These financial statements were authorised for issue by the

Accounting policies |
Statement of compliance
These abridged financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 Section 1A 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
These abridged financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
Revenue recognition
Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the company’s activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts.
The company recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity, and specific criteria have been met for each of the company's activities.
Tax
The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.
The current tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements and on unused tax losses or tax credits in the company. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and a valuation allowance is set up against deferred tax assets so that the net carrying amount equals the highest amount that is more likely than not to be recovered based on current or future taxable profit.

Tangible assets
Tangible assets are stated in the statement of financial position at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
The cost of tangible assets includes directly attributable incremental costs incurred in their acquisition and installation.
Depreciation
Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of assets, other than land and properties under construction over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
|
Asset class |
Depreciation method and rate |
|
Plant and machinery |
20% reducing balance |
|
Motor vehicles |
25% reducing balance |
Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. At each reporting date, stocks are assessed for impairment. If stocks are impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Biological assets
Biological assets, living plants and animals are included at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell.

Prior year adjustments |
Prior Year Adjustment
In accordance with FRS 102 Section 1A, the company has made a prior year adjustment to its financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024. The adjustment is primarily due to the recognition of more taxable trading income that had previously been recognised through the directors' loan account. This has resulted in an adjustment to the directors' loan account and a restatement of retained earnings.
The nature of the prior year adjustment is as follows:
1. Directors' loan account: The directors' loan accounts has been adjusted to reflect the correct balance of the assets and liabilities belonging to the company.
2. Retained earnings: As a result of the adjustments to the directors' loan account, retained earnings have been restated. This restatement reflects the correction of prior period errors and ensures the financial statements present a true and fair view.
The effect of the prior year adjustment is reflected in the restated comparative figures, as follows:
As previously stated | Adjustment | Restated figures 31 March 2023 | |
Directors' loan account | 601,781 | (26,365) | 575,416 |
Profit and loss account | 37,531 | (26,365) | 11,167 |
The adjustments were made to ensure compliance with FRS 102 and to provide a more accurate representationof the company's financial position in the prior year.
The comparative figures for the prior year are presented in accordance with the adjustments described above, and no other changes to the company's accounting policies or financial statements for the current year have been made.
