Notes to the Accounts (Paras 2 to 12 are to be completed by all funds which have a gross income of £100K or over and those funds already registered with the Charity Regulator, all other funds are to complete Paras 6 and 7 and the declarations at Para 12):

1. Principal Accounting Policies

a. Accounting Convention. The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the inclusion of investments at market value and in accordance with applicable accounting standards. In preparing the financial statements the charity follows best practice as set out in the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities’ (SORP) 2005 (http://www.charitycommission.gov.uk/investigations/sorp/sorp05docs.asp)

b. Incoming Resources. Income is recognised in the period in which the charity is entitled to receipt, and the amount can be measured with reasonable certainty. Grants from other agencies including donations and other income from activities are in furtherance of the charity’s objects and are part of the general funds of the charity. A restricted fund is only recognised where this is an agreed and explicit condition of the grant or donor.

c. Intangible Income. Due to the close collaborative relationship and the manner in which the charity’s activities compliment those of the Army, intangible income, reflected in time and use of premises is not quantifiable or measurable and so is not recognised in the accounts.

d. Resources Expended and Basis of Allocation of Costs. Expenditure is included when incurred or exceptionally where a commitment is made which requires an accrual when payment is to be made in the subsequent accounting period. Similarly, where prepayments are made in recognition of commitments falling due in a subsequent accounting period, the appropriate credit is entered in the accounts and reversed the following year. Grants payable are included in the SOFA when approved by the Managing Trustee. Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred. The majority of costs are directly attributable to specific activities. Irrecoverable VAT is charged to the activity for which it was incurred.

e. | Governance Costs. Governance costs are the costs of professional advice, holding trustee meetings or committee meetings associated with decision making, any fee for audit or independent examination and any fee incurred in the preparation, statutory filing, printing or copying of the annual report and accounts.

f. Capitalisation and Depreciation of Tangible Fixed Assets. All assets having a purchase value of more than £500 are capitalised. The cost of tangible fixed assets are written off by equal annual instalments over their expected useful lives using the following methods of depreciation:

Furniture, fixtures and equipment — Straight Line over a period of 2 — 10 years. Motor vehicles - Straight Line over a period of 2 — 10 years.

Assets with a life of more than one year but with a purchase value of below £500 are included within the inventory but the cost is written off in the year it is incurred and is not depreciated over the useful life of the asset. Where the asset is depreciated over a period of more than 10 years, details of the item and period are to be provided following the notes on page 33.

g. Fixed Asset Investments. Fixed asset investments are included at market value at the balance sheet date. Any gain or loss on revaluation is shown in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA).

h. Stocks. Purchased stocks are valued at the lower cost or net realisable value making due allowance for any obsolete or slow-moving items.

i. Funds Accounting. Funds held by the charity are:

(1) General Purpose/Unrestricted /Designated Funds. These are funds that can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Managing Trustee. Designated funds are unrestricted funds which have been allocated/earmarked for a particular purpose by the Managing Trustee and are to be declared in the Managing Trustees comments in accordance with Para 12 to these notes stating what they are intended to be used for and when.

(2) Endowment Funds. Endowment funds are those investments and other gifts accepted by the unit, the capital sum or property being held in perpetuity and the income only being available for charitable use.

(3) Restricted Funds. These are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is to be included in the notes to the accounts.

j- Heritage Assets. In the course of the unit’s history, the charity may have acquired gifts, memorabilia, regalia, silverware, antiques and other historical artefacts in the course of distinguished military service in service of the Crown. The value of these pieces is in large part derived from their close association with Regimental history which precludes the use of conventional valuation techniques being applied. Whilst the objects of the charity do not specifically include preservation and conservation, the pieces represent an essential element of celebrating the unit’s history and foster esprit-de-corps. Consequently the Managing Trustee considers the charity to hold heritage assets both for functional use and as an element of national history on behalf of the nation. Heritage assets acquired prior to 1 Apr 06 are therefore not capitalised on the balance sheet but a description of those assets is disclosed as part of the notes to the accounts. Heritage assets acquired after 1 Apr 06 where the purchase price is known and which exceed £500.00 are included in the balance sheet at acquisition value but are not depreciated.

k. | Other Costs. Other costs are those costs not incurred in the undertaking of charitable activity in furtherance of the objects of the charity, i.e. the provision of facilities, recreational programmes or activities in furtherance of military efficiency. They are also costs incurred in the making of grants and donation, in the costs of generating funds, i.e. the costs incurred in trading or fundraising undertaken by the charity, or in governance costs.

Grants Made. (if total grants are over 5% of the charity’s total expenditure).

The charity made the following grants/donations:

3. Related Party Transactions & Renumeration and Expenses

Whilst the charity has a close working relationship with the Army, there are no transactions with the Army which require disclosure under SORP 2005. The only transactions made by the charity in favour of the unit are wholly attributable to the charitable activities of furthering military efficiency. The Managing Trustee is an officer or equivalent and fulfils the role as trustee in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations. No expenses have been paid to the trustee. In the event that expenses have been paid to the trustee these are disclosed under the Managing Trustee’s comments.

