NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Martin Grain Company Limited is a |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and are presented in Sterling (£) which is the functional currency of the company. |
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for turnover and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements: |
Revaluation of investment property |
The company carries its investment property at fair value. Any fair value gains arising are not realised profits and therefore are transferred to a separately designated non-distributable fair value reserve. The method and significant assumptions used to determine the fair value of investment property are further explained in Note 6. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of services, excluding value added tax. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Freehold reversionary interest | - |
Expenditure on fixed assets is capitalised except for expenditure incurred on the replacement of assets of low value with short life. Repair, renovation and replacement expenditure is written off as expenditure in the profit and loss account. The cost of fixed assets is their purchase cost, together with any incidental costs of acquisition. |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Investment property |
Investment property represents the company's portfolio of freehold rents. It is initially recognised at cost, which includes purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. |
Investment property whose fair value can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort is measured at fair value at each reporting date. Any fair value gains arising are not realised profits and therefore are transferred to a separately designated non-distributable fair value reserve. Any loss arising from revaluation is also recognised in the fair value reserve unless it represents a loss below original cost, or its reversal, on an individual investment property is expected to be permanent, in which case it is recognised in profit or loss for the year. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, 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 using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet 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. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a non contributory scheme for some of its employees. It is defined contribution scheme and the costs are charged to the profit and loss account as they accrue. |
Consolidation |
The company and its subsidiary company comprise a small group. The company has therefore taken advantage of the exemption provided in section 398 of the Companies Act 2006, not to prepare group financial statements and accordingly these financial statements present information about the company as a single undertaking. |
Debtors |
Debtors are measured at their recoverable amount. |

Creditors and provisions |
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the company has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. |
