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.

Significant judgements and estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Directors to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results in the future could differ from those estimates. Management considers that certain accounting assumptions relating to revenue, taxation, stock and provisions are its critical accounting policies.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Turnover is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer, the amount of turnover can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the costs incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life or, if held under a finance lease, over the lease term, whichever is the shorter.
Short leasehold - Equally over the terms of the lease
Plant and machinery - 15% on cost
Motor vehicles - 20% on cost

Stocks
Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost of finished goods and work in progress comprise direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stock to its present location and condition. Provision is made for damaged, obsolete and slow-moving stock where appropriate.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Going concern
Having navigated the challenges thrown up by worldwide events over the earlier years of the current decade, we now find the markets for our raw materials to be relatively settled. Energy costs as well as inflation are steadily reducing from the peaks of 2022/23.
However, following two consecutive years of substantial rise in the minimum wage, exacerbated by uncertainties surrounding the incoming government's employment policies, the cost of labour and any associated issues are now moving to pole position as regard to the pressures on our costs of manufacture.
Although the national death rate has been at a reduced level in recent months, which has been reflected in our turnover, we have held our market share.

On this basis, management continue to prepare these accounts on a going concern basis and deem this appropriate. The director does not consider that a material uncertainty about the going concern status currently exists. In making this assessment the director has considered the likely trading conditions for a period of twelve months from the date of the approval of these accounts.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 15 (2023 - 15 ) .
