Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
D R Cantrill Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 04470717 . The registered office is Fieldhouse Farm, Levedale, Dunston, Stafford, Staffs, ST18 9AH.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
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.  The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the company and rounded to the nearest £.
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.
2.2. Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of VAT and trade discounts.  The policies adopted for the recognition of turnover are as follows:
Sale of milk and livestock
Turnover from the sale of milk and livestock is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have transferred to the buyer, the amount of turnover can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. This is usually on dispatch of the goods.
Rental income, grazing and wayleave
Rental income, wayleave and grazing are recognised using the accruals model.
Government subsidies
Government grants and subsidies are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the company will comply with conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received using the accrual model.
2.3. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Other Intangible
Intangible assets acquired separately from a business are capitalised at cost. Intangible assets acquired on business combinations are capitalised separately from goodwill if the fair value can be measured reliably on initial recognition. 
Intangible assets are amortised on a straight line over their useful lives.  The useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:
Basic Payment Entitlements - 6 years.
Provision is made for any impairment.
2.4. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.  Depreciation is provided at the following rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property 4% on cost
Plant & Machinery 15% on reducing balance
Motor Vehicles 25% on reducing balance
2.5. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks are valued in accordance with Business Economic Note 19 issued by the Inland Revenue, at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell using other accepted conventions to arrive at deemed cost where actual costs are not accurately ascertainable, after making allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

2.6. 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.
2.7. Pensions
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
2.8. Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price.  Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses.
