Notes to the Accounts |
for the period from 1 December 2021 to 31 March 2023 |
|

Accounting policies |
|
|
Basis of preparation |
|
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard). |
|
|
Turnover |
|
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Turnover include amounts receivable for harvests, cattle, livery, contracting and subsidies. The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, when it is probable that the future economic benefits will flow to the company and when specific criteria have been met for each of the company’s activities described below. Sale of cattle: Turnover from the sale of cattle is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of the ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point the customer has received delivery of the cattle. Sale of harvests: Turnover from the sale of harvests is recognised when the customer has entered into a contract to purchase harvested goods. This is usually at the point the customer has received delivery of the goods. Sales in respect of contracting: Turnover from the provision of contracting services is recognised when the services have been performed for the customer. Livery: Turnover from livery services is recognised when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the customer. This is usually at the commencement of the provision of the stables on a rolling contract business. Subsidies: Turnover from subsidies is recognised when the company has attained the rights to the subsidies. This is usually at the point of receipt. |
|
|
Tangible fixed assets |
|
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows: |
|
|
Freehold land & buildings |
2% straight line |
|
Plant and machinery |
10% - 25% straight line |
|
|
Impairment of assets |
|
At each reporting date fixed assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If estimated recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount is reduced to its estimated recoverable amount, and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit loss. If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not in excess of the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in the profit and loss. |
|
|
Stocks |
|
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell after making allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Biological assets held as stock comprise of livestock and grain. Livestock is measured on initial recognition and at each reporting date at fair value less cost to sell. Grain is included at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less cost to sell. |
|
|
Debtors |
|
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price), less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans and other financial assets are initially recognised at transaction price including any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. |
|
|
Creditors |
|
Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method. |
|
|
Taxation |
|
A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
|
|
Leased assets |
|
A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. All other leases are classified as operating leases. The rights of use and obligations under finance leases are initially recognised as assets and liabilities at amounts equal to the fair value of the leased assets or, if lower, the present value of the minimum lease payments. Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction in the outstanding liability using the effective interest rate method. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Leased assets are depreciated in accordance with the company's policy for tangible fixed assets. If there is no reasonable certainty that ownership will be obtained at the end of the lease term, the asset is depreciated over the lower of the lease term and its useful life. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term. |
|
|
Employee benefits, pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
|
The company operates a defined contribution scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an administered fund. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme. Short term employee benefits are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. |
