STRATEGIC REPORT
for the financial period from 30 September 2022 (date of incorporation) to 31 March 2024

 
The director presents their strategic report on the company for the financial period from 30 September 2022 (date of incorporation) to 31 March 2024.
 
Business overview
The business’s principal activity is the wholesale of motor vehicle, lorry and agricultural tyres and associated services relating to this activity.
     
Business review
The turnover for the financial period amounted to £15,935,945. This turnover relates to the wholesale business activity for a 15 month trading period. Despite inflationary pressures gross margin has been achieved as forecast though the Director expects some uncertainty over cost prices in the future which may squeeze gross margin.
     
Cost Control Risk
Management continually monitors costs and variances to test against margin requirements.  A strategy of building long term supplier relationships is employed with price monitoring to ensure best value and consistency of service delivery.
 
Key performance indicators
The Key performance indicators during the financial period were as follows:
     
    Mar 24
    £
Turnover   15,936
Gross profit margin %   14
Operating profit margin %   8
     
Financial Risk Management
The company operations expose it to a variety of financial risks. The risks centre on the company‘s buying policy as goods require significant upfront payments before delivery. The company has implemented policies and procedures to monitor and reduce financial risk within the entity. Ongoing financial performance is monitored and reviewed to manage both short and long term performance. In particular, it is important for the success of the business to retain significant liquid assets for working capital to ensure supplies will not be disrupted or reduced.
     
Brexit & Customs Requirements
In June 2016, the UK voted by referendum to leave the EU. This created onerous customs administration processes for trade between the UK, NI and EU.  
The business mitigated the risk associated with the introduction of the customs requirements by working closely with its customers and suppliers to ensure the smooth movement of goods across international borders.
     
Business continuity risk
The company engages with an outsourced IT infrastructure firm, employing onsite and offsite data backup services.  There is an ongoing review of hardware, software and protocols to ensure that any risk from current or future activities is managed and associated risk mitigated.
     
Foreign exchange risk
The main denominations used within the company are Sterling and Euro. Currency risk is further mitigated where possible through the balancing of supplier invoiced payments. Large purchases/stock supplies are agreed in terms of price/sterling equivalent when ordered.
     
Compliance risk
The company is exposed to a number of regulatory frameworks specific to the purchase, disposal and storage time of tyres. In addition to the standard health and safety and employment requirements, there is continued emphasis and investment of time and resources to ensure ongoing compliance in all of these areas.
     
Credit risk
The company is exposed to credit risk and has implemented robust policies that require appropriate credit checks on potential customers before sales are made. The amount of exposure to any customer is subject to limits which is reassessed regularly by the credit control and management team.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
to the Shareholders of Murray Tyres Wholesale Ltd

 
Report on the audit of the financial statements
 
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Murray Tyres Wholesale Ltd ('the company') for the financial period from 30 September 2022 (date of incorporation) to 31 March 2024 which comprise the Profit and Loss Account, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies set out in note . The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable Law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:
-give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 March 2024 and of its profit for the financial period then ended;
-have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
 
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
 
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
 
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
 
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the director with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
 
Other Information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our Auditor's Report thereon. The director is responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
 
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Strategic Report and the Director's Report for the financial period for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Strategic Report and the Director's Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
 
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified any material misstatements in the Strategic Report and the Director's Report.
 
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
 
Responsibilities of director for the financial statements
The director is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
 
In preparing the financial statements, the director is responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the director either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
 
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditor's Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
 
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
 
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is contained in the appendix to this report, located at page , which is to be read as an integral part of our report.
 
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

APPENDIX TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Further information regarding the scope of our responsibilities as auditor
 
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
 
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
 
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control.
 
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
 
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our Auditor's Report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our Auditor's Report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.
 
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
 
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

Murray Tyres Wholesale Ltd
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the financial period from 30 September 2022 (date of incorporation) to 31 March 2024

   
1. General Information
 
Murray Tyres Wholesale Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated in Northern Ireland
         
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the company's financial statements.
 
Statement of compliance
The financial statements of the company for the financial period ended 31 March 2024 have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued by the Financial Reporting Council and in accordance with the Companies Act 2006.
 
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis and in accordance with the historical cost convention. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
 
Turnover
Turnover represents the total invoice value, excluding value added tax, of sales made during the year.
 
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognised when goods have been delivered, and where necessary, proof of delivery has been received.
 
Tangible assets and depreciation
Tangible assets are stated at cost or at valuation, less accumulated depreciation. The charge to depreciation is calculated to write off the original cost or valuation of tangible assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives as follows:
 
  Plant and machinery - 25% Straight line
  Fixtures, fittings and equipment - 25% Reducing Balance
  Motor vehicles - 25% Reducing Balance
 
The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed annually for impairment in periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
 
Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.  Cost comprises the average price of goods purchased by calculating the unit cost on the initial cost price and the reorder cost price. Full provision is made for obsolete and slow moving items.  Net realisable value comprises actual or estimated selling price.
 
Trade and other debtors
Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts except where the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases the receivables are stated at cost less impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts.
 
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation arising as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the same value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
 
Trade and other creditors
Trade and other creditors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost.
 
Employee benefits
The company contributes to pension schemes for key employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund.
 
Taxation and deferred taxation
Current tax represents the amount expected to be paid or recovered in respect of taxable profits for the financial period and is calculated using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the Balance Sheet date.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events have occurred at that date that will result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future, or a right to pay less tax in the future. Timing differences are temporary differences between the company's taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements. Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are anticipated to apply in the periods in which the timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the Balance Sheet date.
 
Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the Balance Sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The resulting exchange differences are dealt with in the Profit and Loss Account.
 
Ordinary share capital
The ordinary share capital of the company is presented as equity.
   
3. Significant accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
 
In applying the company‘s accounting policies the directors are required to make significant judgements, estimates and assumptions in determining the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. The directors‘ judgements, estimates and assumptions are based on the best and most reliable evidence available at the time when the decisions are made, and are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be applicable. Due to the inherent subjectivity involved in making such judgements, estimates and assumptions, the actual results and outcomes may differ. The items in the financial statements where these judgements and estimates have been made include:

(i) Determining and reassessing the residual values and useful economic lives of tangible assets
The annual depreciation charge for tangible assets is sensitive to changes in the estimated useful economic lives and residual value of the assets. The useful economic lives and residual values are reassessed annually. They are amended when necessary to reflect current estimates, based on future investments, economic utilisation and physical condition of the assets.

(ii) Recoverability of debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Estimates are made in respect to the recoverable value of trade and other debtors. When assessing the level of provisions required, factors including current trading experience, historical experience and the ageing profile of debtors are considered.

(iii) Stock Valuation
The company operate a perpetual stock control system with bespoke software which records the number of tyres held, make, size, age and purchase price. The purchase price on the stock listing may be adjusted as the system will update prices to an average cost price when reorders of the same product are updated to the system. This average price is used to value unit stock existing at the year end. Full provision is made for obsolete and slow-moving stock.
   
4. Period of financial statements
 
The financial statements are for the 18 month 2 days period from 30 September 2022 (date of incorporation) to 31 March 2024.
   
5. Statement on previous periods
 
The company did not present financial statements for previous periods.
     
6. Turnover
 
An analysis of turnover by class of business and geographical market is not given as, in the opinion of the directors, this would be seriously prejudicial to the company's interest.
     
7. Operating profit Mar 24

Operating profit is stated after charging:
