statements.
Pension costs and other post-relirement benefits
The charitable company operales a defined contribution pension schefne. Contributions payable to the
Chantable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the
period to which they relate.
Financlal Instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments, and Section
12 '0ther Financial Inslruments Issues, of FRS 102 to all of its financial instrumenls.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to
the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements,
when there is a legally enforceable right to sel off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to
settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Baslc financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at the
transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried al amortiS8d cost using the
effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the
transaclion is measured al the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rale of
interest. Financial assets classified as receivable wlhin one year are not amortised.
Cla8slfl¢atlon of financial Ilabllilies
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual
arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract Ihal evidences a residual interest in
the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilitses, including creditors. loans and are ini11811y recognised at the transaction price
unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where Ihe debt instrument is measured at
Ihe present value of the future payments discounted at a market rale of interest. Financial liabilities
classified as payable within one year are not amortised,
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary
course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is
due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are
initially recognised al transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cosl using the
effective interest method.
Going concern
Al the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the
charity has adequale fesources to continue in operational exislence for the foreseeable future. The
validity of this assumption is on the basis that the charity will continue to be supported by The Church
of God of Prophecy and the congregation. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis
of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
