Notes to the Abbreviated Accounts
for the Year Ended 30 November 2016

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 January 2015).

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement
Exemption has been taken from preparing a cash flow statement on the grounds that the company qualifies as
a small company.

Turnover
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of services, excluding value added tax. Turnover is recognised once a
contractual order has been received.

Research and development
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred, except for
expenditure on related assets, which are disclosed in these financial statements as intangible assets, and
written off over the expected useful life of those assets, being 4 years.

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

Plant and machinery etc - 33% on cost and 25% on reducing balance

Deferred tax
The charge for taxation takes into account taxation deferred as a result of timing differences between the
treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. In general, deferred tax is recognised in
respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. However,
deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that the directors consider that it is more likely than not
that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.
Deferred taxation is measured on a non-discounted basis at the average tax rates that would apply when the
timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted by the balance sheet date.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the
period of the lease.

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.

Grant income
Revenue based grants are credited to the profit and loss account in the period in which the revenue
expenditure to which they relate is charged. Capital based grants are credited to the profit and loss account
over the useful life of the asset.

Financial instruments
Financial instruments are classified and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual
arrangement, as either financial assets, liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract
that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company, after deducting all liabilities.

Investments
Fixed asset investments are included in the company's balance sheet at cost less any amounts written off for
permanent diminution in value.
