Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals ba.%its as a liability is incu￿ed. Expendi￿re includes any V AT which
annol be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the slatement of financial aclivilies lo which it
relal¢s'.
expenditure on raising ￿ndS includes the costs of all fundraising acliviti¢s, events. non-charilable
trading activities, and the sale of donaled goods.
expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charily in undertaking activilies
thal further IL% charitable aim% for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support cost% and
cosls relating lo the governance of the charily apportioned io chariiable activilie%.
oiher expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither relaled lo raising funds for the charily nor part
of its expenditure on charitable aclivilies.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs atlributable
lo a single activity are allocal¢d direcily to that aclivily. Shared costs are apportioned between Ihe aclivilies
they conlribule lo on a reasonable, justifiable and Consistent basis.
Tangible Assets
TangFible a44els are initially recorded al ¢041, and .4ub%equenily slated al co%1 le44 any accumulated
depreciation and impairnienl loq%e%. Any tangyible as%et4 carried ai revalued amounis are recorded ai the lair
value ai the dale of revaluation less any %ubsequent a¢¢umulaled depreciation and sub.%equent accumulated
impairnient losses.
An increase in the carying amounl of an atr>sel as a resuli of a revaluation, i.s recognised in oiher recogni4ed
gains and losses, unless il revep•e￿ a chargye for impairnienl that has previously been recogyni%ed as
expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in ihe Ca￿Ing amount of an asset as a
re.%uli of revaluation, is recoginised in otlier recognised gains and losses, except lo which il offsel% any
previous revaluation gain, in which case th¢1055 IS shown within other recognised gains and losses on Ihe
statemenl of financial aclivitie%.
Impalrment of fixed assels
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount
being estimated where such indicators exisl. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the
asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impainnenls are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting
date.
For the purposes of impairnienl testing, when it is not possible lo estimate Ihe recoverable amount of an
individual asset. an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the ¢ash-generating unlt to which the ab5¢t
belong5. The cash-generaling unit is the smallest identifiable group of a%sets that includes the asset and
generates cash inflows thai largely independent of the cash inflows from other assel,s or groups of a58ets.
For impainnent testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition
date, allocated to each of the cash-generaling unils that are expected io benefit from the synergies of the
combination, i￿eSpective of whether oiher assets or liabilitie5 of the charity are a55igned to those units.
