## **FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **NOTES** 

- **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 Section 132, using the Receipts and Payments basis available to small charities, and the United Reformed Church guidance. 

- **2 FUND ACCOUNTING** 

The church monies are not held in segregated accounts, but for financial statement up to 2019 the total of each account 

was allocated over the appropriate funds. Interest from deposit accounts was allocated to funds on the basis of the mean of start- and end-year fund values. Increases or decreases in the value of investment accounts were attributed to the funds based on end-year fund values (after interest and fund transfers) From 2020, we have been advised to separate "cash" and "non-cash" investments and show the lattter in the Other Assets section of the R&P Summary. This has required a reallocation of funds. 

We have assumed that the Charitable Donations Fund, the Mission & Music Fund and the Flower Fund are 100% cash and allocated the remaining cash balance across the Future Maintenance Reserve, the Specific Fund and the Benefactor's Funds in proprotation to their size. Interest payments and increases in capital value of cash funds are allocated on the basis of the cash element of the 

respective funds and increases/decreases in the "non-cash" investment values are allocate proportionately to the 

"non-cash" element of the funds. Interest and capital value changes are included in the receipts column (below). 

**Unrestricted Funds** may be used by the church for any of its ordinary purposes. 

**Designated Funds** represent unrestricted funds set aside by the church for specific designated purposes; they can be transferred back into general funds at the church's decision. 

## **Future Maintenance Reserve Fund** 

These funds are set aside in an attempt to spread over a number of years the cost of major maintenance work to the Church, Manse and Bungalow, the amount and timing of which cannot be accurately determined. Allocated interest from deposit accounts is credited net of a 60% Ministry & Mission levy (URC Synod methodology), The levy is credited to unrestricted funds and used to part-fund our Ministry & Mission payment. From 2008 the fund has also been used to balance receipts and payments connected with the Running and Maintenance of the church. 

## **Specific Fund** 

These funds are derived primarily from legacies and ministerial fees. They are intended to be used to promote the Mission and Worship activities of the church as directed by Church Meeting. Allocated interest from deposit accounts is credited net of a 60% Ministry & Mission levy (URC Synod 

methodology). The levy is credited to unrestricted funds and used to part-fund our Ministry & Mission payment. From 2008 the fund has also been used to balance receipts and payments connected with the Mission & Worship activities of the church. 

## **Nursery Reserve Fund** 

From 2014 we have included 'headline' figures for our Nursery School, which for reasons of operational sensitivity are reported in detail separately. The Nursery Reserve Fund is used primarily to cover cash flow imbalances arising during the operating year and projected liabilities in event of the dissolution of the Nursery. A portion of the Nursery operating surplus has been transferred to the Future Maintenance Reserve Fund to cover agreed running & maintenance costs.

## **FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020** 

## **NOTES** 

**Restricted Funds** represent income which may be expended only on those restricted objects provided in the terms of a trust or bequest, or donations or grants received or invited for a specific purpose.  These funds can only be spent on the specific purpose for which they were given.  Any balance remaining unspent must be carried forward as a balance on that fund for future expenditure on that specific purpose, or returned; it cannot be absorbed into general funds. 

## **Benefactors fund** 

These funds have been derived from donations which are to be applied for items not connected with the upkeep of the fabric.  They are kept separately and can be directed according to the decision of the Church Meeting. In 2020 a payment was made to our retiring Toddlers Manager, Margaret Steff 

## **Annual Running & Maintenance Fund** 

Since 1.1.2007 some church members and church organisations have requested that a proportion of their giving is 

directed into a restricted fund for the purpose of maintaining the church premises. This income is generally used in the year it arises. 

## **Charitable Donations Fund** 

This fund holds temporary balances of restricted short term funds, pending completion of donations by the church . 

## **Flower Fund** 

Gift Aid recovered on indirect donations made for church flowers and restricted donations made to the Church for flowers is credited to this fund. The funds are to be used solely for purchase of church flowers, directly or via the church flower arrangers group. 

## **Music & Mission Fund** 

These funds derive from donations by church members and third parties at concerts & recitals in the church. They are used to fund the costs of musical events  - primarily in the running year -  but any surplus is held in the fund for future years.
