1A, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable In the UK and Republic of Ireland,.
Accountlng policies
Basls of proparatlon
The financl81 statements have been preparèd on the hlstorical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation
of certain finanGial assets and liablllties and investment properties mèasured at fair value through profit
or loss.
The financial statements are prepared In sterling, which is the functional currency of tha entity.
Taxatlon
As a charity, Friends of Ardavon is exempt from tax on income and galns falling wlthin Section 505 of
the Taxes Act 1988 or s256 of the Taxation of Charitable Galns Act 1992 to the extent that these are
applied to Its chargeable obje¢ts. Accordingly, no tax charges have arisen in the charitable company.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated
depreciation and impairment losses.
Any tsngible assets carried at r8valued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation
less any subsequent accumulated depreciatlon 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 capital and reseNes, except to the extent it reverses a
revaluation decrease of the same asset prevlously recognlsed in proflt or loss. A decrease in the
carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation is recognised in other comprehensive income to
the extent of any previously recognised revaluation Increase accumulated In capital and reseNes in
respect of that asset. Where a revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation galns
accumulated In capital and reserves in respect of that asset, the excess shall be recognised In profit or
loss.
Depreclatlon
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuatlon of an asset, less its residual value,
over the useful economic life of that asset as follows..
Fittings fixtures and equipment
Motor vehicles
reducing balance
straight line
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or
residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.

Impairment
A review for indicators of impairment Is carried out at each reporting date, wlth the 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.
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
are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Flnancial Instruments
A financlal asset or a financial liablllty is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
Baslc financial instruments are initially recognised at the transactlon price, unless the arrangement
constitutes a financlng transaction, where it Is recognised at the present value of the futur8 payments
discounted at a market rate of Interest for a similar debt instrument.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Where Investments In non-convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary shares or
preference shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the
investment is subsequently measured at falr value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.
All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less Impairment.
Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment
for an asset Is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a
market rate, In which case the asset Is measured at the present value of the future payments
discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at falr value, with any changes recognised in
profit or loss, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relatlonship.
Financlal assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are revlewed for objective evidence of
impalrment 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 equlty instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually
significant, these are assessed individually for impairment, other financial assets or either assessed
individually or grouped on the basis of simllar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal
does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would
have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
