The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their PTeparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, (United Kingdom Generally AC￿pted Accounting Practice). In our opinion, the accounts.. give a true and fair view ofthe slate of the group's and of the parent charity's affairs as at 3lDe￿Mber 2021 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended-, have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements ol the Charities Act 2011. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Inlemabonal Standards on Auditing IUKI IISAS IUKI} and applicable law. Our re5ponsibilitie5 under th05e standards are further described in the auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the accounts section ofour report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the accounts in the UK. including the FRC'S Elhic81 Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities In accordance with these. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Emphasls of matter- accounts prepared on a bas1$ other than golng concern We draw attentson to the statement regarding going concern in the principal accounting policies. which indicates that the trustees have prepared the accounts on a basis other than a going concern basi5. This is due to the actsvities. assets and liabilities of the charity being transferred to Compton Verney House Charity on 31 March 2022. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. Other infomiation The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report and accounts. other than the accounts and our 8uditorfs report thereon. Our opinion on the accounts does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion Ihereon. In connection with our audit of the accounts, our responsibility is to read the other information and. in doing so, ¢onsider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the accounts or our knowledge obtained in the audit or othe￿iSe appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstalement5, we are required to detemine whether there is a material misstatement in the a¢¢ounls or a material misstatement of the other information. If. based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required lo reF)Ort that fact. We have nothing to reF)Ort in this regard. Compton Verney House Trust 29 Independent auditorfs report on the Ilnanclal ststements 31 December 2021 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF COMPTON VERNEY HOUSE TRUST Icontinuedl Matters on which we are required to report by exceptlon We have nothing lo report in respect of the following matters in ￿latIon to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if. in our opinion.. the information given in the trustees, annual ￿pOrt is inconsistent in any material respect with the accounts,. or sufficient accounting records have not been kept by the parent charity,. or the parent charity accounts are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns. or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responslbllltles of trustees As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control a$ the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of accounts that are free from material misstatement. whether due lo fraud or error. In prepartng the accounts, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group's and the parent charity's ability lo eontinue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters Telaled to going Concern and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but lo do so. Audltor's responsibilities for the audit of the accounts Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assuran￿ about whether the accounts as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and lo issue an auditorfs report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audtt conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstalemenls can arise from fraud or error and are conSide￿d material if. individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these accounts. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design prO￿dureS in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to delecl material misslalements in respect of irregularitie5, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are Capable of detecting irregLslarities. including fraud is detailed below. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non•compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows-. the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team colleclNely had the appropriate competence. capabilities and skills to idenb'fy or recognise non-cornplianee with applicable laws and regulations,. and Compton Verney House Trust 30 Independent auditor's report on the financlal statements 31 December 2021 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF COMPTON VERNEY HOUSE TRUST Icontinuedl Audltor's responsibilities for the audil of the accounts (continued) we obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable lo the group and detemiined that the most significant frameworks which are directty relevant to specific asserbons in the accounts a￿ those that relate to the reporting framework Istalemenl of Recommended Practice.. Accounting and Reporting by Charities prepaiing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republi¢ of Ireland {FRS 1021 and the Charities Act 20111 and those that relate to data protection (General Data Protection Regulation). Vve assessed the susceptibility of the group's accounts lo material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur. by.. making enquiries of management as to their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud- and considering the internal ¢onlrols in place lo mitigate risks of fraud and non-complianee with laws and regulations. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of contro15. we.. performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships.. tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions.. and assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in detemining the accounting estimates for the calcuSation of the annual depreciation charge- the allocation of support costs behveen charitable expenditure categories-, and the estimation of future income and expendilure flows for the purpose of assessing going concern were indicative of potents.al bias. In response to the risk of irre9ularilies and non-compliance with laws and Tegulations, we designed prcKedures wh￿h included, but were not limited to.. reading the minutes of meetings of Ihose charged with governance-, and enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non4ompliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, If any. Material misstalernents that arise due lo fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevanl accounting policy or note. These financial statements consolidate the results of the charity and ils wholly-owned subsidiary Compton Vemey Publications Limited on a line by line basis. Transactions and balances be￿een the charity and its subsidiary have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements. Balances betsveen the companies are disclosed in the notes of the charity's balance sheet.

