Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Period 1 December 2017 to 30 September 2018

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Distinctive Publishing Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The
company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. This is the first year in which the financial statements have been prepared under the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts
receivable for commissions earned, stated net of discounts and of Value Added Tax.

The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, when it is probable
that future economic benefits will flow to the entity.

Turnover:
Turnover from the rendering of publication services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of
the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for the work
performed to the date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of
recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably.

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 the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 33% on cost and 25% on reducing balance

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment
losses.

Impairment of assets
At each reporting date fixed assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those
assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable
amount of any affected asset is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If estimated recoverable
amount is lower, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount, and an impairment loss
is recognised immediately in profit and loss.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised
estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the amount that would have been determined had no
impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised
immediately in the profit and loss account.

Financial instruments
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial
assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third
parties, loans to related parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.

Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting
period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss
is recognised in profit or loss.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Taxation
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A
current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a
previous period.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses
in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that
they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and other future taxable profits.

Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Employee benefits, 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 profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Short term employee benefits are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

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.

4. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the period was 17 (2017 - 20 ) .
