NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

1.


General information

Patrick Ruddy Homes Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Enterprise Way, Flitwick, Bedfordshire, MK45 5BS.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

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 Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the company's accounting policies.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company.

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Going concern

The directors are confident that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the forseeable future. Thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

 
2.3

Turnover

Turnover is recognised at legal completion in respect of the total proceeds of residential development. Turnover is measured at the fair value of consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and VAT. 
Turnover from the sale of residential properties is recognised when the contract for the sale is exchanged.
Turnover from joint venture of contracting activities is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable after taking  into  account for trade discounts, settlement discounts and volume rebates.

 
2.4

Fixed asset investments

Interests in jointly controlled entities are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The investments are assessed for impairment at each reporting date and any impairment losses or reversal of impairment losses are recognised immediately in profit and loss account.

 
2.5

Developments in progress

Developments in progress are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less incidental costs to sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the developments to their present condition.
At each reporting date, an assessment is made for impairment. Any excess of the carrying amount of inventories over its estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell is recognised as an impairment loss in profit or loss. Reversals of impairment losses are also recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.6

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

  
2.7

Pensions

The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. 

The contributions are recognised as an expense in the Profit and Loss Account 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.

 
2.8

Taxation

The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable.

Current tax
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The company’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting end date.


 
2.9

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.
