CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

Background

Churchill College received its Royal Charter in 1960 and is a national and Commonwealth memorial to Sir Winston Churchill. The College is an autonomous, self-governing body of scholars and is one of the thirty one Colleges within the University of Cambridge. Under the College Statutes, “the students of the College shall comprise Undergraduate and Advanced Students, of whom approximately one-third shall be Advanced Students”. The Statutes also state that approximately 70% of all Undergraduates should be studying subjects in the fields of science or technology. These two statutes are fundamental to the distinct, unique nature of the College. This diversity is integral to the College’s mission of reaching out to the wider world in academia, education, technology, business, the arts and politics. Churchill continues to be distinguished by its high numbers of students from “widening participation” or international backgrounds, and of older students with families as well as its relaxed, informal and friendly atmosphere.

The College is a registered Charity and its registered charity number is 1137476.

Aims and Objectives of the College

The charitable objectives of the College are:

Public Benefit

The College provides, in conjunction with the University of Cambridge, an education for some 900 undergraduate and graduate students which is recognised internationally as being of the highest standard. This education develops students academically and advances their leadership qualities and interpersonal skills, and so prepares them to play full and effective roles in society. In particular, the College provides:

In addition, through the Møller Institute, the College provides courses to develop management knowledge and skills and leadership training for the private, public and professional service sectors from around the world.

The College advances research through:

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

The College also extends the use of its facilities to the local community and community organisations and participates generously in hosting programmes to bring talented young people from poorer backgrounds to Cambridge.

Funding

The College has several sources of income including fees, catering and accommodation income from students, donations, investment income and income from conference activities. As the College’s income from students is not sufficient to fund the educational costs of the College, the College is reliant on its conference business as well as donations to meet its regular financial needs. The College has issued bonds totalling £24m which are due for repayment between 2043 and 2057.

Widening Participation

Churchill College aims to receive applications from the best Undergraduate students, irrespective of the background they come from. The Schools Liaison team works closely with schools and colleges to reach out to such applicants and ensure they get the best possible information about what Churchill College can offer and the admissions process.

Churchill’s schools and colleges liaison work is particularly concentrated in South Wales, Surrey, Sussex, and the London boroughs of Croydon, Merton, and Sutton, which are the UK areas for which Churchill College has outreach responsibility under the provision of Cambridge's Area Links Scheme.

Achievements and Performance

The results for the academic year 2023/24 were finalised on time this year – in July. Churchill students have continued to perform strongly academically.

The College again attracted high numbers of undergraduate applications, with its recruitment efforts focussed on the maintained sector. The number of offers to state education students continued to remain high and increased slightly compared with last year, though the level of acceptances was slightly lower:

2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018

Archives Centre

The Centre celebrated its 50[th] anniversary during the year, with an open day for all members of the College community, an online exhibition project with Anglia Ruskin University students, and a major social media campaign. The 20[th] Roskill Lecture was given by Harriet Harman KC.

56 new accessions included recordings of the Groundbreakers project and the personal papers of female parliamentarians Kay Andrews, Harriet Harman, Patricia Hewitt and Margaret Hodge. Papers from Peter Higgs (Nobel Laureate in Physics), Valentine Lawford and his partner Horst P Horst (diplomat and fashion photographer, respectively), Warren Fisher (Head of the Home Civil Service) and Lord Haworth of Fisherfield (Labour party official and Life Peer) were also received. Collections processed during the year include Davidson Nicol’s and Fenner Brockway, the “Member for Africa”.

The Centre hosted a further two researchers from the University of Fort Hare in South Africa, as well as hosting four Archives By-Fellows. 427 researchers registered with the Centre and 9,171 files were issued in the reading rooms. Over 90,000 images were captured and supplied for researchers. The newly launched Archives Search online catalogue registered 20,107 new users. Fuller details are available in the Archives Centre’s own annual report.

Work has begun, with a feasibility study carried out by Architype, to consider alternative expansion provisions to underpin the future growth of the Archives Centre.

Scope of the Financial Statements

In addition to the educational activities of the College, the consolidated accounts include the commercial activity of the College and, through its subsidiaries, the Møller Institute Ltd and Churchill Conferences Ltd. The surpluses from these operations are donated to the College under a Deed of Covenant and appear as donations in the College’s income and expenditure statement. The figures below refer to the College rather than the consolidated accounts.

