Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.

Basis of Independent examiners’ report

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and the seeking of explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

MANCHESTER JUNIOR GIRLS SCHOOL

Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 August 2020

1 Accounting policies

1.1 Basis of accounting

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (SORP 2005) the FRSSE and the Charities Act 2011.

1.2 Income

Voluntary income, contributions and donations are accounted for as received by the charity. No permanent endowments have been received in the year.

1.3 Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity and 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:

Portacabin Buildings 5% per annum straight line basis over 20 years Furniture & Equipment 15% on written down value

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired under finance leases and hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the Charity. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors net of the 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 a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to profit and loss account as incurred.

1.5 Value Added Tax

Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and as such is included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.

1.6

Management and administration expenditure

Expenditure on management and administration of the charity includes all expenditure not directly related to the charitable activity or fundraising ventures. This includes costs of running office premises, staff salaries for administrative staff and accountants fees.