Publlc benofit entity The Charity meets the definition of a publi¢ benefit entity under FRS 102. Crltl¢al accountlng estlmates and areas of Judgement Preparation of the accounts requires the Govemors and management to make significant judgements and estimates. The items in the accounts where these judgements and estimates have been made include.. • the useful economic lives attributed to tangible fixed assets used to determine the annual depreciation charge-, • the allocation of support cost5 betsveen charitable expenditure ¢ategories', • the estimation of future income and expenditure flows ft>r the purpose of assessing going concern (see below). Golng concem The Governors have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in preparing these financial statements. The Govemors have made th￿S assessment in respect to a period of one year from the date of approval of these financial slalements. As described in the Governors, ￿pOrt, the Charity's assets, liabilities and activities were transferred lo Compton Verney House Charity on 31 March 2022. The GovernoTS have prepared the financial statements on a basis other than a going concern basis. Compton Vemey House Trust 36 Principal accounting poli¢ie$ 31 De¢ember 2021 The Governors acknowledge and recognise the ongoing potential impact of Covid-19 on the future operations of the charity, ils beneficiaries, partners and stakeholders and on wider society. As well as the personal risk to health of ils staff, the charity may lose planned income as the result of the cancellation of events andlor the absence of key personnel, although there may also be some compensating expenditure savings. The reduced opportunities for scheduled face to fa￿ interaction may well impact on the ability lo plan effectively for the medium term but. al the current lime, it is not anlicipaled that the financial solvency of the charity is materially threatened. As detailed in the Governors, report we continue to lake account of the challenges and opportunities that the pandemic poses. This will help ensu￿ Compton Vemey remains relevant and can meet its charitable objects. The Governors do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carryin9 amounts of assels and liabilities within the next reporting period. Incorng Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the fvnds. any performance eondFtions attached to the income have been met. it is probable that the income wll be received and that the amount can be measured reliably. Income from govemment and other grants, whether'capTtal' grants or'revenue, grants. is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance condrtions attached lo the grants have been mel, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Income received in advance of the provision of a SFecified service is deferred until the criteria for income and recognition are met. Interest recelvable Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity., this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the ballk. Fund accounting Restricted funds are lo be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditu￿ which meets these criteria is Gharged to the fund. Unrestricted funds are donats'ons and other income received or generated for the charitable purposes. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Govemors for particular purposes. Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or conslruclive obligation to make a payment to a third party. It is probably that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings.. Cost of raising funds relate tr) the costs incurred by the chafity in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it. as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose. Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of exhibitions undertaken lo further the purposes of the charity and their associated support and governance. Compton Vemey House Trust 37 Principal accounting policies 31 December 2021 Otherexpenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. Allo¢allon of Support and governance ¢osts Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly lo that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and adminislr8tr.on of each activity. comprising the salary and overhead Costs of the central function. is apportioned on the following basis which are an estimate. based on staff time. of the amount attributable to each activity. Cost of raising fvnds 26% Public display of permanent collections 590 SFecial exhibitionslprojects 15% Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity. These costs are associated with conslitulional and slatulory requirements and include any costs associated with the Strategic management of the charity's acts'vilies. Operating leases Rental charges are charged on a slraight-line basis over the term of the lease. Tangible fixed assets Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated lo activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those aclivilies. Assets a￿ reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over ils expected useful life. The depreciation rale5 in use are as follows". Freehold pioperty see below Plant and machinery 4 years Fixtures and fittings Motor vehicles 4 years 5 years The Governors consider the residual value of the freehold property to be at least equal lo ils cost, and therefore there is no depreciation charge on the ptoperty. The Governors carry out a review of the propety at least annually tg ensure there is no indication of an impairment to the propety- The balance sheet includes £21,324,213 for the value of the House and Garden House. However. the cost of the freehold propety includes fit out costs such as gallery lighting. In 2016 new buildings were constructed on the estate and in 2017 an additional propety. Garden House. was purchased by the estate. The Car Park is treated as fil out cost. The assets will be written down to estimated residual value over their expected useful life and depreciated as follows.. New buildings 25 years Fit out costs 10 years Garden House no impairment Compton Vemey House Trust 38 Prfn¢lpal ac¢ountlng pollcles 31 December 2021 Investments Inve51menls are a fom of basi¢ financial instrument and are initially recognised al their transa¢lion value and subsequently measured at their fair value as al the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. Any ehange in fair value will be recognised in the statement of financial activities and any excess of fair value over the historic cost of the investments will be shown as a fair value reserve in the balance sheet. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and shown in the heading"Nel gains Ilossesl on investments. in the statement of financial activities. The charity does not acquire put options. derivatives or other complex financial instruments. Investment In subsldlarles Investments in subsidiaries are at cost. Stocks stocks are staled al the lower of cost and net realisable value. In general, cost is determined on a first in first out basis and includes transport and handling costs. Net realisable value is the price at which stock5 can be sold in the normal course of business after allowing for the costs of realisalion. Provision is made where necessary for obsolete. slow moving and defective stocks. Debtors Trade and other debtors are recognised al the settlement amount due after any trade discount offere(l. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. Cash at bank and In hand Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short temi highty liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. Credltors and provlslons Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated ieliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. Pen$lons Compton Verney operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from Compton Vemey in an independently administered fund. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable under the scheme by Compton Verney to the fund. Compton Verney has no liability under the scheme other than for the payment of those contributions. Since the onset of auto enrolment in April 2015, the charity has been required lo enrol staff who meet sel crtteria based on earnings and age. If new staff meet the criteria they are typically enrolled into the scheme after a 3 months postponement period.
