INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF DACERELL LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Dacerell Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 March 2021, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policiesThe financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of its profit for the year then ended;
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and  our Auditors' Report thereon.  The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report.  Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves.  If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

DACERELL LIMITED
 

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF DACERELL LIMITED (CONTINUED)

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 2, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities, including fraud

Based on our knowledge and understanding of the company we identified the principal risks of a material misstatement in the financial statements relating to irregularities including fraud, and non-compliance with laws and regulations.

We documented our understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the company operates and focused on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Act 2006, Financial Reporting Standard 102, and compliance with relevant direct and indirect taxation regulations.

Audit procedures performed to respond to the risks identified included;


We assessed whether the accounting policies, treatments and presentation adopted in the financial statements were in accordance with applicable law and accounting standards.

We reviewed correspondence and documentation with regulatory bodies, such as HM Revenue & Customs for any indication of non-compliance with laws and regulations.

DACERELL LIMITED
 

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF DACERELL LIMITED (CONTINUED)

We carried out a detailed analytical review to identify unusual or unexpected results or outcomes which may have indicated a risk of material misstatement. We compared results to previous accounting periods to monitor variances and ensure that these were as expected.

We held discussions with management regarding the potential risks related to accounting irregularities, including fraud and carried out tests of management controls, such as the procedures for reconciling and agreeing company bank balances.

Our audit procedures were designed to respond to risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery, misrepresentations or through collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1.


General information

Dacerell Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England and Wales. The company's principal place of business is Weybourne Road, Sheringham, Norfolk, NR26 8WB.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows;
the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d).

This information is included in the consolidated financial statements of Norfolk Homes Holdings Limited as at 31 March 2021 and these financial statements may be obtained from Companies House.

 
2.3

Exemption from preparing consolidated financial statements

The Company is exempt under section 400 of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements. These financial statements therefore present information about the Company as an individual undertaking and not about its Group.

 
2.4

Going concern

The directors have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis, which assumes that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and for a period of no less than twelve months from the date of approving the financial statements.

 
2.5

Turnover

Turnover represents the value of group service and management charges recharged to group members.

 
2.6

Tangible fixed assets


Freehold investment properties have been valued by the directors and depreciation has not been charged on freehold land.

DACERELL LIMITED
 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

2.Accounting policies (continued)


2.6
Tangible fixed assets (continued)

Depreciation is provided on the following bases:

Freehold trading property
-
2%
straight line


Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

 
2.7

Revaluation of tangible fixed assets

Freehold investment properties are included at a fair value determined from market based evidence and assessed by the directors.


 
2.8

Investment property

Investment property is carried at fair value determined annually by the directors and derived from the current market rents and investment property yields for comparable rental property, adjusted if necessary for any difference in the nature, location or condition of the specific asset. Depreciation is not provided on investment properties. Changes in fair value are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

 
2.9

Valuation of investments

Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less accumulated impairment.

 
2.10

Debtors

Debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment for bad or doubtful debts.

 
2.11

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

 
2.12

Financial instruments

The Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities at transaction price like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks, related parties and other third parties.

 
2.13

Creditors

Creditors are measured at the transaction price.

 
2.14

Dividends

Equity dividends are recognised when they become legally payable.

DACERELL LIMITED
 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.15

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The Company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the Company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the Balance Sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the Company in independently administered funds.

 
2.16

Taxation

The taxation expense for the year comprises current tax. Taxation is recognised in the Statement of 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 balance sheet date in the United Kingdom.


3.


Accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of the financial statements involves, in certain areas, the use of accounting estimates and management judgment.
 
The assessment of the fair value of Investment Properties involves a degree of judgment and estimation by the directors taking account of market based evidence for the value of commercial property.

Contingent liabilities

The financial effect of these contingencies cannot be quantified.
