| Notes to the Financial Statements |
| for the Year Ended 30 September 2024 |
| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Up Cerne Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the amounts recognised in the financial statements. Estimates and judgements are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are based on historical experience and other relevant factors. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. |
| The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows: |
| i) Valuation of investment properties |
| The company carries its investment property at fair value, with changes in fair value being recognised in the income statement. The company engaged an independent valuation specialist in 2023 to determine fair value at the year end. Subsequently the fair value has been reviewed by the director. |
| ii) Deferred taxation |
| Management estimation is required to determine the amount of deferred tax that should be provided on the revaluation of investment properties. |
| Turnover |
| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
| 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 |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Fixtures and fittings | - |
| Motor vehicles | - |
| Tractors and combines | - |
| A nil depreciation rate is appropriate for freehold buildings as the residual value over its useful life will exceed historical cost. Land has not been depreciated, properties are maintained to ensure that their value does not diminish over time. The maintenance costs are charged to profit and loss in the year incurred. |
| Investment property |
| Investment property is shown at most recent valuation plus any cost of property improvements. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss. |
| Stock and work in progress |
| Tillages, growing crops, cereals and other stores are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of cereals in store includes all direct production overheads. All other stock items are stated at cost. |

| Financial instruments |
| The company only has financial assets and liabilities that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at settlement value. |
| 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. |
| Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
