Malling Markwell Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 19/21 Swan Street, West Malling, Kent, ME19 6JU.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosure is required to show a true and fair view.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £1.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Turnover represents amounts receivable for marketing and administration services, as well as income from property development.

Turnover for marketing and administration services are recognised once the services have been provided to the customer. Income from property development is recognised on the exchange of contract of the property sale.

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

No depreciation has been provided in respect of the freehold property as the property is valued at its residual value in the financial statements.

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is credited or charged to profit or loss.

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently it is measured at fair value at the reporting end date. Changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.

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

When the company acts as a lessor, a lease is classified as a finance lease whenever it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee, either at the end of the lease term or for the major part of the economic life of the asset. All other leases are classified as operating leases. If an arrangement contains both lease and non-lease components, the company allocates the consideration in the contract to the two elements.

In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows.

Land and buildings are valued at fair value on the basis of valuations carried out by the directors. Valuations are made on an open market value basis by reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties. The directors do not consider it necessary to obtain a valuation by an independent valuer.

Investment property is valued at fair value on the basis of valuations carried out by the directors. Valuations are made on an open market value basis by reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties. The directors do not consider it necessary to obtain a valuation by an independent valuer.

The average monthly number of persons (including directors) employed by the company during the year was:

The following assets are carried at valuation. If the assets were measured using the cost model, the carrying amounts would be as follows:

In the opinion of the directors, the total value of investment property held at the year end was £415,263 (2024: £415,263). The fair value of the investment property has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out by the directors as described in note 2.

The non-distributable profits reserve consists of gains on investment properties and current asset investments.
