NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 27 NOVEMBER 2025

1.


GENERAL INFORMATION

Emslies Livestock Ltd is a private company limited by shares incorporated in Scotland. The registered office is Kinknockie, Mintlaw, Peterhead, AB42 5AX.

The Company's functional and presentational currency is GBP.

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 
2.1

BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the requirements and the Companies Act 2006. 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 following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

GOING CONCERN

The company is relient on the continued support of the bank, the directors and the owners and at this point there is no reason to doubt that support will continue.

The company has prepared projections that demonstrate that the company can continue continue to operate and have sufficient resources to meet liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of appoval of these financial statements.

Consequently, the directors consider it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

 
2.3

TURNOVER

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Sale of goods

Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
the Company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer;
the Company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
it is probable that the Company will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 
2.4

TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, on a reducing balance basis.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Property improvements
-
4.0%
straight line
Plant and machinery
-
12.5%
reducing balance
Motor vehicles
-
25.0%
reducing balance

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

  
2.5

BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

Biological assets are recognised only when three recognition criteria have been fulfilled: 
- the entity has control over the asset as a result of past events; 
- it is probably that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the entity; and
- the fair value or cost of the asset can be measured reliably. 

Where the company opts to measure a biological asset under the fair value model on initial recognition it must carry the asset at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value less costs to sell are recognised in profit or loss. 

Where the company opts to measure agricultural produce harvested from the biological asset it is measured at fair value less costs to sell at the point of harvest. This measurement becomes the cost at the date the company applies Section 13 Inventories to the agricultural produce.
