Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

Year Ended 28 February 2025

Government grants

Grants received in respect of capital projects are recognised as deferred income on the balance sheet, and amortised over the expected useful life of the project to which they relate.

In the opinion of the directors this useful life is 40 years, with the annual release recognised in other operating income.

Tax

Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except that a change attributable to an item of income or expense recognised as other comprehensive income is also recognised directly in other comprehensive income.

The current corporation tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the company operates and generates taxable income.

Deferred tax is recognised on all timing differences at the balance sheet date unless indicated below. Timing differences are differences between taxable profits and the results as stated in the profit and loss account and other comprehensive income. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Investment property

Investment property is carried at fair value, derived by the Directors upon consideration of current market values, rental yields, and valuations undertaken for lending purposes.

The Directors use observable market prices, adjusted if necessary for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset.

Changes in fair value are recognised within other operating income within profit and loss.

Stocks

Stocks comprise of development work in progress, which includes development land.

Stock is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. At each reporting date stocks are assessed for impairment. If stocks are impaired the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit and loss.

Financial instruments


Classification
The company holds the following financial instruments:

• Short term trade and other debtors and creditors;
• Bank loans; and
• Cash and bank balances.

All financial instruments are classified as basic.

Recognition and measurement
The company has chosen to apply the recognition and measurement principles in FRS102.

Financial instruments are recognised when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument and derecognised when in the case of assets, the contractual rights to cash flows from the assets expire or substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party, or in the case of liabilities, when the company’s obligations are discharged, expire or are cancelled.

Except for bank loans, such instruments are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received, after taking account of impairment adjustments.

Bank loans are initially measured at transaction price, including transaction costs, and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Critical judgements and estimation uncertainty

In applying the company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts 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 if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following areas are where the Directors have applied judgement in the preparation of the financial statements:
