1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Laskey Farm Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's

registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

Significant judgements and estimates

In the application of the company's accounting policies, management is 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 considered of

relevance. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and underlying assumptions are continually reviewed.

Revisions to estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only

that period or in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the areas of critical judgements that management have made in the process of applying the

entity's accounting policies.

Going concern

After making enquiries, the director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to

continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, it continues to adopt the going

concern basis in preparing these financial statements.

There are currently no sources of estimation or uncertainty that are judged to cause a significant risk of material

adjustment to the financial statements

Revenue recognition

The company undertakes property management and development of its own properties. Revenue represents the

rental income and recharges in respect of managed properties.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings

-

20% on cost

Motor vehicles

-

25% on cost

Computer equipment

-

25% on cost

Investments in subsidiaries and associates

Investments in subsidiary and associate undertakings are recognised at cost.

Investment properties

Investment property is included at fair value. Gains are recognised in the income statement. Deferred taxation is

provided on these gains at the rate expected to apply when the property is sold.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, 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.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with bank,

other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

Financial instruments

The company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12

'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's statement of financial position when the company

becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is

a legally enforcible right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to

realise the net asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction

price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised costs using the effective interest

method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the

present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as

receivable within one year are not amortised.

Other financial assets

Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments which are not subsidiaries, associates or joint

ventures, are initially measured at fair value, which is normally the transaction price. Such assets are

subsequently carried at fair value and the changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss, except that

investments in equity instruments that are not publically traded and whose fair values cannot be measured

reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of

impairment at each reporting end date.

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that

occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If

an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of

the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is

recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are

settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership

to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has

transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.

Classification of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual

arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of

the company after deducting all of its liabilities. Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, loans

from fellow group companies and preference shares that are classified as debt, are initially recognised at

transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is

measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities

classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of

business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or

less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction

price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the company's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or

cancelled.

Equity instruments

Equity instruments issued by the company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.

Dividends payable on equity instruments are recognised as liabilities once they are no longer at the discretion of

the company

Fixed Asset Investments

Investments in associate undertakings are stated at cost.
