1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

Turnover
Turnover represents the net value of NHS dispensing income and goods sold, excluding value added tax.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of businesses in 2006 and 2007, is being
amortised evenly over a useful economic life of twenty years.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated cost less depreciation.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful
life;

Leasehold property - 2% on reducing balance
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on reducing balance

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

Leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit & loss account as incurred.

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 the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate.

Financial instruments
The company utilises an invoice factoring facility. The substance of the agreement is that of a secured loan.
Separate presentation of assets and liabilities is therefore appropriate. Trade debtors are shown within assets and
a corresponding liability in respect of the proceeds received from the factor is shown within current liabilities.
