (ii) no depreciation or amortisation is provided in respect
of freehold investment properties and leasehold investment properties with over twenty years to run. The
treatment under (ii) above is a departure from the requirement of the Companies Act 2006 which requires that
depreciation is charged to write off the value of the investment properties, less any residual value, over the
period of the asset's useful economic life. The directors consider that the accounting policy adopted is necessary
for the financial statements to give a true and fair view. The annual revaluation is carried out by the directors on
an open market basis.

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