|ncoming Resources||
|---|---|
|Recognition of|These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:|
|incoming resources|1. The JC becomes legally entitled to the benefit of use of the resources;|
||2. and inflow of economic benefit is probable;|
||3. the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.|
|Fundraising costs|Funds raised from events and trading activities (e.g. a fete, a garden party or|
||sale of books and magazines) are reported gross in the SOFA - i.e. before the|
||deduction of any costs from the gross proceeds.|
|Grants and|Grants and donations are included in the SOFA when any preconditions|
|donations|preventing their use by the JC have been met. For collections and planned|
||giving this is when the funds are received.|
|Gift Aid Tax claims|Gift Aid and other tax claims are included in the SOFA at the same time as the|
|etc. on cash|cash donations to which they relate.|
|donations||
|Gifts in kind|Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their fair value at the|
||time of gift, if feasible, or else at the amount actually realised from their|
||disposal.|
||Gifts in kind for sale to fund the JC are included in the accounts at their|
||estimated fair value at the date of gift, if feasible, or else recognised when sold|
||by the charity.|
||Gifts in kind for the JC's own use are included in the SOFA as incoming|
||resources at their fair value when receivable, and expensed as and when|
||consumed in use. Gifts of fixed assets, if material, are included in the balance|
||sheet at their fair value and expensed over the asset's useful economic life..|
|Donated services|These are included in income (and at the same time in resources expended) at|
|and facilities|the estimated fair value to the JC of the service or facility received.|
|Volunteer help|The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is|
||described in the Trustees' Annual Report.|
|Rental income|Rental income from the letting of the church is recognised when the rental is|
||due.|
|Investment income|This is included in the accounts when receivable.|
|Investment gains|This includes any gain or loss on the sale of investments and any gain or loss|
|and losses|resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.|






## 

|Liability recognition|Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation|
|---|---|
||and settlement is probably and quantifiable.|
|Governance costs|Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the|
||costs of trustee meetings and costs of any legal advice to trustees on|
||governance or constitutional matters.|
|Grants payable|These are recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made|
|without|externally and there are no preconditions still to be met for entitlement to the|
|performance|grant that remain within the control of the JC.|
|conditions||
|Support costs (if|Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost|
|allocated across|categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources.|
|more than one||
|heading)||
|Assets||
|Tangible fixed assets|These are not capitalised and depreciated in the accounts but written off|
|for use by charity|completely in the year of acquisition. While the assets may have an ongoing|
||value to the JC they are likely to have little realisable or economic value to the|
||JC in future periods. This policy has been adopted to better reflect the actual|
||usage of funds each year and the amount of liquid funds available to the PCC at|
||the end of each accounting period.|
|Investments|Investments quoted on a recognised stock exchange or whose value derives|
||from them are valued at market value at the year end. Other investment assets|
||are included in the accounts at the trustees' best estimate of market value.|
|Trading stocks|These are valued at the lower of cost (or gift value) or year end fair value.|
|Short-term deposits|Include cash held on deposit either with CCLA Church of England Funds or at|
||the bank.|
|Funds||
|Unrestricted funds|These represent the remaining income funds of the JC that are available for|
||spending on the general purposes of the JC, including amounts designated by|
||the JC for fixed assets for its own use or for spending on a future project and|
||that are therefore not included in its 'free reserves' as detailed below.|
|Designated funds|These are unrestricted funds that have been 'set aside', by the JC, for specific|
||purposes, but which may be 'un-designated' by a subsequent decision of the JC.|
|Restricted funds|These are income funds that must be spent on restricted purposes and details|
||of the funds held and restrictions provided are shown in the notes to the|
||accounts.|
|Endowment funds|These are restricted funds that must be retained as trust capital either|
||permanently or subject to a discretionary power to spend capital as income,|
||and where the use of any income or other benefit derived from the capital may|
||be restricted or unrestricted. Full details of all their restrictions are shown in|
||the notes to the accounts.|



## 

|ther||
|---|---|
|Reserves|The JC has adopted a reserves policy to maintain a minimum balance of free|
||reserves equating to three months of expenditure.|
|VAT|The JC is not registered for VAT.|
