The Come and Play PreSchool 31st July 2024 Notes to Accounts

Notes to the accounts:

  1. Consideration to be given to a separate column for trip expenditure as £252 is in ‘Other’ category

  2. I've added in the interest on the Reserve and 95 Day notice accounts

  3. The different in the receipts and payments on the Bank account page now matches the increase in the overall bank balance and also matches the profit shown on the R&P Accounts

  4. This doesn’t affect the accounts but the amount raised by fundraising and then spent on items must be recorded for the sake of the donors.

Conclusion and observations:

This is a good set of accounts. The loss is to be expected as costs increase and the low numbers of children result in a lower income. Good changed have been made to make the most out of the savings in a Notice bank account. Due to new staff, there is now a reduced need for reserves for redundancies so this can be dipped into to keep the preschool going.
