**BUSY BEES PRE-SCHOOL Treasurers Report For the** 

**Annual General Meeting – 2024** 

## **- Income and Expenditure in the 2023 2024 financial year** 

The report shows an income over expenditure pre-school running figure of £5273 (2023 £17142) to the financial year ending January 2024.  This figure includes £1715 in depreciation costs calculated as 30% of the net book value of the building. 

Fees and grant funding increased during the course of the year due to the pre-school due to an increase in the uptake of sessions.  This may in part be due to the increased eligibility of parents for extended 30 hour funding. 

The movement on each of the income and expenditure categories is shown on the Income and Expenditure report. 

Staffing expenditure has increased significantly, however, this is to be expected with the increased numbers of children within sessions.  Note that part of the manager’s staffing cost is being charged back to another setting within the area whom the manager was supporting for most of the financial year. 

## - Fund Raising in the 2023 2024 financial year 

Overall a total of £1033 was raised from which £1101 was spent, leaving a net deficit amount of £68 which together with the fundraising deficit brought forward from 2022-2023 leave a total amount to carry forward to 2024-2025 of minus £344. 

## **- Balance Sheet Report for the 2023 2024 financial year** 

The Balance sheet shows the asset figures for the 2023-2024 financial year, compared with the previous financial year. 

Total assets (including the value of the building) of £63246 were brought forward from the previous financial year.  Surplus expenditure over income in the 2023-2024 financial year added to this figure gives a total asset figure as at January 2024 of £68713.  The current asset figure (bank account balances less liabilities) has increased from £58188 to £65713. 

## Contingency for Closure amounts 

The Early Years Alliance recommends that the Pre-school keep three months running costs plus the cost of redundancy pay in hand, approximately £58761 calculated as detailed at the bottom of the balance sheet.  This figure includes Hive demolition costs and ground refurbishment. 

This year the current assets held, taking into account other restricted amounts to be carried forward for fundraising, EYPP,DAF and ISF funding, are sufficient to cover the contingency amount resulting in **£3648 allocated to the unrestricted general fund** .  It should be noted that the general fund is in a significantly better position than the previous year and any necessity to close should hopefully be covered by insurances that are in place.
