## **REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS FOR YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2021** 

The Directors present their report with the financial statements of the Company for the period ended 30th September 2021. 

## **Directors:** 

The Directors of the Company served throughout the year in the furtherance of the Objects of the Christian Church of God Pentecostal. 

## **Statement of Director's responsibilities:** 

Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year which gives a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company during that period. In preparing those financial statements the Directors are required to: 

(i) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently, 

(ii) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent, 

(iii) prepare financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. 

The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. In preparing this report the Directors have taken advantage of special provisions of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

I approve the attached statement of financial activities and balance sheet for the year ended 30th September 2021, and confirm that I have made available all information necessary for its preparation. 

The annual report was approved by the Directors of the charity on 5 July 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The Charity has claimed exemptions available in Section 1a of FRS 102 not to prepare a cash flow statement since it is a small charity. 

## **Incoming Resources** 

## _Recognition of Incoming Resources_ 

These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when: 

▪ the charity becomes entitled to the resources; 

- the Directors are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and 

▪ the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability 

## _Incoming Resources with related expenditure_ 

Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resource and related expenditure are reported gross in the SOFA. 

## _Grants and Donations_ 

Grants and Donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. 

## _Tax reclaims on Donations and Gifts_ 

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SOFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate. 

## _Contractual Income and Performance Related Grants_ 

This is only included in the SOFA once the related goods or services has been delivered. 

## _Gifts in Kind_ 

Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as incoming resources when receivable. 

## _Donated Services and Facilities_ 

These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the benefit to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received. 

## _Volunteer Help_ 

The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the Directors' annual report. 

## _Investment Income_ 

This is included in the accounts when receivable. 

## _Investment gains and losses_ 

This included any gain or loss on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 

## **Expenditure and liabilities** 

## _Liability recognition_ 

Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources. 

## _Governance Costs_ 

Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of the Directors' meetings and cost of any legal advice to Directors on governance or constitutional matters.

## **CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF GOD PENTECOSTAL (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 30TH SEPTEMBER 2021** 

## _Grants with performance conditions_ 

Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SOFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. 

## _Grants payable without performance conditions_ 

These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met relating to a grant which remain in control of the charity. 

## _Support Costs_ 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of the resources, eg allocating property cots by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## _Assets_ 

Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity: 

These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £2,500. They are valued at cost or, if gifted, at the value to the charity on receipt. The Charity at present holds no assets which cost above this figure. 

No depreciation is charged to freehold property as the property is maintained to such a standard that the estimated residual value is not less than cost. 

## _Investments_ 

Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange are valued at market value at the year end. Other investment assets are included at Directors' best estimate of market value. 

## _Basis of preparation:_ 

The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis convention (as modified to include the revaluation of investments) in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (SORP 2015), applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006. The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

Bishop Michael Obasuyi received a gross salary of £8,400 (£8,400 : 2020/19). No other payments were made to directors or any persons connected with them during this financial year. No material transaction took place between the organisation and a director or any person connected with them. 

## **11. RISK ASSESSMENT** 

The Directors actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining the free reserves stated, combined with the annual review of the controls over key financial systems carried out on an annual basis will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The Directors have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks. 

## **12. RESERVES POLICY** 

The Directors have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. This is based on the charity's size and the level of financial commitments held. The Directors aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The Directors will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily. 

## **13. PUBLIC BENEFIT** 

The charity acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or ‘aims’ that are for the public benefit. Details of how the charity has achieved this are provided in the Trustees report. The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit before deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

## **CHRISTIAN CHURCH OF GOD PENTECOSTAL (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS** 

Report to the Directors/ Members of the Christian Church of God Pentecostal for year ended 30th September 2021 set out on pages 4 to 11. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees (who are also the Directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act), and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for an independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

1.     which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees requirements:  to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 

have not been met; or 

2.    to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached, other than the concern below. 

Expenses have been categorised mainly from details provided from bank statements because record keeping was not maintained properly, nor was sufficient supporting paperwork kept. Independent Examiners Ltd is working with the charity to improve the situation.
