2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investment properties and freehold land included within tangible fixed assets which are included at market value. |
These financial statements are prepared in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. All monetary amounts are rounded to the nearest £1. |
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The company has changed its accounting policy such that freehold land and buildings are now measured at historical cost less depreciation, rather than measured at market value. |
TURNOVER |
Rents receivable are recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. |
INTANGIBLE ASSETS |
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS |
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less depreciation. |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life: |
Freehold land | - | not depreciated |
Freehold buildings | - | 2% on cost |
Biological assets | - | 5% on cost |
Plant and machinery | - | 15% on reducing balance |
Office equipment | - | 15% on reducing balance |
Motor vehicles | - | 25% on reducing balance |
Freehold land and buildings rented to other group companies are included in tangible fixed assets and measured at cost less depreciation. |
INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES |
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost. |
INVESTMENT PROPERTY |
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss. |
STOCKS |
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11' Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. |
Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to contractual provisions of the instrument. |
Financial assets are offset, with the net amounts presented in the accounts where there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |

Cash equivalents |
Short term investment bonds with a maturity date of 3 months or less are considered cash equivalents and are classified as cash at bank and in hand on the balance sheet. |
Basic financial assets |
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method 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. |
Basic financial liabilities |
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of future receipts, discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of the operations from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction cost. |
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 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. |

10. | RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES |

11. | PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT |
The company has changed its accounting policy such that freehold land and buildings are now measured at historical cost less depreciation, rather than measured at market value. The comparative figures have been changed accordingly, with tangible fixed assets reduced in value by £321,926, deferred tax reduced by £4,352, revaluation reserve of £314,245 derecognised and retained earnings reduced by £3,329 in regards to deferred tax adjustments. |
The comparatives have also been restated as property held by the company with the intention of being redeveloped and then sold on as part of trading purposes was previously classed as investment property. The comparatives have been restated to reduce investment property by the market value of the property of £400,000 and increase stock by the historical cost of the property of £301,568. The non-distributable reserve has been reduced by the difference of £98,432. |
