| NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 |
| 1. | Statutory information |
| Christopher Norton Limited is a private company, limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number is 09881455. The registered office is 7 & 8 Church Street, Wimborne, Dorset, BH21 1JH and business address is Higher Pleydells Farm, Okeford Fitzpaine, Blandford, Dorset, DT11 0TE. |
| 2. | Accounting policies |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Turnover |
| Turnover represents income from farming and related activities, net of value added tax. |
| 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. |
| BPS Entitlements have been fully amortised over their estimated useful life of 4 years. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Freehold property | - |
| Plant and machinery | - |
| Office equipment | - |
| Tractors | - |
| Computer equipment | - |
| Stocks |
| Stock and Work In Progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable 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 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. |
| Financial instruments |
| Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction price and accounted for according to the substance of the contractual arrangement, as either financial assets, liabilities or equity instruments. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company, after deducting all liabilities. |
| At each balance sheet date, financial instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period to which they relate. |
