STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITIES

 

United Kingdom company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and group as at the end of the financial year and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the directors are required to;

 

                  select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

 

                  make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

 

                  state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed; and

 

                  prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

 

The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985. They are also responsible for the system of internal control, for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF 19 ENTERTAINMENT LIMITED

 

We have audited the financial statements of 19 Entertainment Limited for the year ended 30 June 2004 which comprise the group profit and loss account, the group and company balance sheets, the group cash flow statement, the combined statement of movement in shareholders’ funds and movement in reserves and the related notes 1 to 24. These financial statements have been prepared under the accounting policies set out therein.

 

This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with section 235 of the Companies Act 1985. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors’ report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

 

Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors

 

As described in the statement of directors’ responsibilities, the company’s directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with applicable United Kingdom law and accounting standards. Our responsibility is to audit the financial statements in accordance with relevant United Kingdom legal and regulatory requirements and auditing standards.

 

We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view and are properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985. We also report if, in our opinion, the directors’ report is not consistent with the financial statements, if the company has not kept proper accounting records, if we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding directors’ remuneration and transactions with the company and other members of the group is not disclosed.

 

We read the directors’ report for the above year and consider the implications for our report if we become aware of any apparent misstatements.

 

Basis of audit opinion

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with United Kingdom auditing standards issued by the Auditing Practices Board. An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. It also includes an assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the directors in the preparation of the financial statements and of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the circumstances of the company and the group, consistently applied and adequately disclosed.

 

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other irregularity or error. In forming our opinion, we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation of information in the financial statements.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the company and of the group as at 30 June 2004 and of the profit of the group for the year then ended and have been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1985.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

Year ended 30 June 2004

 

1.                                      ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of accounting

 

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with applicable United Kingdom accounting standards. The particular accounting policies adopted are described below. They have all been applied consistently throughout the year and preceding year.

 

Accounting convention

 

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention.

 

Basis of consolidation

 

The group Financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and all its subsidiaries. Associates are accounted for as ‘other investments’ rather than consolidating using the equity method due to immateriality.

 

Turnover

 

Turnover represents the value of goods and services provided globally, net of value added taxation.

 

Depreciation

 

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual valve, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

 

Furniture and equipment

-

25% per annum on cost

Improvements to premises

-

over the period of the lease

 

Intangible assets

 

These are included at cost and depreciated in equal instalments over a period of ten years which is their estimated useful economic life. Provision is made for any impairment.

 

Deferred taxation

 

Deferred taxation is provided in full on timing differences that result in an obligation at the balance sheet date to pay more tax, or a right to pay less tax, at a future date, at rates expected to apply when they crystallise based on current tax rates and law. Timing differences arise from the inclusion of items of income and expenditure in taxation computations in periods different from those in which they are included in financial Statements. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is regarded as more likely than not they will be recovered. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

 

Advances

 

Non returnable advances receivable in respect of recording or merchandising contracts entered into are recognised as turnover at the earlier of receipt and contractually due date.

 

Where the receipt of a non returnable advance is matched by a payment of a non returnable advance 10 a related artiste, the advance paid is written off in the profit and loss account in the same period as the advance received. Where non returnable, recoupable advances are paid to artistes prior to the receipt of any incoming advance or other royalty income, such amounts are held on the balance sheet as advances to artistes. Such advances are amortised to the profit and loss account as related income is recognised as turnover. Amounts held on the balance sheet are regularly reviewed to ensure they are carried at the lower of amount paid and recoverable value.

 

Royalty accounting

 

The group recognises royalties receivable as income on an accruals basis at the point that they are both earned and on the basis of the best information available at the time of drawing up the accounts. No accrual where rurally information has not been received at the time of drawing up the accounts.

 

Investments

 

Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less provision for impairment.

 

10



 

Operating lease agreements

 

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

 

Work in progress

 

Work in progress represents costs incurred on projects in development. Amounts are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

 

2.                                      TURNOVER

 

The turnover and profit before tax are attributable to the one principal activity of the company.