Financial Review

a) Surplus for the Year

The College Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure (SOCIE) shows a surplus of £14.3m for the year, compared with a surplus of £10.8m in 2022/23. The SOCIE shows all movements in net assets from one year to the next and therefore includes donation income which has been received for the long-term benefit of the College, losses and gains on investments as well as other adjustments.

The College’s management accounts show a surplus of £2.0m for 2023/24 compared with a surplus of £0.9m in 2022/23. The following table shows how the management accounts reconcile to the SOCIE:

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

__________________

The College’s results for the year showed a significant increase in the management account surplus – which shows the College’s regular income and expenditure but ignores income received for the long term. The increase was mainly attributable to improved returns from the Moller Institute from £1m in 2022/23 to £1.8m in 2023/24. This was partly due to payment of rent for the full year and partly due to increased turnover and profitability. The College’s own commercial activities were also very successful in 2023/24 and expenditure, particularly on food costs, was well managed during a period of relatively high inflation and increasing staff costs.

The College’s investments continued to perform well, with a valuation surplus of over £9m both this year and last year.

A significant change concerns the provision required in respect of the USS deficit recovery plan. This was a “refund” of £2m in 2023/24 compared with £0.3m in 2022/23. The actuarial valuation carried out in 2023 showed the USS fund is no longer in deficit. The £2m set aside as at 30 June 2023 in respect of the deficit recovery plan was therefore released during 2023/24. There was also an improvement in the CCFPS pension provision, with an actuarial gain in 2023/24 compared with a loss in 2022/23.

Although recruitment and retention of staff continued to be challenging in 2023/24, the College was able to fill vacancies and meet the staffing needs of its activities.

b) Academic Fees and Charges

These are primarily the tuition fees paid by or on behalf of students and they increased in total by 4.4% compared with 2022/23. There was a small reduction in fee-paying student numbers compared with last year, particularly undergraduate students. Other academic income includes income to support the Cambridge Bursary Scheme and the Winston Churchill Studentships.

c) Donations, New Endowments and Capital Grants

The total income received from donations was £6.5m compared with £4.7m in 2022/23. The College will receive gift aid payments, under Deeds of Covenant, from the Møller Institute of £1,200k and £157k from Churchill Conferences Ltd compared with £714k and £143k respectively in 2022/23.

Rent and service charges received from the Møller Institute of £558k are included in the figures for income from accommodation, catering and conferences compared with £275k for 2022/23.

The total contribution to College from the Møller Institute is this expected to be £1,758k compared with £993k for 2022/23.

d) Endowment and Investment Performance

The College’s Amalgamated Investment Fund (AIF), which makes up c95% of the College’s investments, delivered a return of 9.59% compared with a total return of 9.24% the previous year. The return is significantly below the College’s benchmark return for the year of 15.39%. New funds of £10.5m were invested in the Amalgamated Investment Fund during the year, and £0.4m was withdrawn.

The College drew down a total of £5.7m in accordance with the agreed formula for smoothing total return from year to year compared with the drawdown of £5.0m the previous year. The drawdown per unit was 4.4% of the value at 30 June 2024 compared with 4.3% per unit as at 30 June 2023. The value of a unit in the AIF increased from £19.79 at 30 June 2023 to £20.73 at 30 June 2024.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

e) Conferences and Catering income

The use of the facilities and amenities of the College is maximised, particularly out of term time, by extending them to commercial clients, including learned societies, other academic institutions and community education, to provide revenue to cover the fixed costs of the College and to support academic endeavours.

f) Maintenance of Buildings

The College spent more than £2.7 million on capital projects during the year.

Major projects undertaken in 2023/24 included:

g) Staff Costs and Pensions

Personnel costs as a whole (including related costs such as training, health and safety management, meals, recruitment) increased by 20.8%. This reflected the filling of vacancies and increased staffing to support the commercial activities of the College. Non-academic staff received cost of living increases of 3% in July 2023 and October 2023. This was in response to the high rate of inflation and cost of living pressures which were present during the year. Increments of circa 3% were also awarded to those who were eligible. In addition, the scheme which allows the awarding of discretionary increments to reflect excellent performance, was reinstated during the year.

The College continues to pay into the Combined Colleges Federated Pension Scheme which is now closed to Churchill staff for future service and to new members. The College operates an auto-enrolment pension scheme with NOW Pensions. Non-academic staff appointed since 2007 have been offered a defined contribution pension, with generous contributions from the College. It retains an independent consultant to advise staff on their options. The College also offers pre-retirement courses and spent £47k on staff training during the year, including access to a wide range of online training available for all staff to use.

