NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2019 |
|
|
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
|
Harlequin Estates Limited is a
|
company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. |
|
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
|
|
Going concern |
The company meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through its bank & loan facilities and support |
from group companies. After making enquiries, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company |
has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The company therefore |
continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. |
|
Preparation of consolidated financial statements |
The financial statements contain information about Harlequin Estates Limited as an individual company and do |
not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section |
399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements. |
|
Turnover |
Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of services supplied. Turnover includes |
rental income and service and management charges from properties. Turnover is measured as the fair value of |
the consideration received or receivable. |
|
Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When the |
company provides incentives to its tenants, the cost of incentives is recognised over the lease term, on a |
straight-line basis, as a reduction of rental income. |
|
Service and management charges are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. |
|
The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: |
|
Rendering of services |
Revenue from a contract to provide services is recognised in the period in which the services are provided in |
accordance with the stage of completion of the contract when all of the following conditions are satisfied: |
- the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; |
- it is probable that the company will receive the consideration due under the contract; |
- the stage of completion of the contract at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and |
- the costs incurred and the costs to complete the contract can be measured reliably. |
|
Tangible fixed assets |
|
Land and buildings | - |
|
Plant and machinery etc | - |
|
|
All assets are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The |
cost of an asset initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to |
bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner |
intended by management. |
|
Investments in subsidiaries |
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
|
Investment property |
Investment property is held for long-term rental yields or for capital appreciation or both, and not held for the |
social benefit or for use in the business. Investment property is measured at cost, including related transaction |
costs, on initial recognition and subsequently at fair value as at the year end, with changes in fair value |
recognised in profit and loss. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset's carrying value only when it is |
probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the company. All other repairs |
and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. Fair value is determined by either independent |
professional third party valuers or company officers, such as the directors. Depreciation is not provided in |
respect of the investment properties. Fair value of investment property reflects, among other things, rental |
income from current leases and other assumptions market participants would make when pricing the property |
under current market conditions. |
|
Financial instruments |
a) Debtors |
Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the |
arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the |
future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost |
using the effective interest method, less any impairment. |
|
b) Creditors |
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, loans from third parties and loans from related |
parties, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, |
where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate |
of interest. Such instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less |
any impairment. |
|
c) Cash at bank and in hand |
Cash and cash equivalents are represented by cash in hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, and |
other short-term highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition |
and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value. |
|
d) Interest income |
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method. |
|
Taxation |
The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. |
|
Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a change attributable to an item of income and expense |
recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other |
comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. |
|
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by |
the balance sheet date, except that: |
- |
the recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered
against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and |
- |
any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances
have been met. |
|
Both current and deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively |
enacted by the balance sheet date. |
