ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting
Finance lease agreements
Where the company enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. The asset is recorded in the balance sheet as a tangible fixed asset and is depreciated in accordance with the above depreciation policies. Future instalments under such leases, net of finance charges, are included with creditors. Rentals payable are apportioned between the finance element, which is charged to the Profit and Loss Account on a straight line basis, and the capital element which reduces the outstanding obligation for future instalments.
Where the company has entered into a sale and leaseback agreement, the finance lease is matched by secured deposit such that interest earned on the deposit will cover the interest charge on the finance lease over the term of the lease. The deposit is only to be used to settle the finance lease liability and therefore it has been offset with the finance lease creditor to show the net unmatched liability at the year end. Similarly, the interest earned on the deposit is offset against the interest charges within the lease payment.
Financial instruments
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the entity after deducting all of its financial liabilities.
Where the contractual obligations of financial instruments (including share capital) are equivalent to a similar debt instrument, those financial instruments are classed as financial liabilities. Financial liabilities are presented as such in the balance sheet. Finance costs and gains or losses relating to financial liabilities are included in the profit and loss account. Finance costs are calculated so as to produce a constant rate of return on the outstanding liability.
Where the contractual terms of share capital do not have any terms meeting the definition of a financial liability then this is classed as an equity instrument. Dividends and distributions relating to equity instruments are debited direct to equity.
Fixed assets
All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost.
Depreciation
Tangible fixed asset is stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided in accordance with the cost recovery method whereby depreciation is taken to the profit and loss account on the same basis as the income receivable in the accounting period.

The finance lease is matched by secured bank deposit such that the principal on deposit and the interest earned will be sufficient to cover the rental obligations on the finance lease until the end of the lease.
The deposit is only to be used to settle the finance lease liability and therefore it does not represent separate asset and liability. Consequently, it has been netted off with the finance lease creditor to show the net unmatched liability at the year-end.
