NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEAR ENDED 31st December 2021

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the financial statements.

(a) Accounting Convention

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention and on a going concern basis, which is dependent upon the availability of adequate continued funding. The nature of the Association’s funding is inherently uncertain as it is only dependent on membership contributions and fundraising projects each year. Should funding be discontinued in future years, the Association would have to find other sources of funding or significantly curtail its activities.

The accounts have been prepared in compliance with and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Charity Accounts.

(b) Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets less their estimated residual value over their expected useful life on the following basis:

Equipment

25% per annum straight line

(c) Income

Income is brought into the account on the basis of amounts received in the accounting period, or receivable at the accounting date and no provision is made for any actual or contingent liability to repay surplus grants. Voluntary income and donations are accounted for as received by the Association. The income from fundraising ventures is shown gross.

(d) Restricted and Unrestricted Funds

14

Uganda Muslim Community in United Kingdom – Charity Number 1115442

The accounts distinguish between restricted and unrestricted funds. Restricted funds are received from donors and are subject to restrictions on the purposes for which they may be used. Unrestricted funds are those where there are no externally imposed restrictions. They include those freely available to the Association for expenditure or appropriation to reserves for internally designated purposes.
