## **ASHBOURNE METHODIST CHURCH** Church Council Meeting – 9[th] February 2022 ## Finance Report ## **1. Charitable Donations** Charitable donations totalling £7430 for the year 2021/2022 are proposed to be made as per below. Under the established rules 10% of the Church’s receipts is donated to selected charities, with a proportion made by Cornerstone equivalent to 10% of their contribution to the Church funds. Unfortunately, due to Covid Cornerstone was unable to contribute to the Church in the financial year 2020/2021, however it is proposed that £500 is allocated to Cornerstone to decide the recipients. It is also proposed that the individual donations stay as per last year’s amounts with a contingency kept aside for any donation requests during the year. Any contingency unallocated at the end of the year would then be added to next year’s giving ## **ASHBOURNE METHODIST CHURCH BUDGET 2021/22** ||2016/1

**0**| ## **2. Budgets** The 2021/2022 Budget has been prepared assuming there are no closures due to Covid in the year. Cornerstone and Gateway are now open & beginning to get back to some sort of normality. For both these contributors I have budgeted the same this year as last, but these figures should be considered upon as the minimum as we look forward to starting to recover from the £21507 deficit of last year and getting the Church back on track. Refer to Appendix A for analysis ## **3. Church Accounts** The examination of the year end accounts by Coates & Partners has now been completed satisfactorily. The first part of the year was hard for the Church financially, due to Covid. Although both Cornerstone and Gateway are now open for business, they were unable to contribute to the Church in this financial year. Cash offerings & letting income were also down. Furlough claims of £6k helped towards reducing the total loss to £21k. Although the amount for stated for Gift Aid has been claimed, the monies have not yet been received. The loss of £21507 was £4,443 lower than expected. It was mainly due to the removal of the Family Worker post, although there was an increased cost of the installation of the Zoom system and the technology connected with it. Due to the regular standing order payments from the Church members and the setting up of “Donate” the giving has been regular and the ongoing support is greatly appreciated. Refer to Appendix B for analysis ## **4. Reserves** 2 Trustees are required to review and approve the reserves policy alongside the annual accounts Refer to Appendix C for analysis 3 APPENDIXA-ASHBOURNE METHODSTCHURCH BUDGET 202V22 INCOfvE DirecttD Bark SwKlayOfÈriros TaxRefinJed Irte￿5t GiftDay Letiiryjsli￿ GatRthOY￿rt) Dor￿￿'0r￿￿lrs Ott*r FLr(Iraisiro MiscdLireo HMRC I RS Fuloujh Church Fwxls Su￿T0￿1 CoffÈtstorÈ Dorwtior6 Gate￿￿YD0r£ti0rs LuKh CILb DoTr3tior TiyfAL Dork4tor5 To Pass On Totsl ReceliX5 70.681 70.681 3,630 70.LKK) 16.(KX) 7(￿) 16.(XK) 150 149 149 7,5(M) 2.5CX) 7,455 7.455 7.309 30 7.5(K) 30 6,069 9.5(K) 9,5(K) 750 250 AS 185 185 £W7 EXPENDrruRE AssessrrErt Dorot'or6 F￿rn Clurh Fw(Is Repair5 & EqupfrErt Caretsknro & G￿L￿15 Mairterorce c￿arir0 Maieriafs Utilities Irslrarre Farrilywother AdiErtisiro Alpha & Cou5es CtrikltErts CILts ConmJityTr3n5ftJrt Librnry MLSIC & Wor5Fip Ne￿5￿trer Ph)tocopier ste￿￿rds Bu5arWiscelL3rEoLsKorljThprry_ Pawoll adnin IStperKI PrDfessiork31 Fees CoryrrLricatior6 Ctrurh w￿keTh Fk)¥%er FLrKI Payiro1ts su￿T0￿1 D0Tr3b'ors Pa55ed On 59.(XX) 7,041 10.349 8.785 432 6,157 -59.(KX) -7.041 -10,349 -8.785 -432 -6.157 -3,870 -10,122 -614 60.(XKJ 7.430 io,(xKJ 8,5(K) io.(KKJ 8,5(K) 25,(KK) 1.3(X) 250 1.3 3LK) l(K) 10,122 614 375 -375 ILK) -1.301 -2.281 250 i(K) 562 -562 .360 -5.069 5.ffi9 250 5(K) 5(KJ £llo 185 117.1(S -185 .117.105 **APPENDIX B -** ASHBOURNE METHODIST CHURCH ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR END 31 AUGUST 2021 **----- Start of picture text -----**
