Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
Andrew Mellor Ltd is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 7918457 . The registered office is 94 Norbreck Road, Thornton-Cleveleys, Lancashire, FY5 1RP.
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
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. 
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have
transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods); the amount of revenue can be measured
reliably; it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs
incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.
2.3. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Goodwill
Goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of the separable net assets. It is amortised to the income statement over its estimated economic life of 10 years.
The goodwill had been fully amortised at the reporting date.
2.4. 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 2% straight line
Plant & Machinery 15% reducing balance
Motor Vehicles 25% reducing balance
Fixtures & Fittings 15% reducing balance
If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or
residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.
2.5. Investment Properties
Investment property is measured initially at cost, which includes purchase price and any directly
attributable expenditure. Investment property is revalued to its fair value at each reporting date and any
changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. yields for comparable real estate, adjusted if necessary for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. No depreciation is provided for. Changes in fair value are recognised in the income statement.
2.6. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost
includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the stocks to their
present location and condition.
2.7. Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement
constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments
discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

2.8. Taxation
The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the
reporting period. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that
it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves. In this
case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively.
Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at
the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses
and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered
against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured
using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are
expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
2.9. Pensions
The company operates a defined pension contribution scheme. Contributions are charged to the income statement as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
2.10. Impairment
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount
being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount,
the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each
reporting date.
When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of
the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit
is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are
largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Fair Value
As at 1 November 2024 and 31 October 2025 220,000
There is one investment property remaining in the accounts which is held at the value given to it on 8 March 2023 by the letting and estate agents who have let the property. They have in-depth experience of the property market within that geographical area, and it was therefore deemed to be a reliable valuation. It has been assumed by the directors that the value had been unchanged between the reporting date and this valuation.
