Accounting policies

Significant accounting policies
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102(1A) The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of land and buildings and certain financial instruments measured at fair value in accordance with the accounting policies.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the company.
Group accounts
The company is a parent company subject to the small companies regime. The company and its subsidiary comprise a small group. The company has, therefore, taken advantage of the option provided by section 398 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare group accounts.
Related party exemption
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.
Going concern basis
The directors believe that the company is experiencing good levels of sales growth and profitability, and that it is well placed to manage its business risks successfully. Accordingly, they have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of VAT and trade discounts. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods, the policies adopted are as follows:
  • Sale of goods
Sale of goods revenue is recognised at the point of sale, which is usually where the customer has taken delivery of the goods, the risks and rewards are transferred to the customer and there is a valid sales contract. Amounts disclosed as revenue are net of sales returns and trade discounts. 
  • Other revenue
Other revenue is recognised when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.
Government grants
The company recognises government support grants as other income, accrued for the period of eligibility. 


The company has  received a loan via the Covid Bounceback Loan Scheme which is government backed financial borrowing in order to aid business recovery. The loan is 100% backed by the government and with the government funding the interest for the first 12 months.

The company has also received Government backed asset finance which is also secured on the assets acquired.   

The company includes the nominal interest charge in finance costs and relief received from the government in other income.

Operating lease rentals
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income on a straight line basis over the lease term.
Finance lease and hire purchase charges
The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the income statement on a straight line basis.
Research and development expenditure
Expenditure during the research phase of a project is recognised as an expense when incurred.


Development costs are capitalised when technical feasibility studies identify that the project will develop an intangible asset that will be completed and available for use or sale, that there are adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development, that it will deliver future economic benefits and these benefits can be measured reliably.



Development costs have a finite life and are amortised on a systematic basis matched to the future economic benefits over the useful life of the project.

Development costs are in relation to the creation of new recipes and products.  Costs include materials, employee costs and external costs necessary to the projects.  Amortisation is calculated on a straight line basis over 10 years which is considered a reasonable lifeline for the economic benefit. 


Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate ruling at the date of the transaction. All foreign exchange differences are included to the income statement.
Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.  Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable or refundable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date.
Deferred taxation
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date.  Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.


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 liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if the company has legal right to set off against current tax liabilities and if they both relate to income tax levied by the same taxation authority on the same entity.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets (including purchased goodwill and patents) are amortised at rates calculated to write off the assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful economic lives. Impairment of intangible assets is only reviewed where circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable.
Development expenditures
Research and development expenditure is charged to the income statement in the period in which it is incurred. However, where the directors are satisfied as to the technical, commercial and financial viability of individual projects, development expenditure is deferred and amortised over 10 years during which the company is expected to benefit.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, are stated at cost or valuation less depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following basis:
Leasehold improvements 10% Straight Line
Plant and Machinery 10% Reducing Balance
Fixtures and Fittings 25% Straight Line
Computer Equipment 25% Reducing Balance
Assets on finance lease and hire purchase
Assets held under finance lease or hire purchase contracts i.e. those contracts where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the company, are included in the appropriate category of tangible fixed assets and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their estimated expected useful lives.
Future obligations under such contracts are included in creditors net of the finance charge allocated to future periods.
Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less provision for any permanent diminution in value.
Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
Factored debts
The company includes factored debts within trade debtors since most of the risks and rewards of ownership of the factored debts have not passed to the factors. A corresponding liability is included in liabilities in respect of the proceeds received from the factor.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present obligation as a result of a past event which it is more probable than not will result in an outflow of economic benefits that can be reasonably estimated.
Financial instruments
  • Financial assets
Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors, inter-group loans, cash and bank balances, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Assets within one year are not amortised.
  • Financial liabilities


Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors, bank loans and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Significant Judgements and Estimates
Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make significant judgements and estimates. The following are significant management judgements in applying the accounting policies of the group that have the most significant effect on the financial statements.

  • Intangible assets
Management monitors progress of internal research and development projects. Significant judgement is required in distinguishing research from the development phase. Development costs are recognised as an asset when all the criteria are met, whereas research costs are expensed as incurred.

Amortisation is charged on development intangibles over their deemed useful life. This period has been determined via a review of each project, considering both historic and future factors. The directors believe the amortisation periods applied appropriately reflect the estimated useful life of the assets.

  • Going concern
The Directors have reviewed the companys budgets and forecasts for beyond 12 months from the date of this report, its liquid resources, medium term plans and potential fund raising.  The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, consider that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.
