## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The income for the year has increased to £203,969 (£73,676 in 2020). A large proportion of this was to fund capital development costs so although costs have increased it is not in the same proportion. The spend for the year of £93,970 (£87,943 in 2020) has led to a surplus of £109,999 (deficit of £14,268 in 2020). 

## Risk management 

The Cornwall Council, PLUS and Positive People community provision representatives have examined the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to minimise or mitigate these. The trustees will continue to review potential risks on a regular basis and will take further action to minimise or mitigate these risks as required. All Covid precautions have been reviewed with Environmental Health and The Cornwall Covid Team. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**

**Swamp Circus Trust Limited INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Swamp Circus Trust Limited** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Swamp Circus Trust Limited for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Summary Income and Expenditure Account, the Balance Sheet and the related notes. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act. 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the 2006 Act ; or 

- the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements under section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102). 

During the course of my examination I have noted that there is an element of the Chyan Development matched funding which the trustees believe can be transferred to unrestricted funds but there is no written approval of this from the donor. This value of £31,245 is significant in terms of ensuring unrestricted funds are healthy. 

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Page 10 



**Swamp Circus Trust Limited NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life: 

|estimated useful life:||
|---|---|
|Leasehold property|5% Straight line|
|Plant and machinery<br>including motor vehicles|10% Straight line|
|Motor Vehicles|25% Reducing balance|
|Office Equipment|25% Straight line|



## **Stocks** 

Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market. 

## **Trade and other debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management. 

## **Trade and other creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

Page 11 



**Swamp Circus Trust Limited NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** 

## **Leased assets** 

Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. 

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases. 

Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs. 

Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets. 

Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis. 

## **Pension costs** 

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds. 

## **Statement of cash flows** 

The charity is exempt from preparing a statement of cash flows on the grounds that it is a small charity 

## 2 **Company status** 

The company is a private company limited by guarantee and consequently does not have share capital.
