The trustee considers that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011, s.144(2) (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in, any material respect: - the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or - the financial statements do not accord with those records; or - the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached. signed on 27/04/2026, 14:48:24 BST ## **S Nicholson BA (Open) (Hons) FMAAT Oakleigh Accounting** Knowle House 4 Norfolk Park Road SHEFFIELD S2 3QE 5 CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST APOSTOLIC ## **STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025** ||N**otes**|**Unrestricted**|**Restricted**|**Total**|Total| |---|---|---|---|---|---| |||**funds**|**funds**|**2025**|2024| |||£|£|**£**|£| |**Incoming resources from generated**|||||| |**funds**|||||| |Grants and donations|2|51,912|-|**51,912**|20,726| |Investment income|3|816|-|**816**|682| |Other Income||12,221||**12,221**|3,837| |Incoming resource from charitable activities|4|-|-|**-**|-| |**Total incoming resources**||64,949|-|**64,949**|25,245| |**Resources expended**|5||||| |Raising funds|||||| |Charitable activities||32,103|-|**32,103**|29.104| |Depreciation||5,149|-|**5,149**|-| |Other||500|-|**500**|-| |**Total resources expended**||37,752|-|**37,752**|29.104| |**Net income/(expenditure) for the year**||27,197|(0)|**27,197**|(3,859)| |**Net movement in Funds**|||||| |Fund balances at brought forward

It has a registered charity number 1081469. Charity administration details can be found on the reference page of these financial statements. The charity's aims and activities are explained in the trustees' report. Its principal office is 65 Lundwood Grove, Owlthorpe, Sheffield, S20 6SR ## **1.2 Basis of preparation** The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic if Ireland (FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£) ## **1.3 Going Concern** After reviewing the charity’s budgets, forecasts and cash flow projections, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. ## **1.4 Incoming resources** Donations and grants received are allocated between restricted and unrestricted funds and between the difference types of incoming resources according to their nature. Grants for revenue expenditure and capital expenditure are recognised in the statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. Other incoming resources, including investment income, are recognised in the statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. ## **1.5 Resources expended** Resources expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred and include irrecoverable VAT. Expenditure is allocated to the appropriate headings in the Statement of Financial Activities according to the purpose for which the costs are incurred. Charitable activities include costs incurred directly in the delivery of the charity’s objectives and services, together with an appropriate allocation of support costs. Governance costs comprise those costs incurred in the governance of the charity and its assets, including compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements and the oversight of the charity by the trustees. ## **1.6 Interest Receivable** 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 institution with whom the funds are deposited. 8 CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST APOSTOLIC ## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025** ## **1.7 Taxation** The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 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 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. ## **1.8 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** Tangible fixed assets costing £1,500 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost. Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is provided on the following bases: Fixtures and Fittings - 4 years straight line Office Equipment - 4 years straight line Computer Equipment - 3 years straight line ## **1.9 Financial Instruments** The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. ## **1.10 Investments** Fixed asset investments are stated at market value. ## **1.11 Fund Accounting** General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements. Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund. 9 CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST APOSTOLIC ## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025** |2.
