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 |
Plant and machinery etc | - |
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. |
