## **Artcore (International) Company No. 03089740 Directors' Report For The Year Ended 31 August 2020** 

The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2020. 

## **Statement of Directors' Responsibilities** 

The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the surplus or deficit of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the directors are required to: 

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. 

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Directors** 

The directors who held office during the year were as follows: Mr Liam Hayhow Ms Naima Karlsson Ms Kim Thomas 

## **Small Company Rules** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to companies subject to the small companies regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006. 

On behalf of the board

## **Artcore (International) Accountant's Report For The Year Ended 31 August 2020** 

In accordance with the engagement letter dated , and in order to assist you to fulfil your duties under the Companies Act 2006, we have compiled the financial statements of the company from the accounting records and information and explanations you have given to us. 

This report is made to the directors in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our work has been undertaken to prepare for approval by the directors the financial statements that we have been engaged to compile, to report to the directors that we have done so, and to state those matters that we have agreed to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's directors for our work or for this report. 

You have acknowledged on the balance sheet as at year ended 31 August 2020 your duty to ensure that the company has kept proper accounting records and to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view under the Companies Act 2006. You consider that the company is exempt from the statutory requirement for an audit for the year. 

We have not been instructed to carry out an audit of the financial statements. For this reason, we have not verified the accuracy or completeness of the accounting records or information and explanations you have given to us and we do not, therefore, express any opinion on the financial statements.

**Artcore (International) Notes to the Financial Statements For The Year Ended 31 August 2020** 

## 1. **Accounting Policies** 

## 1.1. **Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements** 

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the FRS 102 Section 1A Small Entities - The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006. 

## 1.2. **Turnover** 

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added taxes. Turnover includes revenue earned from the sale of goods and from the rendering of services. Turnover is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. 

## **Sale of goods** 

Turnover from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods has transferred to the buyer. This is usually at the point that the customer has signed for the delivery of the goods. 

## **Rendering of services** 

Turnover from the rendering of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract. The stage of completion of a contract is measured by comparing the costs incurred for work performed to date to the total estimated contract costs. Turnover is only recognised to the extent of recoverable expenses when the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably. 

## 1.3. **Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation** 

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases: 

Plant & Machinery Straight Line Motor Vehicles Straight Line

With regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit, and in accordance with the principles, aims and objectives of the Charity itself, the Trustees have considered how best to apply the resources and activities of the Charity in the furtherance of our charitable purpose for the benefit of the public. This charitable purpose can be demonstrated through our maintenance of minimal charges for entrance to exhibitions/performances etc, and also through the low fees charged for artist’s workspace in the premises that we administer. 

This policy is intended to ensure that economic circumstances should not preclude access to, or creation of, the Arts.
