TON YOUTH CE
Our respon5ibiltiles for the audit of tbe 5tstements
Our obj¢dIV￿ arc to obtain reasonable about wh¢thcr the fjnancial statements as a whole ar¢ fr¢¢ from material
MI￿18t¢ment. whether due to fraud or enor. and lo issu¢ a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion.
Re&son8ble ￿suranCe 15 a hwh level of assurance. but ig not a guaranlee that an audit condu¢t¢d in 8ecord8nce with ISAS
(UK) will always detect 8 material rni55tatement when it exists. Misstatements ¢an arise from fraud or emr and are
considered material if. individually or In the aggregate, they could re&sonabty be expected to intluen(% the economic
decisions of users tsk¢n on the basis of these financial st8t¢m¢n
The exlenl to which our procedures are capable of detseting I￿gU]dritieS. inclrbjtng fraud i8 detailed below:
Based on our understAndin8 of the charity and its activities, and through discussion with the trusle¢s and Tnanagemen( we
ideThtified the principal risks of material misstatezn¢nt b¢)th at th¢ fu)ancial s¢atem¢n¢ level and at the a58ertion levd.
We considered the5¢ riskg in th¢ light of various factors includin8 th¢ level of complexity, subjectivity. uncetsinty.
polentipl mgnagement bias, fraud, mAleriality and any other relevant faclvrs. W¢ wnsid¢r¢d th¢ ￿tellt to which thes¢
would have 4moterial IMp￿t on the fthancial st&tements and designed our audit work acc(Jrdin81y.
In idendfylng and Bsse&4ing risks of material misstatanent in respect of ittegul8rities, includin8 fraud and
nim-eomplianre wlth law5 and regulations, ow procedures in¢lud¢d th¢ followin8;
- We obtained an under8tanding of the le8al and re8ulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on those laws
and regularions that had & maleriul effect on the fjnuncial statements or that had ll fiindamentsl effect on the operations of
the charity from our profesyional and sector experience.
. W¢ p¢rfomied analytl¢AI pro¢¢duTe4 to identify ony Unu￿￿1 or un¢xpected relationships Ihat may indicate risks of
materiol misslat￿nent due to fraud. and reviewed Si￿lficallt or unusual transactions to identify their underlyin8
Supporting ralionale
- We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. and mAde direct enquiries of management and
the board of trusteos conc4rnin8 the charity's poli¢i¢s 9nd proceduros relating to:
o Identifying, ¢vaiua¢ing* and ¢omplying with Iaw$ and re8ul￿t0ns and wh￿h¢r they were aware of thy ittslances of
nijn-compliance.
o Detecting and respondlng to the risk4 of frnud and whether they have knowled8e of any acttMI, suspectr& or alleged
fraud:
o The internal contro]8 established to miti8ats risks r¢]aled ts ftaud or nffiw¢ompli#nce with laws and regutailons.
In addres5tng the risk of fraud through management ove￿Ide of controls. we tested the appropriateness of joumal entries
and other adjusttnents, ￿essed whether the judg¢ments made in making accountin8 ¢Stimateg were indicative of
potential bias tested SI￿lficant transactions that were unwual or those outside the nornial course of busineys.
We also
- discwed and teviewcd the tharity5 buslness model and fonvard planning to gssess going concern
- communicated applic4ble laws ond regulations throughout the audit team and remained Blert to ony indications of
non-complianre throughout the audiL
- reviewed the f￿ancial statement dis¢losur¢s ond talted these to supporting d￿umentaliOn to assess compliance with
appllcable laws and re8ulations.
- Carried out substantive testing on income and expenditure
- Rtrperfornied reconciliations of control accoun￿ and rernlculated items such as depreciation
Because of the iDhereDt limitstions of an audiL there is a risk th8t we will not detect a]1 irre8ularitie5. IT￿]Uding those
leading to amaterial mis5tatemertt in the fman¢ial stalements or noTrcompli8nce with ttgulation.
