Independent Examiners Report to the Trustees of

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of The Parish of St Mary Magdalene with St John the Evangelist, Hucknall
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the church for the year ended 31 December 2022 which are set out on pages 2 to 12.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and 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 confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and contents of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of the independent examination.
I have no concerns and 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2022
1 Accounting Policies
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 together with the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102): ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities, Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102 the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)’ , FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (effective October 2019) and the Charities Act 2011.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of FRS 102 Section 1A Small Entities.
The church constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of the land and buildings (included within tangible fixed assets) and investment assets, which are all shown at market value.
The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their main affiliation to another body, nor those that are informal gatherings of church members.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented.
Funds
General funds represent the funds of the Parish Church Council and are available for application on the general purposes of the PCC. These include funds designated for a particular purpose by the PCC.
Restricted funds are those funds that must be spent on restricted purposes. Endowment funds are where the capital must be retained. Details of the funds held are provided in note 9 and 1
The closing fund balances have been agreed for the year ended 31 December 2022.

for the year ended 31 December 2022
Incoming Resources
Voluntary income and capital resources
receivable under covenant or gift aid is recognised only when received. Tax recoverable on covenanted or gift aid donations is recognised when the donation is recognised. Grants and legacies to the PCC are accounted for as soon as the PCC is notified of its legal entitlement, the amount due is quantifiable and its ultimate receipt by the PCC is reasonably certain. Funds raised by fetes, garden parties and similar events are accounted for gross. Sales of books and magazines from the church bookstall are accounted for gross.
Other Income
Rental income from the letting of church premises is recognised when the rental is due. Parochial fees due to the PCC for weddings, funerals etc are accounted for on an event by event basis.
Income from Investment
Dividends are accounted for when due and payable, and interest entitlements are accounted for as they accrue. Tax recoverable on such income is recognised in the same accounting year.
Income from legacies
Legacies are recognised only when received.
Income from Grants
Grant income is recognised when received, or rewarded if that reward creates a binding obligation to the PCC
Gains and losses on investments
Realised gains or losses are recognised when investments are sold. Unrealised gains or losses are accounted for on revaluation of investments at 31 December.
Resources expended
Grants
Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, or when awarded, if that award creates a binding obligation on the PCC.
Activities directly related to the work of the Church
The diocesan parish share is accounted for when due. Any parish share unpaid at 31 December is provided for in these financial statements as an operational (though not a legal) liability and is shown as a creditor in the Balance Sheet.

Fixed Assets
Consecrated property and movable church furnishings
Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the financial statements by S 96(2) (a) of the Charities Act 2011.
Moveable church furnishing held by the vicar and churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and which require a faculty for disposal are accounted for as inalienable property unless consecrated. All expenditure incurred during the year on consecrated or beneficed buildings, individual items under £2,000 or on repair of movable church furnishings is written off.
Other Land and Buildings
Other land and buildings held on behalf of the PCC for its own purposes is valued at market value. No depreciation is charged against such properties, but any expenditure on maintenance or improvement is written off as incurred.
Other Fixtures, Fittings and Office Equipment
Equipment used within the church premises is depreciated on a straight line basis over its estimated life. Individual items of equipment with a purchase price of £2,000 or less are written off when the asset is acquired.
Investments
Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains or losses arising in the revaluation and disposals throughout the year.
Current assets
Amounts owing to the PCC at 31 December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that they prove uncollectable.
Stock
Stock is valued on a FIFO basis at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
