NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2015

1.ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1
Basis of preparation of financial statements


The full financial statements, from which these abbreviated accounts have been extracted, have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

1.2
Turnover

Turnover comprises revenue recognised by the company in respect of goods and services supplied during the year, exclusive of Value Added Tax and trade discounts.

1.3
Intangible fixed assets and amortisation
Amortisation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of the asset as follows:

Sugar Beet Quota   -  25% per annum straight line

1.4
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation less depreciation.  Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Freehold property
-
2% per annum straight line
Plant & machinery
-
8.33% SL and 15% reducing balance
Motor vehicles
-
25%  per annum reducing balance
Fixtures & fittings
-
15%  per annum reducing balance
Office equipment
-
25% to 33% per annum reducing balance
Other fixed assets
-
25%  per annum reducing balance

1.5
Revaluation of tangible fixed assets

As permitted by the transitional provisions of the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008) the company has elected not to adopt a policy of revaluation of tangible fixed assets.  The company will retain the book value of land and buildings, previously revalued at 1 December 2002 and will not update that valuation.

1.6
Investments

Investments held as fixed assets are shown at cost less provision for impairment.

1.7
Government grants

Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are treated as deferred income and released to the Profit and loss account over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. Other grants are credited to the Profit and loss account as the related expenditure is incurred.

1.8
Pensions

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year.