Employer’s contributions to the USS pension reduced from 21.6% to 14.5% on 1 January 2024. This reflects the improved actuarial valuation which shows the fund is no longer in deficit. The College’s estimated share of the pension fund deficit recovery was £2.0m at 30 June 2023 and this was reduced to £Nil as at 30 June 2024.

Reserves Policy

The College intends to continue to pursue its objectives in perpetuity and has set a reserves policy which requires reserves to be maintained at a level which ensures that the core activity could be continued during a period of extreme financial difficulty.

The College’s reserve policy is based on a risk identification approach. This requires an understanding of the income streams and their risk profile, the degree of commitment to expenditure and the overall risk environment in which the College operates.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

__________________

The Colleges reserves are made up of restricted funds, unrestricted funds and those unrestricted funds which the College has designated for a particular purpose. Some of the restricted reserves are permanent i.e. they cannot be spent. The College’s reserves are primarily held in the form of operational assets and investments. The value of the College’s unrestricted reserves is in excess of £142m though about £89m of this is in the form of operational assets (£96m for the group).

The College does not need to increase its unrestricted reserves or set a particular target of unrestricted funds to ensure that it can continue to operate through a particularly difficult financial period. However, the College does need to ensure that sufficient reserves can be converted to cash to finance its way through a period of extreme financial adversity and should identify the level of cash that could be required.

In order to identify an appropriate level of reserves, a risk based review of all income streams and areas of expenditure was carried out in 2018/19. This suggests that a reserve of between £5m and £7m is required to enable the College to continue with its core functions for at least 12 months during a period of particularly adverse financial circumstances.

The College is confident that it could achieve cash sums of between £5m and £7m, if required, through the sale of investment assets or residential properties.

The above policy takes into account the requirement to pay interest on the bonds issued by the College but not the capital repayments as these are not due for repayment until 2043 at the earliest. The reserve policy will be revised in 2028 to include the bond repayments i.e. 15 years prior to the date the first repayment is due.

The Archives Centre has limited reserves but is largely supported by a number of grant-making trusts, most established for that purpose.

Equal Opportunities

The College is committed to the principle and practice of equal opportunities and aims to be an equal opportunities employer. The College’s employment policy seeks to ensure that no job applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of sex, marital status, ethnic origin, disability, age, class, colour, HIV/AIDS status, personal circumstances, sexual orientation or any other grounds that are unjustified in terms of equality of opportunities for all.

Employee Relations

The College consults regularly with its non-academic employees through various methods, both formally through the forum of its Staff Consultative Group and informally. Those holding academic positions are regularly consulted through Governing Body, a variety of College committees and, in particular, through membership of the College Council which meets regularly during term.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The College has a system in place to identify new risks regularly and to review and update the risk register. This will ensure that action can be taken to minimise the effects of those risks and uncertainties on the College. The risk register separately identifies strategic risks and operational risks, with clear identification of the responsible officer for each of the risks.

The risk register is reviewed and revised regularly. Great care has been taken to provide a safe environment for students, fellows and staff who live and work in College. The College’s commercial activities have returned to their pre-pandemic levels and hence a very important income stream has been reinstated. The College continues to offer hybrid events and bookings, using the equipment and expertise acquired during the pandemic. The pipeline for events in 2024/25 is very positive.

Other risks and uncertainties that are currently being experienced include disruption and shortages of supplies of certain foods and fuel and to staffing pressures, particularly in hospitality. The College has seen a peak of higher gas prices, having had relatively low exposure to this last year as the majority of its supply was on a fixed price basis.

Plans for the Future

The College’s primary objective is to continue to offer excellent teaching and research opportunities whilst maintaining the wellbeing of students, Fellows and staff.

The College continues to improve and maintain its buildings. Major projects planned for 2024/25 include:

The College said farewell to Prof Dame Athene Donald during Easter Term 2024, following the completion of 10 years as Master of the College. Prof Sharon Peacock was appointed as the 8[th] Master of Churchill College on 1 October 2024.

