Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 28th May 2017

1. Statutory information

Robert Forrest 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 the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Changes in accounting policies
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out
below.

The financial statements for the year ended 28th May 2017 are the first financial statements that
comply with FRS 102 Section 1A for small entities. The date of transition is 29th May 2015.

There has been no impact to the financial statements on the transition date.

Turnover
Turnover represents the total invoice value, excluding value added tax, of sales invoices during the
year. Turnover arising from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of
ownership have passed 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.
Tenants improvements - Straight line over the life of the lease
Tractors and implements - Straight line over 6 years
Motor vehicles - Straight line over 6 years

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment
losses.

Stocks
Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value except for mature breeding stock, which is
on the herd basis. Cost includes all direct expenditure and appropriate proportion of fixed and variable
overheads. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling prices less further costs expected to be
incurred in bringing the stock to completion and disposal.

Financial instruments
The following assets and liabilities are classified as financial instruments - trade debtors, trade
creditors, bank loans and directors' loans.

Bank loans are initially measured at the present value of future payments, discounted at a market rate
of interest, and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Directors' loans (being repayable on demand), trade debtors and trade creditors are measured at the
undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received.

Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period
for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss
in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings.

2. Accounting policies - continued
Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of
Income and Retained Earnings, 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.

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.

Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the
rates of exchange prevailing at the accounting date. Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded
at the date of the transactions. All differences are taken to the Profit and Loss account.

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.

Provisions
Provisions are set up only where it is probable that a present obligation exists as a result of an event
prior to the balance sheet date and that a payment will be required in settlement that can be estimated
reliably. Where material, provisions are calculated on a discounted basis.

Employee benefits
Short term employee benefits, including holiday pay, are recognised as an expense in the Statement of
Income and Retained Earnings in the period in which they are incurred.

Going concern
The directors have considered the company's financial position for a period of 12 months from the date
of signing these financial statements and have reasonable expectation that the company has adequate
resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, they continue to
adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible assets
and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Obligations under such
agreements are included in creditors net of finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance
element of the rental payment is charged to the profit and loss account so as to produce constant
periodic rates of charge on the net obligations outstanding in each period.

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income on a straight line basis over the
lease term.

Investments
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less provision for permanent diminution in value.
