General principles

-

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the law of the Republic of Latvia "On Accounting", and "Annual Reports and Consolidated Annual Reports Law", as well in accordance with Cabinet of Ministers Regulations No. 775 " Regulations on Application of Annual Reports and Consolidated Annual Reports Law" and Cabinet of Ministers Regulations No. 399 " Regulations on Electronic Copy of Prepared Financial Statements or Consolidated Financial Statements" and other regulatory legislative acts on accounting and annual reports.

The annual report is drawn up on the basis of the company's accounting records, in accordance with the company's approved accounting plan, detailed according to the specific nature of the company's economic activities. Synthetic Accounting Register is general ledger that records transactions in monetary form but fixed asset accounting units - also in kind. Annual Report's Balance sheet item balance inventory has been carried out in accordance with Cabinet of Ministers Regulations No. 585 "Regulation Regarding the Conduct and Organisation of Accounting" and the Company's internal legal requirements.

The cash flow statement prepared on the operating cash flow as measured by indirect method. Profit or loss statement is classified by function of expense.

The annual review key points is assessed accounting to principles:

  • The assumption is that the company will operate in the future.
  • Used the same methods as used in the previous year.
  • Assessment carried out with the proper precautions:
    • report includes only the profit on the balance sheet date;
    • is taken into account all the expected risks and the losses incurred in the reporting year or previous years, even if they become known during the period between the annual reports ending date and the date of making the annual report;
    • calculated and taken into consideration any reduction in value and depreciation amounts, regardless of whether the reporting year is closed with profit or losses.

Taken into consideration with the current year revenues and related expenses, regardless of the date of payment and receipt of an invoice or the date of the statement. Cost-ordinated with revenues during the reporting period.

  • Active and passive components of items valued separately.
  • Beginning balance for the year coincides with the previous year's closing balance sheet.
  • Listing all items that materially affect the annual general users of the assessment or decision-making, minor items are combined and the detail provided in the annex.

  • Economic transactions in the annual report presented in the light of their economic substance and nature, rather than legal form.

Revenue recognition and net sales

Net turnover is the total value of the sold production (services) during the year without discounts and value added tax.

Other revenues are recognized as follows:

revenue from rents - as they were incurred;

revenue from penalties and default fees - at the time of receipt.

Fixed assets

Fixed assets are presented in the acquisition or revaluation cost less depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straightline method over the asset's useful period of usage. The following rates of depreciation is set by management, to write down fixed asset value to its estimated residual value at the useful end of period:

(the year)
Buildings and structures 58-100
Other fixed assets and inventory 4

When carrying value of the fixed asset is lower than its estimated recoverable amount, and it is expected to be sustainable, the impairment provision is created and the asset is written down to its recoverable amount.

The increase in value due to the revaluation is reflected in the equity item "Revaluation reserve for long-term investments". If increase in value fully or partially compensates the decrease in the value of the same fixed asset, which in previous reporting years had been included in the profit or loss account as costs, such an amount of increase in value, which does not exceed the referred to costs, is included in the profit or loss statement as income in the reporting year. Revaluation reserve of long-term investments is reduced, if the revalued object of fixed assets is disposed, liquidated or there is no basis for increase in the value thereof anymore or if calculation of annual depreciation of the object of revalued fixed asset is carried out. Reduction of revaluation reserve is included in the profit or loss account as revenue in the financial year in which such reduction is carried out.

The Company reduces the revaluation reserve attributable to a revalued property, plant and equipment as it calculates the annual depreciation of that property, plant and equipment, and recognizes it gradually to profit or loss over its remaining useful life.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to the profit and loss statement during the period in which they are incurred. Profit or loss from disposal of fixed assets are calculated as difference between balance sheet value and proceeds from sales, and income from write-off of revaluation reserve of the respective fixed asset, and it is recognized in the period when occurred.

Long-term financial investments

Investments in subsidiaries and associated companies are accounted for by applying the cost method. After initial recognition, investments in subsidiaries and associated companies are accounted at their cost, less impairment losses. If any events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of investment in subsidiary or associate may not be recoverable, the carrying value is revised to identify amount of impairment.

Debtors

Accounts receivable in balance sheet are stated in net worth from the initial value minus reserves for doubtful and bad debts. Specific provision for doubtful and bad debts are created when management believes that the recovery of these specialy segregated receivables are doubtful.

Receivables are measured at the end of the reporting period, in accordance with the accounting data and the statement on comparative settlements.

The actual amounts of the receivables correspond to the invoices and other amounts shown in the original accounting documents.

Use of estimtes

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense, and disclosure of contingencies. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and related assumptions are reviewed regularly. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are reviewed and in subsequent periods. The most important reasons for inaccuracy in estimates are:

Impairment

An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.

The residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed and, if necessary, adjusted at each balance sheet

Estimated time of using fixed assets

Fixed assets are presented in the acquisition or revaluation cost less depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straightline method over the asset's useful period of usage. The following rates of depreciation is set by management, to write down fixed asset value to its estimated residual value at the useful end of period.