Public Benefit This fund provides public benefit by assisting service personnel to more Statement effectively perform their roles within the Armed Forces of the Crown. It does this by providing and supporting mess facilities and social activities. This assistance enables service personnel to face the challenges and danger associated with military service by developing and maintaining teamwork; skills, fitness; confidence, character, spirit and attitude; and morale*. Asa result, the fund promotes the efficiency of the Armed Forces of the Crown by enhancing the British Army’s capability to undertake the roles demanded of it including the defence of the United Kingdom and its interests.

(I confirm that I have paid due regard to the Charity Commission of England and Wales’s guidance on public benefit when deciding what activities, the charity should undertake.)

Comd/SO2 SPS — Independent Examiner’s Report on the Accounts, and Comments

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

The Charity’s Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

a. Examine the accounts (under section 43(3)(a) of the Act).
b. Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act).
c. State whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent Examiner’s Statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.

Independent Examiner’s Statement

;

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention (other than that disclosed overleaf*):

a. | Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
(1) To keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act:
(2) To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act:

have not been met.

b. To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Delete as applicable.

SO2 SPS – Independent Examiner’s Report on the Accounts, and Comments

Direction 1: Check whether the charity is eligible to have an independent examination. I’ve used the guidance summary at Annex C to Chapter 21 of ACSO 3354 to ensure independent examination by the Comd/SO2 SPS is authorised.
Direction 2: Check for any conflict of interest that prevents the examiner from carrying out their independent examination. I declare that I have not acted as IA or had any other involvement in the day to day running of a service fund (e.g., in a previous assignment) within the last three years.
Direction 3: Record your independent examination. A record of associated documents used for this audit is being stored along with the report and accounts.
Direction 4: Plan your independent examination. As the examiner I obtained the relevant constitution, objectives, organisational structure, the funds managed, its activities and accounting records and systems prior to conducting my examination.

5. Direction 5: Check that accounting records are kept to the to the required standard.

a. As the examiner I satisfied myself that all relevant PAXTON+/AB 397 accounting records and subsidiary books are maintained and up to date, including an examination of transactions carried within the fund during the fund’s last G1 audit.

b. I have checked that the 6-monthly FM/Trustee internal financial controls checklist (British Army) was completed (see Annex B to Chapter 2 of these regulations).

Direction 6: Check that the accounts are consistent with the accounting record. As the IE I examined the final accounts to ascertain if they revealed any unusual items, unexpected fluctuations or inconsistencies.
Direction 7: Check that the Charity is operated in line with the accrual’s basis of accounting. The accounts are prepared on an accrual’s basis, and the relevant checks have been made to confirm that the charity accounting complies with the accrual’s method of accounting. Wherever deviation may exist, guidance was provided to the MT and are recorded within this report.

8. Direction 8. Check the reasonableness of the significant estimates and judgments and accounting policies used in accounting for the types of funds held and in the preparation of the accounts. I have checked:

a. The general accounting policies of the service fund have been agreed with the Charity Commission and are listed in the AF N1514.

b. Any significant income expectations listed in the Managing Trustee’s Financial Reviews in previous accounting periods are noted and their continued receipt considered against future planned expenditure where appropriate.

c. I checked that separate funds of the charity have been correctly accounted for and reported correctly in the accounts.

d. I checked to ensure that no material breach of trust has taken place in the use of charitable funds in the reporting period e.g., use of monies in a restricted fund for a purpose outside of the restriction.

9. Direction 9. The examiner must check whether the trustees have considered the financial circumstances of the charity at the end of the reporting period and, if the accounts are prepared on an accrual’s basis, check whether the trustees have assessed the charity’s position as a going concern when approving the accounts.

a. The IE should consider if the service fund remains viable for future accounting periods.

b. Consider the worth of the service fund over the periods of previous AF N1514s – Consider if the worth of the fund reduced over an extended period.

c. I’ve considered the worth of the service fund over the periods of previous AF N1514s and assessed if the worth of the fund reducing over an extended period.

d. Debtors and Creditors have been examined and guidance provided to FM where necessary.

Direction 10. Check the form and content of the account . I have:

a. The service fund accounts and AF N1514 complies with SORP and the minimum accounting standard required (SOFA, balance Sheet and completed notes to the accounts).

b. Checked for the correct completion of the AF N1514.

11. Direction 11. Direction 11 directs independent examiners to identify items from the analytical review of the accounts that need to be followed up for further explanation or evidence.

a. Any follow up action or request for further explanation can be found at paragraph 13 below.

12. Direction 12: I have compared the trustees’ annual report with the Accounts.

Comments

The IA comments are noted. I have the following comments, some of which requires action: a. No comments.
