7 **The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Paignton Working Name: Paignton Parochial Church Council Reg No: 1128706** ## **Annual report of the Parochial Church Council for the year ended 31[ST] December 2021** ## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31[st] December 2021** ## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 together with applicable standards and the Charities (SORP 2019). The Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for investment assets which are shown at market value. The Accounts include all the transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include accounts of church groups that owe their affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members. ## **Fund Accounting** _Endowment_ funds are funds, the capital of which must be retained either permanently or at the PCC’s discretion; the income derived from the endowment is to be used either as a restricted or unrestricted income funds depending upon the purpose for which the endowment was established in the first place. _Restricted_ Funds comprise (a) income from endowments which is to be expended only on the restricted purposes intended by the donor and (b) revenue donations or grants for a specific PCC activity intended by the donor. Where these funds have unspent balances, interest on their pooled investment is apportioned to the individual funds on an average balance basis. _Unrestricted_ funds are income funds which are to be spent on the PCC’s general purposes. _Designated_ funds are general funds set aside by the PCC for use in the future. Project funds are designated for particular projects for administration purposed only. Funds designated as invested in fixed assets for the PCC’s own use abated in line with assets’ annual depreciation charges in the SOFA. Designated finds remain unrestricted and the PCC will move any surplus to other general funds. ## **Income** Planned giving, collections and similar donations are recognised when received. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants and legacies are accounted for when the PCC is entitled to the use of the resources, their ultimate receipt is considered reasonably certain and the amounts due are reliably quantifiable. Dividends are accounted for when declared receivable, interest as and when accrued by the payer. All incoming resources are accounted for gross. ## **Expenditure** Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding or constructive obligation on the PCC. The diocese parish share expected to be paid over is accounted for when due. 8 ## **The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Paignton Working Name: Paignton Parochial Church Council Reg No: 1128706** **Annual report of the Parochial Church Council for the year ended 31[ST] December 2021** All other expenditure is generally recognised when it is incurred and is accounted for gross. ## **Fixed assets** Consecrated and benefice property is not included in the accounts in accordance with s.10(2)(a) and (c) of the Charities Act 2011. Movable church furnishings held by the vicar and the churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are inalienable property, listed in the church’s inventory, which can be inspected (at any reasonable time). For anything acquired prior to 2000 there is insufficient cost information available and therefore such assets are not included in the financial statements. Subsequently no individual item has cost more than £1000 so all such expenditure has been written off when incurred. Due to the age of the building, no cost information is available for the St John’s Church Hall, or St Andrews Community Centre, so both properties are included at a deemed cost of £1. Investments are valued at market value at 31 December 2021. 9 ## **The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of Paignton Working Name: Paignton Parochial Church Council Reg No: 1128706** ## **Annual report of the Parochial Church Council for the year ended 31[ST] December 2021** ## **2.
