3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Incoming resources

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.

St. Thomas Indian Orthodox Church - Liverpool Internal Audit Report - 2021-2022

I have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of STIOC as of 31/03/2022 and the related statements of activities and cashflow for the year ended. I have reviewed the Income and Expenditure statement for the year ended and confirm that the figures presented therein are correct.

It was our blessing toconsecrateour new church during the time by ourDiocese Metropolitan H.G Mathews Mar Thimothios, assisted byFr. Happy Jacob (Diocese Secretary), Fr Abraham George Cor Episcopa, Fr. Varghese John, Fr, Aby Philip, Fr. Mathew Abraham, Fr. Robin Varghese, Fr Tiji Thankachan, Fr.Josen John, Decan Calvin Poovathur, Fr Peter (Coptic church)and our Vicar Fr. Eldo Varghese.As a parish, it is a great achievement for each members of our church.

I am very glad to know the renovation expense for our church is £322053.02, which is most reasonable and realistic the work held to have a beautiful church as it looks. I would like to give all credit to our Vicar Eldo Achen, who’s vision and leadershipmaintainedby Aji, Sunil, Linz, Cyril, Shajan, Ancy, Nixon, Committee members, building committee members and all of us who spend their valuabletime for various occasions. Also, I would like to thank all the sponsors for the essential apparatus for Holy Sanctuary and Church.

We have received £15840.27 as tax return from HMRC for the financial year202021.We have received £9195.00from the Harvest auction which is also an achievement during the pandemic time. We have received £18605.16 as Church building fund this year.

We have the liability of Loan from HSBC bank (£ 15651), which we must pay monthly from this year. Also there is a personal loan from our members (£13000) which has to be pay off ASAP.

Also, I have a suggestion to think the possibility to celebrate the holy Qurbana in every week, because so many new Orthodox families migrating to our place and nearby to give them an opportunity toattend the holy Qurbanaas on their convenience.

Please note as per HMRC,NI and Charity Commissions, any amount exceedsthe limit of £6396.00 as salary will have to pay Tax and NI to the UK Government, therefore keep an eye on this matter to sustain our credibility.

It is my privilege to thank Trustee Mr. Aji Paul George, Secretary Mr. Sunil Mathew,managing committee members, coordinators of various programmes and all our parish members for their assistance, supportand prayers to make successful of all our activities and the achievement for the financial stability.

Sincerely,

Anil George Internal Auditor

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 31 March 2022

1. General information

The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is St. Thomas Indian Orthodox Church, Mill Lane, West Derby, Liverpool, L12 7JA.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the

charity's purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or

commitment.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Incoming resources

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.

Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial assets held at amortised cost comprise cash and bank in hand, trade debtors and other debtors. A specific provision is made for debts for which recoverability is in doubt. Financial liabilities held at amortised cost comprise all creditors except social security and other taxes.
