## **2.2 INCOME**
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
## **Recognition of income**
• the charity becomes entitled to the resources; • it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; • the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless **Offsetting** required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income **Grants and donations** recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in **Legacies** the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. **Government grants** The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the **Tax reclaims on** donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift **donations and gifts** and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. **Contractual income and** This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or **performance related** services or met the performance related conditions. **grants** Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be **Donated goods** exchanged) unless impractical to do so. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.

They are valued at cost.
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
## **Investments**
Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments
## **Stocks and work in**
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value.
## **progress**
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock.
Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.
Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
## **Debtors**
The charity has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash **Current asset** and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on **investments** deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity of loss than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short-term cash commitments as they fall due.
They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.

## **Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)**
## **Note 29 Additional Disclosures**
**The following are significant matters which are not covered in other notes and need to be included to provide a proper understanding of the accounts. If there is insufficient room here, please add a separate sheet.**
Friends House Moscow (internationally) is a collaboration between the U.K. charitable company Friends House Moscow, and a 501(c)3 nonprofit in the USA, Friends House Moscow Support Association (FHMSA). Both bodies raise funds and conduct charitable activity in Russia and Ukraine. The collaboration takes the form of a coalition or 'partnership of equals' of charities working together for a common purpose, as described in Charity Commission document CC34.
The work is coordinated via a Quaker body, the Friends House Moscow International Board, on which both charities are represented. The International Board sets strategy and makes funding decisions for the work as a whole. The British and American charities act jointly in accordance with the decisions of the Board. Thus they are held jointly and individually accountable for the expenditure of funds raised.
As part of its charitable activity, Friends House Moscow makes project grants to small NGOs in Russia. These grants are often made in cash, as are payments for other programme expenses such as fees to translators. For this reason the British Charity runs a cash account in Moscow denominated in Russian Roubles (RUB).
For operational efficiency and convenience, a significant portion (but not necessarily the total) of FHMSA's funds for use in Russia is channelled through the rouble cash account and/or the sterling bank account of the British Charity. Funds originating from FHMSA appear in the British accounts and are shown in the SOFA as a separate material item.
The British Charity does not act as an agent for FHMSA within the meaning of SORP FRS 102 section 19. Nor is there any formal joint venture or other consortium arrangement. The British Charity acts as a principal in that its trustees have discretion as to how the funds are used; however in practice all charitable expenditure is subject to joint decision making between the two bodies, as minuted in the meetings of the International Board conducted under Quaker Business Method.
Under this arrangement, funds from FHMSA that flow via the British accounts are shown in the American (FHMSA) accounts as a donation to the British Charity. In the British accounts (this document) the funds are shown as a separate material item of income (SOFA line S05) and described as "Grant from Friends House Moscow Support Association (nonprofit in USA)".

## **Examiner’s Statement for 2023 Accounts**
Finally I think I can say that this is a fair record of the accounts for the above charity. Hard working and committed friends have eventually overcome the considerable difficulties that have been presented to them, for which they deserve much praise.
The problems have been both in this country and in Russia, the destination of much of the funds, which have greatly furthered the workings of peace in the various extremely worthwhile projects that have been supported. In this country friends have coped with the sad death of a treasurer and the lack of people who have the time, energy, experience and persistence to follow processes through properly, and a few that had that energy, had run out of steam! However the persistence needed is now being found by a few noble friends.
In Russia the extreme difficulties of allocating funds, due to the many restrictions now in place, have been almost insurmountable. Now, I believe that the only methods, which some intrepid friends have found, have stretched the bounds of acceptable risk to the limits. The evidence that funds have reached the intended destinations has now been found thankfully- _This is the crux of the whole purpose of the accounts._ In following years the tracking of funds must be much more consistent and language used to show where money (particularly the larger amounts, say over £500 or £1000) is being sent to, who it goes through, where it arrives and what it’s for, must be much plainer- transfers, exchange values, account names, the difference between vouchers and actual receipts (where possible in English at the important stages), management/administration, Quaker education/development or named projects.
However even if all this was done perfectly, because of the methods that now have to be used, the Board needs to think very seriously whether the line of what’s acceptable in accounting terms is being crossed at any one stage. Friends House Moscow, its staff and all the people on the way, do incredibly valuable work in an honest and very well intended way, but it is imperative that the Board weigh up the risks that all this now incurs.
