Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

At each reporting period end date, the company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Status

During the year the company has acted as agent for the lessees of the property at 22-39 High firs, Gills Hill, Radlett WD7 8BH. The funds in relation to the maintenance of the property are held in trust. As at 24 December 2016 the cash balance held on behalf of the lessees amounted to £97,943.

The Company therefore has no income or expenditure in its own right in relation to the maintenance of the common parts of the property held in accordance with the governing leases. Income and expenditure arising from these transactions is shown in separate service charge accounts for the property that do not form part of the annual accounts of the company and not filed at Companies House. The accounts can be obtained from Launchacre Limited.

There were no adjustments to prior year accounts as a result of the adoption of FRS 102.

The contributions from the shareholders to purchase the freehold were previously disclosed as share premium, however the shares have never been registered as being issued at a premium. Therefore these payments have been reclassified to other reserves as a ‘Freehold contribution reserve’.
