The following reproduces the text of the report prepared for the members in respect of the LLP's annual unaudited financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements |
for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Holdingham Farms LLP is registered in England and Wales. The LLP's registered number and registered office address can be found on the General Information page. |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Turnover |
Turnover represents the value of crops sold during the year and the value of the Single Payment attributable to the year. |
Turnover is recognised when goods are sold. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Freehold property | - |
Plant and machinery | - |
Freehold property represents land which is farmed by the partnership. It is not a depreciating asset and therefore no depreciation is charged on it. The land is held at fair value and is subject to regular revaluations. |
Stocks |
Stocks have been valued professionally in accordance with agricultural practice. |
Members' participation rights |
Members' participation rights are the rights of a member against the LLP that arise under the members' agreement (for example, in respect of amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed, remuneration and profits). |
Members' participation rights in the earnings or assets of the LLP are analysed between those that are, from the LLP's perspective, either a financial liability or equity, in accordance with FRS 102. A member's participation right results in a liability unless the right to any payment is discretionary on the part of the LLP. |
Amounts subscribed or otherwise contributed to members, for example members' capital are classed as equity if the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment to members. If the LLP does not have an unconditional right, such amounts are classified as liabilities. |
Where profits are automatically divided as they arise, so the LLP does not have an unconditional right to refuse payment, the amounts arising that are due to members are in the nature of liabilities. They are therefore treated as an expense in the Profit and Loss Account in the relevant year. To the extent that they remain unpaid at the year end, they are shown as liabilities in the Balance Sheet. |
Conversely, where profits are divided only after the decision by the LLP or its representative, so that the LLP has an unconditional right to refuse payment, such profits are classed as an appropriation of equity rather than as an expense. They are therefore shown as a residual amount available for discretionary division among members in the Profit and Loss Account and are equity appropriations in the Balance Sheet. |
Other amounts applied to members, for example remuneration paid under an employment contract and interest on capital balances, are treated in the same way as all other divisions of profits, as described above, according to whether the LLP has, in each case, an unconditional right to refuse payment. |
All amounts due to members that are classified as liabilities are presented in the Balance Sheet within 'Loans and other debts due to members' and are charged to the Profit and Loss Account within 'Members' remuneration charged as an expense'. Amounts due to members that are classified as equity are shown in the Balance Sheet within 'Members' other interests'. |
3. | EMPLOYEE INFORMATION |
The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2022 - NIL). |
