in Stock and "Income from other trading activilies" Upon sale. the value of stock is charged against

l Accounting Poli¢ies (Continued)
SummAry of significant accounting policies (Continued)
Expenditure recognition
All expenditure is accounted for on an a¢en￿lS basis and has been classified under headings that
aggregate all ¢osts related io the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or
constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be
required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the
following headin8S'.
Charitable activities
Raising funds
Other expenditure represents those items not falling inio the above categories.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense againsi ihe activity for which the expenditure arose.
Support ¢osts allocation
Support costs are those ihai &ssisi the work of the charity but do not directly represeni charitable
activities and include offi¢e Cosis, governance costs and administrnlive costs. They are incurred
directly in support of expendilure on ihe objecls of the charity.
Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contribulions and do not include the costs
of disseminaiing infomialion in support of the charitable activities. The analysts of these costs
are included in noie 5.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed asseis are $￿ed at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates cal¢ulat¢d
to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less capital grant received and their e5timaied residual
value over expected useful lives on the following basis:.
Freehold property
Fixtures, fittings and equipment
Not depreciated
Between 500/0 and l OOO/
The freehold property is not dep￿lated since il is the opinion of ihe Management Board that it's
market value is in excess of its book value. It is a requirement from ihe Companies Act 2006 and
FRS102 to charge depreciation on all tangible fixed a55els. bul in the opinion of the management
board, Ihe valuation as stated provides a true and fair view.
The varying depreciation rate for fixtures, fittings and equipment is justifiable as the composition of
some of these assets wear more than others. The rate of application is decided by the Management
Board.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the charity has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result
of a past event, It is probable that an outflow of ewnomic benefits will be required in settlement
and the amount can be reliably estimated.
LeAses
Rentals payable or receivable under operating leases are charged to the SOFA on a Straight line basis
over the period of the lease.
