Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Leach Brothers Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page. 
The company's place of business is Old Market Field Industrial Estate, Witheridge, Tiverton, Devon, EX16 8TA .
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A Small Entities "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.
2.2. Turnover
This is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable from the sale of goods and services, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.
Revenue is recognised when goods and services are delivered to customers such that risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to them and that there is sufficient reliable evidence that delivery of goods and services has occurred.
2.3. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold 0% reducing balance
Plant & Machinery 15% & 25% reducing balance and 20% straight line
2.4. Leasing and Hire Purchase Contracts
Leases are classified as finance leases when the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the company. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to the profit and loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
2.5. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks have been valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.
Cost is calculated on a first in first out basis.
In respect of work in progress and finished goods, cost includes a relevant proportion of overheads according to the stage of completion

2.6. Taxation
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.
