Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are for the twelve-month period from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021. The corresponding figures to 31 December 2020 are for the seven-month period from 1 June 2020 and are not entirely comparable. The prior period end was changed to 31 December 2020 in order to align the date with other group companies.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in £ sterling, the functional currency, rounded to the
nearest £1.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
At 31 December 2021, the Company had total net liabilities of £2,800 (2020: £2,300). The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the shareholders have indicated their willingness and ability to support the Company for at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.
Debt instruments (other than those wholly repayable or receivable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash