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE COLLEGE COUNCIL OF CHURCHILL COLLEGE

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Churchill College (the ‘College’) and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 30 June 2024 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Reserves, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and College in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group’s or College’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the report of the College Council, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE COLLEGE COUNCIL OF CHURCHILL COLLEGE

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

__________________

rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of the College Council

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 11, the trustees (College Council) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group's and College’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the College or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the College and how it operates and considered the risk of the College not complying with the applicable laws and regulations including fraud in particular those that could have a material impact on the financial statements. This included those regulations directly related to the financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE COLLEGE COUNCIL OF CHURCHILL COLLEGE

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

The risks were discussed with the audit team and we remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. We carried out specific procedures to address the risks identified. These included the following:

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/Our-Work/Audit/Audit-and-assurance/Standards-and-guidance/Standards-and-guidance-forauditors/Auditors-responsibilities-for-audit/Description-of-auditors-responsibilities-for-audit.aspx.

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

Basis of Preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Statutes of the College and of the University of Cambridge, using the Recommended Cambridge College Accounts (RCCA) format; and applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS 102) and the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP): Accounting for Further and Higher Education issued in 2019.

The Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure includes activity analysis in order to demonstrate that all fee income is spent for educational purposes. The analysis required by the SORP is set out in note 7.

The College is a public benefit entity and therefore has applied the relevant public benefit requirement of the applicable UK laws and accounting standards.

The functional and presentational currency of the College is GBP. The level of rounding applied is to the nearest £000. .

Going concern

The College therefore expects to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. There are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the College’s ability to continue as a going concern and accordingly the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified in respect of the treatment of investments which is included at valuation.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the College and its wholly owned subsidiary undertakings:

Details of the subsidiary undertakings are set out in note 30.

Intra-group balances are eliminated on consolidation. The consolidated financial statements do not include the activities of student societies (as these are separate bodies in which the College has no financial interest and over whose policy decisions it has no control).

Recognition of income

a. Academic Fees

Academic fees are recognised in the period to which they relate and include all fees chargeable to students or their sponsors. The costs of any fees waived or written off by the College are included as expenditure.

15

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

b. Grant Income

Grants received from non-government sources (including research grants from non-government sources) are recognised within the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure when the College is entitled to the income and performance related conditions have been met.

Income received in advance of performance related conditions is deferred on the balance sheet and released to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure in line with such conditions being met.

c. Donations and Endowments

Non exchange transactions without performance related conditions are donations and endowments. Donations and endowments with donor imposed restrictions are recognised within the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure when the College is entitled to the income. Income is retained within restricted reserves until such time that it is utilised in line with such restrictions at which point the income is released to general reserves through a reserve transfer. Donations and endowments with restrictions are classified as restricted reserves with additional disclosure provided within the notes to the accounts.

There are four main types of donations and endowments with restrictions:

  1. Restricted donations – the donor has specified that the donation must be used for a particular objective;

  2. Unrestricted permanent endowments – the donor has specified that the fund is to be permanently invested to generate an income stream for the general benefit of the College;

  3. Restricted expendable endowments – the donor has specified a particular objective and the College can convert the donated sum into income; and

  4. Restricted permanent endowments – the donor has specified that the fund is to be permanently invested to generate an income stream to be applied to a particular objective.

Donations with no restrictions are recorded within the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure when the College is entitled to the income.

d. Legacy Accounting

For legacies, entitlement is taken on a case by case basis as the earlier of the date on which the College is aware that probate has been granted and either: the estate has been finalised, final estate accounts have been received and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the College that a distribution will be made, or when a notification has been made by the executors(s) to the College of an intention to make a distribution prior to the end of the financial year and subsequently that distribution is received from the estate after the year end. Where legacies have been notified to the College, or the College is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

e. Investment Income and Change in Value of Investment Assets

Investment income and change in value of investment assets is recorded in income in the year in which it arises and as either restricted or unrestricted income according to the terms or other restrictions applied to the individual endowment fund.

f. Total Return

The Endowment is invested on a Total Return basis. The total actual income and gains/losses in the year are taken to a reserve, from which the planned Endowment drawdown is released to the Income and Expenditure account. The remaining balance of the Total Return, after deducting the drawdown, is accumulated within reserves as set out in Note 19.

g. Other Income

Income is received from a range of activities including accommodation, catering conferences and other services rendered. Income is recognised in the period in which the related goods or services are delivered.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

h. Cambridge Bursary Scheme

In 2023/24, payment of the Cambridge Bursaries to eligible students was made directly by the Student Loans Company (SLC). As a consequence, the College reimbursed the SLC for the full amount paid to their eligible students and the College subsequently received a contribution from the University of Cambridge towards this payment.

The net payment of £195k is shown within the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Expenditure as follows:

Income £152k Expenditure £347k

Foreign Currency Translation

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at year end rates or, where there are forward foreign exchange contracts, at contract rates. The resulting exchange differences are dealt with in the determination of the comprehensive income and expenditure for the financial year.

Tangible fixed assets

a. Land and buildings

Fixed assets are stated at deemed cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Where parts of a fixed asset have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of fixed assets.

Costs incurred in relation to land and buildings after initial purchase or construction, and prior to valuation, are capitalised to the extent that they increase the expected future benefits to the College.

Freehold buildings are depreciated on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic life of 60 years. Freehold land is not depreciated as it is considered to have an indefinite useful life.

Buildings under construction are valued at cost, based on the value of architects’ certificates and other direct costs incurred. They are not depreciated until they are brought into use.

b. Furniture, fittings and equipment

Furniture, fittings and equipment costing less than £20,000 per individual item or group of related items is written off in the year of acquisition. All other assets are capitalised and depreciated over their expected useful life as follows:

Furniture and fittings 10% - 20% per annum Motor vehicles and general equipment 10% - 20% per annum Computer equipment 10% - 33% per annum

c. Leased assets

Leases in which the College assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased asset are classified as finance leases. Leased assets acquired by way of finance leases are stated at an amount equal to the lower of their fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease, less accumulated depreciation and less accumulated impairment losses. Lease payments are accounted for as described below.

Minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

17

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

__________________

Costs in respect of operating leases are charged on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any lease premiums or incentives are spread over the minimum lease term.

d. Heritage Assets

The College holds and conserves a number of collections, exhibits, artefacts and other assets of historical, artistic or scientific importance. Heritage assets acquired before 1 August 2014 have not been capitalised since reliable estimates of cost or value are not available on a cost benefit basis, and also the volume of items and valuation issues mean that it is neither practical nor beneficial to identify and value them. Acquisitions since 1 August 2014 and valued at over £500k are capitalised and recognised in the Balance Sheet at the cost or, where the assets are donated, at valuation on receipt of these assets where such a cost or valuation is reasonably obtainable.

Heritage assets are not depreciated since their long economic life and high residual value mean that any depreciation would not be material. Expenditure which is required to preserve or prevent further deterioration of individual items within the heritage assets is recognised in the Income and Expenditure Account when it is incurred. Operational assets are those that the College uses in the course of meeting its charitable purposes of education, religion, learning, and research. Once an asset has been classified as an operational asset it is not reclassified as a heritage asset.

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less impairment.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

Creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price.

Financial Instruments

The College has elected to adopt Sections 11 and 12 of FRS 102 in respect of the recognition, measurement and disclosure of financial instruments. Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the College becomes party to the contractual provision of the instrument and they are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into.

A financial asset and a financial liability are offset only when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and an intention either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Financial assets

Basic financial assets include trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and investments in commercial paper (i.e. deposits and bonds). These assets are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Such assets are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

18

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

For financial assets carried at amortised cost the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Other financial assets, including investments in equity instruments, which are not subsidiaries or joint ventures, are initially measured at fair value which is typically the transaction price. These assets are subsequently carried at fair value and changes in fair value at the reporting date are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Where the investment in equity instruments is not publicly traded and where the fair value cannot be reliably measured, the assets are measured at cost less impairment. Investments in property or other physical assets do not constitute a financial instrument and are not included.

Financial assets are de-recognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled or substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to another party.

Financial Liabilities

Basic financial liabilities include trade and other payables, bank loans and intergroup loans. These liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down.

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Derivatives, including forward foreign exchange contracts, are not basic financial instruments. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at their fair value at the reporting date. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income in finance costs or finance income as appropriate, unless they are included in a hedging arrangement.

To the extent that the College enters into forward foreign exchange contracts which remain unsettled at the reporting date the fair value of the contracts is reviewed at that date. The initial fair value is measured as the transaction price on the date of inception of the contracts. Subsequent valuations are considered on the basis of the forward rates for those unsettled contracts at the reporting date. The College does not apply any hedge accounting in respect of forward foreign exchange contracts held to manage cash flow exposures of forecast transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

Financial liabilities are de-recognised when the liability is discharged, cancelled, or expires.

