NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019 |
|
|
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
|
Clowes & Co LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered |
office address can be found on the General Information page. |
|
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
|
|
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. |
|
Significant judgements and estimates |
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and |
assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually |
reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that |
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. |
|
The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting |
estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions |
that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and |
liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below. |
|
(i) Useful economic lives of tangible assets |
|
The annual depreciation charge for tangible assets is sensitive to changes in the estimated useful |
economic lives and residual values of the assets. The useful economic lives and residual values are |
re-assessed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, based on |
technological advancement, future investments, economic utilisation and physical condition of the |
assets. See tangible assets note for the carrying amount of the assets and the accounting policy for |
the useful economic lives for each class of assets. |
|
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, |
rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |

|
Tangible fixed assets |
|
Fixtures and fittings | - |
|
Computer equipment | - |
|
|
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated |
depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at |
fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent |
accumulated impairment losses. |
|
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other |
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity, except to the extent it reverses a revaluation |
decrease of the same asset previously recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any |
previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in equity in respect of that asset. Where a |
revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation gains accumulated in equity in respect of |
that asset, the excess shall be recognised in profit or loss. |
|
Impairment of Fixed Assets |
|
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with recoverable amount |
being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable |
amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at |
each reporting date. |
|
For the purpose of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an |
individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which |
the asset belongs. The cash- generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes |
the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or |
group of assets. |
|
Financial instruments |
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the |
contractual provisions of the instrument. |
|
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement |
constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments |
discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. |
|
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of |
impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an |
impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. |
|
For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually |
significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed |
individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. |
|
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the |
period of the lease. |

|
Defined contribution plans |
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the |
related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the |
prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. |
|
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting |
date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted |
present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in |
the period in which it arises. |

|
Members participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the members' |
agreement (for example, in respect of amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed, remuneration and |
profits). |
|
Members' participation rights in the earnings or assets of the LLP are analysed between those that are, |
from the LLP's perspective, either a financial liability or equity, in accordance with Section 22 of FRS |
102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', and the |
requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice 'Accounting by Limited Liability |
Partnerships'. A member's participation right results in a liability unless the right to any payment is |
discretionary on the part of the LLP. |
|
Amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed by members, for example members' capital, are classed |
as equity if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment to members. If the LLP does not have |
such an unconditional right, such amounts are classified as liabilities. |
|
Where profits are automatically divided as they arise, so the LLP does not have an unconditional right |
to refuse payment, the amounts arising that are due to members are in the nature of liabilities. They |
are therefore treated as an expense in the statement of income and retained earnings in the relevant |
year. To the extent that they remain unpaid at the year end, they are shown as liabilities in the |
statement of financial position. |
|
Conversely, where profits are divided only after a decision by the LLP or its representative, so that the |
LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment, such profits are classed as an appropriation of |
equity rather than as an expense. They are therefore shown as a residual amount available for |
discretionary division among members in the statement of income and retained earnings and are |
equity appropriations in the statement of financial position. |
|
Other amounts applied to members, for example remuneration paid under an employment contract |
and interest on capital balances, are treated in the same way as all other divisions of profits, as |
described above, according to whether the LLP has, in each case, an unconditional right to refuse |
payment. |
|
All amounts due to members that are classified as liabilities are presented in the statement of financial |
position within 'Loans and other debts due to members' and are charged to the statement of income |
and retained earnings within 'Members' remuneration charged as an expense'. Amounts due to |
members that are classified as equity are shown in the statement of financial position within 'Members' |
other interests'. |
