Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 28th February 2025


1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Kerridge Properties 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.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

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.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company, and rounded to the nearest pound.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

Turnover
The turnover shown in the profit and loss account represents rents receivable and associated charges in respect of the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

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.
Investment properties - nil
Improvements to property - Straight line over 20 years
Plant and machinery - 25% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on cost

Freehold land is recognised at cost less impairment.

Investments in subsidiaries and associates
Investments in subsidiary and associated undertakings are recognised at cost less impairment.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.

Cash and cash equivalents
These comprise cash at bank and other short term liquid investments.

Debtors
Short term debtors are stated at their nominal value. Loans receivable are measured initially at their nominal value and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Appropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts are recognised in the Profit and loss account when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired.

Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, 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. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

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.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

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.

Investment properties
Investment properties are shown at fair value. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in the fair value is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account. A transfer is made to the fair value reserve net of applicable deferred tax where the fair value exceeds original cost.

4. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 5 (2024 - 5 ) .
