||Accounting<br>policies<br>(Continued)|
|---|---|
|1.6|Intangible<br>fixed assets other than goodwill|
||Intangible<br>assets acquired<br>separately<br>from a business are recognised<br>at cost and are subsequently<br>measured<br>at cost less accumulated<br>amortisation<br>and accumulated<br>impairment<br>losses.|
||Intangible<br>assets<br>acquired<br>on<br>business<br>combinations<br>are<br>recognised<br>separately<br>from<br>goodwill<br>at the<br>acquisition<br>date where<br>it is probable<br>that the expected<br>future<br>economic<br>benefits<br>that are attributable<br>to the<br>asset will flow to the entity and the fair value ofthe asset can be measured<br>reliably; the intangible<br>asset arises<br>from contractual<br>or other legal rights; and the intangible<br>asset is separable<br>from the entity.|
||Amortisation<br>is recognised<br>so as to write offthe cost or valuation<br>ofassets less their residual<br>values over their<br>useful lives on the following bases:|
||Website development<br>25%on cost|
|1.7|Tangible fixed assets|
||Tangible<br>fixed assets are initially<br>measured<br>at cost and subsequently<br>measured<br>at cost or valuation,<br>net of<br>depreciation<br>and any impairment<br>losses.|
||Depreciation<br>is recognised<br>so as to write offthe cost or valuation<br>ofassets less their residual<br>values over their<br>useful lives on the following bases:|
||Computer<br>equipment<br>25%on cost|
||The gain<br>or loss arising<br>on the disposal<br>of an asset<br>is determined<br>as the difference<br>between<br>the sale<br>proceeds and the carrying<br>value ofthe asset, and is recognised<br>in net income/(expenditure)<br>for the year.|
|1.8|Fixed asset investments|
||Fixed asset<br>investments<br>are<br>initially<br>measured<br>at transaction<br>price<br>excluding<br>transaction<br>costs,<br>and are<br>subsequently<br>measured<br>at fair value<br>at each reporting<br>date.<br>Changes<br>in fair value are recognised<br>in net<br>income/(expenditure)<br>for the year. Transaction<br>costs are expensed as incurred.|
|1.9|Impairment<br>offixed assets|
||At each reporting<br>end date, the Society reviews the carrying<br>amounts<br>of its tangible<br>and intangible<br>assets to<br>determine<br>whether<br>there is any indication<br>that those assets have suffered<br>an impairment<br>loss. If any such<br>indication<br>exists, the recoverable<br>amount<br>of the asset is estimated<br>in order to determine<br>the extent of the<br>impairment<br>loss (ifany).|
|1.10|Cash and cash equivalents|
||Cash and cash equivalents<br>include<br>cash<br>in hand,<br>deposits<br>held at call with<br>banks,<br>other short-term<br>liquid<br>investments<br>with original<br>maturities<br>ofthree months<br>or less, and bank overdrafts.<br>Bank overdrafts<br>are shown|
||within<br>borrowings<br>in current<br>liabilities.|
||Financial instruments|
||The Society has elected to apply the provisions<br>of Section 11 'Basic Financial<br>Instruments'<br>and Section 12<br>'Other Financial<br>Instruments<br>Issues' ofFRS 102to all of its financial<br>instruments.|
||Financial<br>instruments<br>are recognised<br>in the Society's balance sheet when<br>the Society becomes<br>party to the<br>contractual<br>provisions<br>ofthe instrument.|
||Financial assets and liabilities<br>are offset, with the net amounts<br>presented<br>in the financial<br>statements,<br>when<br>there is a legally enforceable<br>right to set off the recognised<br>amounts<br>and there is an intention<br>to settle on a<br>net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.|
