GROVELAND ESTATES LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 03503695)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 27 FEBRUARY 2024


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Groveland Estates Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

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.

The company meets its day to day working capital requirements through various bank loan facilities and cash flow agreements, which are supplemented by ongoing financial support provided by the directors, through the provision of short term loans when required.

The nature of the company's business is such that there can be considerable unpredictable variations in the timing of cash flows, particularly during the economic recession. The company has continued to operate within the main terms of its existing bank loan facilities and therefore the directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis. Consequently, they do not include any adjustments that would result from any withdrawal of the financial support referred to above.

Turnover
Turnover represents amounts receivable for goods and services, net of VAT and trade discounts.

Revenue on long term development contracts is recognised in accordance with the stages of completion of those contracts. The amount by which recorded turnover is in excess of payments received on account is disclosed as amounts receivable on contract with trade debtors.

Revenue on all other development work is recognised at the time of legal exchange of contracts for sale.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery etc - 25% on cost and 20% on reducing balance

Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

Stock and work in progress
Work in progress and completed stocks of properties that have not been developed under contract, and are held for resale, are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the purchase price of the land, together with those costs directly attributable to its development, including overhead expenses. Financial costs, including bank and loan interest, are written off in the year they are incurred.

Long term development contracts are valued at cost, net of amounts transferred to cost of sales that have been recognised, in accordance with the stages of completion of those contracts. Provision has been made for all foreseeable losses.

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 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.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 2 (2023 - 2 ) .
