l Accounting policie5
Sumtnary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policie5 applied in the preparaiion of these financial statements are set out below.
These policies have been con51Stently applied to all the years presente(L unless otherwise stated.
Staten]ent of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charilies..
Statement of Recommended Practice (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the
Financial Reporting Siandard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)) (issued in October 2019)
(Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland
(FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation
Carers, Support (Bexley) meets ihe definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are
initially recognised at historical cost or trdnsaciion value unless otherwise ststed in the relevant accounting
policy notes.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material
uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to
continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date
of approval of the financial statements.
Incon]e and endowments
Voluntary income including donations. gifts. legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general
nature is recognised w.hen the charity has entitlement io the income, it is probable that the income will be
received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donations and legacies
Donations are recognised ￿'hen the charit), has been noiified in ￿ltIng of both the amount and settlement date.
In th¢ cvent that a donation is subject to condition5 that tequiie a lev¢1 of p¢rforniaiice by the charit), befor¢ th¢
charity is entiiled to the funds, the income is delerred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully
met, or the fuifilment of those Conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these
conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Grants receivable
Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants
have been met. Where perforn)ance conditions are attached to the grnnt and are yet to be met, the income is
recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.
Page 12

Carers, Support (Bexley)
Iyotes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2024
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable
settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable
expenditure heading that a￿gregate similar costs to ihat category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to
particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources. with central staff
costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use.
Other support costs are allocated based on ihe spread of staff costs.
Charitable activilies
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services
for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an
indirect nature necessary to support them.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised based on the accrual tnodel and are measured at the fair value of the a55et
received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue
are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are
recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is
r¢cognis¢d as deferred income.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and
therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the
charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories
covered by Chapter ) Part I l of the Corporation Tax Act 201 O or Sectioii 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable
Gains Act 1992. 10 the extent thai such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

depreclation and subsequent accumulated impainnent losses.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to WTite off the cost or valuation, less any estimated
residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows=
Asset class
Furniture & equipment
Depreciation method and rate
Straight line 200/0
Trade debtors

course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initiall}, at the transactiOT] price. They are sub5equentl}' measured at amortised cost

debtors is established when there is objective evidevjce that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due

business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not haTre an
unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period. to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve
