|1|Principal|Accounting<br>Policies||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
||(a)|Basis ofaccounting||||
|||The financial statements<br>have been prepared<br>in accordance<br>with Accounting<br>and Reporting||by Charities;||
|||Statement<br>of Recommeded<br>Practice for Charites (Second Edition, effective<br>1 Jamaury 2019)and the||||
|||Charities Act 2011.The Charity meets the definition<br>ofa public entity under FRS102. Assets and||||
|||liabilities are intially recognised<br>at historical costs or transaction<br>value, unless otherwise<br>stated<br>in the||||
|||relevant accounting<br>policy.||||
||(b)|Going Concern and COVID-19||||
|||At 31 December 2020 the Trust had Investments<br>totalling E3,221,224 and bank balances,|after taking|||
|||into account debtors and creditors, off339,025.The bank balances alone are in excess of||eighteen||
|||months<br>expenditure<br>so the Trust is in a very strong financial<br>position.||||
|||COVID-19 has impacted<br>on the finances ofthe Trust<br>in three key ways.<br>It has resulted<br>in|a|large degree||
|||ofvolatility<br>in the value ofthe Investment<br>portfolio together<br>with the majority oflisted companies<br>not||||
|||paying<br>their dividends<br>and has also impacted<br>on the beneficiaries<br>ofgrants who are unable||to perform||
|||the works of RVW due to the lockdown<br>measures<br>the Government<br>has put in place.||||
|||For the year through<br>to 31 December 2021 the situation<br>regarding<br>the grants payable for|the trust is|||
|||uncertain<br>due to the ongoing<br>restrictions caused<br>by COVID-19. When these are lifted the|trustees are|||
|||expecting a significant increase<br>in grant applications<br>for the latter part of2021 and through||to 2022.|The|
|||COVID-19 restrictions<br>are also impacting<br>our royalties receivable.||||
|||Consequently<br>the Trustees believe that the use ofthe going concern basis of accounting|in|the||
|||preparation<br>ofthe financial statements<br>is appropriate.||||
||(b)|Fund Accounting||||
|||Unrestricted<br>funds comprise accumulated<br>surpluses<br>and deficits on general funds.<br>They|are available|||
|||for use at the discretion ofthe Board ofTrustees<br>in furtherance<br>ofthe general charitable<br>objectives.|||The|
|||endowment<br>funds represent<br>fixed assets, ofinvestments<br>and copyrights,<br>held by the Trust in order to||||
|||generate<br>income to be used to meet the charitable<br>objectives ofthe trust both annually<br>and||in the future.||
|||Any gains or losses arising on the investments<br>and copyrights<br>form part ofthe fund.||||
||(c)|Investments||||
|||Investments<br>are stated at their middle-market<br>values<br>ruling at the balance sheet date.<br>All|gains and|||
|||losses, both realised and unrealised,<br>are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as|they arise.|||
|||Income arising from these investments<br>is accounted<br>for when<br>it is receivable.||||
||(d)|Depreciation||||
|||The copyright as set out in Note 5to the accounts<br>will be written<br>oif in equal instalments<br>on||a straight|line|
|||basis from 1 November 2009 through<br>to 2028 (when the copyright<br>is due to expire).||||
||(e)|Grants||||
|||Donations are charged to the Statement<br>of Financial Activities<br>in the year when the donation||is confirmed||
|||to the donee.||||
|||Support Costs||||
|||These comprise staff and oflice costs. These costs support the grant-making<br>activity and|are so|||
|||allocated.<br>All support costs are allocated to grant inaking<br>activity. This is because the cost of raising||||
|||funds relates solely to investment<br>manager's<br>fees and does not attract other support costs.||||
||(g)|Governance costs||||
|||Governance<br>costs comprise<br>all costs involving<br>the public accountability<br>ofthe charity and|its compliance|||
|||with regulation<br>and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory<br>audit and||legal fees.||
