NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
for the year ended 31 December 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Equine Reproductive Services (UK) Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going concern |
The directors have considered the financial resources and commitments of the company and have concluded that there are sufficient resources in place to continue operating for the foreseeable future. The directors therefore consider it appropriate to continue to prepare the accounts on the going concern basis. |
Significant judgements and estimates |
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions which affect reported income, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Use of available information and application of judgement are inherent in the formation of estimates, together with past experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results in the future could differ from such estimates. |
Critical judgements in applying the company's policies |
No significant judgements have had to be made by management in preparing these financial statements. |
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions |
The directors do not consider that any other estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these financial statements have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. |
Revenue |
Revenue represents goods and services supplied, excluding value added tax. Revenue is recognised to the extent that the company has obtained the right to consideration through its performance and is measured at the fair value of the right to consideration. |
Intangible fixed 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. |
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2013, has been amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of one year. |
Property, plant and equipment |
Items of property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Improvements to property | - | 4% on cost |
Plant and equipment | - | 25% on reducing balance |
Fixtures and fittings | - | 25% on reducing balance |
Motor vehicles | - | 25% on reducing balance |
Computer equipment | - | 25% on reducing balance |

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Investments in subsidiaries |
Investments in subsidiary and associate undertakings are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition investments in subsidiary and associate undertakings are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. |
Inventories |
Inventories have been valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell. |
Financial instruments |
The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities such as trade, other accounts receivable and payable and loans to related parties. |
Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade payables or receivables, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. |
Debt instruments such as loans and other accounts receivable and payable are initially measured at present value of the future payments and subsequently at amortised costs using the effective interest method. |
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 statement of financial position date. |
Deferred tax |
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. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
Payments to defined contribution pension schemes are charged as an expense in the period to which they relate. |
