NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2020
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1a. Basis Of Accounting
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with FRS102 - The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006 .
1b. Going Concern
Due to outbreak of Coronavirus and subsequent lockdown on 23 March 2020, the company's trading has been adversly affected by this. Whilst the primary public house has been able to re-open, there was a period of closure and subsequent trading has been curtailed. Further disruption will no doubt be encountered the levels of which are unknown at present.
The proposed lease of a second public house has been delayed by the Coronavirus outbreak as the directors consider it is not viable at the moment to open these premises. It is intended that these premises will open as and when circumstances change sufficiently to make it a viable business proposition.
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors are confident that the company and its trade are a going concern and that it has the financial resources and the directors have the business acumen to steer it through these most difficult of times.
1c. Depreciation
Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets over their estimated useful lives.
Short Leasehold Propertiesstraight line 10%
Plant and Machinerystraight line 10%
Commercial Vehiclesreducing balance 25%

1d. Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell (net realisable value). Costs, which comprise direct production costs, are based on the method most appropriate to the type of inventory class, but usually on a first-in-first-out basis. Overheads are charged to profit or loss as incurred. Net realisable value is based on the estimated selling price less any estimated completion or selling costs.
When stocks are sold, the carrying amount of those stocks is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of stocks to net realisable value and all losses of stocks are recognised as an expense in the period in which the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of stocks is recognised as a reduction in the amount of stocks recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.
