1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Markethill Livestock & Farm Sales Ltd is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Northern

Ireland. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company

Information page.

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.

Turnover

Turnover represents the total invoice value, excluding value added tax, of sales made during the year

and derives from the provision of goods and services falling within the company's ordinary activities.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured

at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Tangible fixed assets

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

Land and buildings

-

25% on reducing balance, 2% on cost and not provided

Plant and machinery etc

-

25% on reducing balance, 15% on reducing balance and 10% on reducing balance

No depreciation has been charged on Freehold Land.

Investment property

Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from

changes in fair value is recognised in profit or loss.

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete

and slow moving items.

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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet.

Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held

under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the

shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to profit or loss over the relevant period. The

capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period

of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the

company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Grants

Capital grants and other contributions received towards the cost of tangible fixed assets are included in

creditors as deferred income and credited to the profit and loss account over the life of the asset.

Revenue grants are credited to the profit and loss account so as to match them with the expenditure to

which they relate.
