NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE 53 WEEKS ENDED 29 MARCH 2025
Urban Village Pub Company Limited is a company limited by shares incorporated within the United Kingdom. The address of the registered office is 59 Longlands Lane, Findern, Derbyshire DE65 6AH. The principal activity of the company is the operation of public houses.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland' and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The disclosure requirements of Section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.
The Company's functional and presentational currency is £ sterling.
The financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The following principal accounting policies have been applied:
The directors have considered the appropriateness of the going concern basis of the preparation of the financial statements by considering a period of at least 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements. Following a review of forecasts and anticipated future performance of the Company, the directors are of the opinion that there will be adequate resources available for the Company to continue trading for a period of at least 12 months and continue operating as a going concern.
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:
Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
∙the Company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer;
∙the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
∙the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
∙it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and
∙the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Revenue in respect of food and drink sales is recognised at the point at which the goods are provided, net of any discounts or rebates.
|
|
|
Operating leases: the Company as lessee
|
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE 53 WEEKS ENDED 29 MARCH 2025
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.
All borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the 53 weeks in which they are incurred.
Defined contribution pension plan
The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.
The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.
Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.
At each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6.67% - 20% straight line
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is calculated using the first-in, first our formula. Provision is made for damaged and obsolete stock where appropriate.
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment.
|
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours.
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.
|
|
The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the 53 weeks was 46 (2024 - 57).
