Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 30 April 2020

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Ardnahoe Distillery Company Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in Scotland. 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.

Going concern
The directors continue to be satisfied that the company has adequate resources to continue in operation for the next 12 months. Consequently, the directors consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

The Coronavirus outbreak has created great uncertainty and many challenges in all companies. In order to protect our business, the directors have taken prompt action to reduce costs across the company. While the full impact of COVID-19 is still uncertain and the final impact on the company cannot be accurately predicted, the directors believe that they are in a secure financial position and will be able to trade through the current difficult climate.

.

Revenue
Sales comprise revenue from the sale of Scotch whisky and other spirits, excluding value added tax and trade discounts, and is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable.

Revenue 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. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the Company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer.

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.
Freehold property - 2% on cost
Plant and machinery - 4% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on cost
Computer equipment - 33% on cost

Inventories
Inventories 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.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
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.

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.

Debtors
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment.

Creditors
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The average number of employees during the year was 30 (2019 - 20 ) .
