1 Accounting
Policies
1.1 Basis of Financial Statements
The financial statements
have been prepared
under ihe Church Accounting
Regulations
2008 in accordance
with applicable
accounting
standards
and the current Statement
ofRecommended
Practice, Accounling
and Reporting
by Chadities
and applicable
accounting
standard
FRS102.
The financial statements
have been prepared
under the historical cost convention
except for investment
assets, which are 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 financial
statsmenis
ofchurch groups that owe their main affiliation to another
body or those that are informal
gatherings
of church members,
1.2 Fund Accounting
Endowment
Funds
Christ Church
Higher Bebington
PCC does not benefit from any endowment
funds and so there is no reference to such funds
in these accounts.
Restricted Funds
Restricted funds comprise revenue
donations
or grants for a specific PCC activity
intended
by the donor.
Unrestricted
Funds
Unrestricted
funds are income funds that are to be spent on the PCC's general purposes.
Designated
Funds
Christ Church
Higher Bebington
PCC has no funds which are designated
and thus no such information
will be found
in these accounts.
1.3Incoming Resources
Planned
giving, collections
and similar donations
are recognised
when received. Tax refunds ars recognised
when the incoming resource to
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 readily quantifiable.
Dividends
are accounted
for when declared receivable;
interest
which
as and
when accrued
by the payer.
All incoming resources ars accounted
for gross.
1.4 Resources Expended
Grants and donations
ars accounted for when paid over or when awarded
ifthat award creates a binding
or constructive
obligation
on the PCC. The
diocesan parish share expected to be paid over is accounted
for when due. All other expenditure
is generally
recognised
when
it is incurred
and is
accounted for gross.
1.5 Fixed Assets
Consecrated
and benefice property
is not included
in the accounts
in accordance
with s.10(2)(a)and (c) ofthe Charities Act 2011,
Movable church furnishings

on special trust for the PCC and which require a Faculty for disposal are
inalienable
property
and are listed
in the church's
inventory
which can be inspected
at any reasonable
time, For anything
acquired
prior to2000
there is insufficient
cost information
available
and therefore
such assets are not valued
in the financial
staements.
Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity ars capitalised
if they can be used for more ihan ons year and cost at least ft,000.They ars valued at
cost or else, for gifts-in-kind,
at a reasonable
estimate of their open market value on receipt.
Depreciation
is calculated
to writs off the capitalised
cost of fixed assets less their currently
anticipated
residual
fair value over their estimated
useful
lives as follows:
Land
Nil
Buildings
50years
Buildings
(wooden)
8years
Office equipment
4 years
Garden equipment
2 years
1.6 Investments
and short-term