Investments

Fixed asset investments are included in the balance sheet at fair value, except for investments in subsidiary undertakings which are stated in the College’s balance sheet at cost and eliminated on consolidation. Investments that are not listed on a recognised stock exchange are carried at historical cost less any provision for impairment in their value/market value.

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making provision for slow moving and obsolete items.

19

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the College has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

Taxation

The College is a registered charity (number 1137476) and also a charity within the meaning of Section 467 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010. Accordingly, the College is exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within the categories covered by Sections 478 to 488 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that such income or gains are applied to exclusively charitable purposes.

The College receives no similar exemption in respect of Value Added Tax.

Contribution under Statute G,II

The College is liable to be assessed for Contribution under the provisions of Statute G,II of the University of Cambridge. Contribution is used to fund grants to colleges from the Colleges Fund. The College may from time to time be eligible for such grants. The liability for the year is as advised to the College by the University based on an assessable amount derived from the value of the College’s assets as at the end of the previous financial year.

Pension schemes

a) Universities Superannuation Scheme

The College participates in Universities Superannuation Scheme. The scheme is a hybrid pension scheme, providing defined benefits (for all members), as well as defined contribution benefits. The assets of the scheme are held in a separate trustee-administered fund. Because of the mutual nature of the scheme, the assets are not attributed to individual institutions and a scheme-wide contribution rate is set. The College is therefore exposed to actuarial risks associated with other Colleges’ employees and is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis. As required by Section 28 of FRS 102 “Employee benefits”, the College therefore accounts for the scheme as if it were a wholly defined contribution scheme. As a result, the amount charged to the profit and loss account represents the contributions payable to the scheme. Since the College has entered into an agreement (the Recovery Plan) that determines how each employer within the scheme will fund the overall deficit, the College recognises a liability for the contributions payable that arise from the agreement (to the extent that they relate to the deficit) and therefore an expense is recognised.

b) CCFPS

The College is also a member of the multi-employer defined benefits scheme, the Cambridge Colleges’ Federated Pension scheme. The Churchill College section closed for accrual on 31 March 2007 when all active members were made deferred. The fund is valued every three years by a professionally qualified independent actuary. In the intervening years, the actuary reviews the progress of the scheme.

Reserves

Reserves are allocated between restricted and unrestricted reserves. Endowment reserves include balances which, in respect of endowment to the College, are held as permanent funds, which the College must hold in perpetuity.

Restricted reserves include balances in respect of which the donor has designated a specific purpose and therefore the College is restricted in the use of these funds.

20

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements

The preparation of the College’s accounts requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. These judgements, estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.

Management consider the areas set out below to be those where critical accounting judgements have been applied and the resulting estimates and assumptions may lead to adjustments to the future carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

Income recognition – Judgement is applied in determining the value and timing of certain income items to be recognised in the accounts. This includes determining when performance related conditions have been met and determining the appropriate recognition timing for donations, bequests and legacies. In general, the later are recognised when at the probate stage.

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment – Property, plant and equipment represent a significant proportion of the College’s total assets. Therefore, the estimated useful lives can have a significant impact on the depreciation charged and the College’s reported performance. Useful lives are determined at the time the asset is acquired and reviewed regularly for appropriateness. The lives are based on historical experiences with similar assets, professional advice and anticipation of future events. Details of the carrying values of property, plant and equipment are shown in note 9.

Recoverability of debtors – The provision for doubtful debts is based on the College’s estimate of the expected recoverability of those debts. Assumptions are made based on the level of debtors which have defaulted historically, coupled with current economic knowledge. The provision is based on the current situation of the customer, the age profile of the debt and the nature of the amount due.

Management are satisfied that Universities Superannuation Scheme meets the definition of a multi-employer scheme and has therefore recognised the discounted fair value of the contractual contributions under the funding plan in existence at the date of approving the accounts.

A deficit recovery plan was put in place as part of the 2020 valuation, which required payment of 6.2% of salaries over the period 1 April 2022 until 31 March 2024, at which point the rate would increase to 6.3%. As set out in note 16, no deficit recovery plan was required under the 2023 valuation because the scheme was in surplus on a technical provisions basis. The institution was no longer required to make deficit recovery contributions from 1 January 2024 and accordingly released the outstanding provision to the profit and loss account. Further details are set out in note 28.

All other accounting judgements and estimates are detailed under the appropriate accounting policy.

28 PENSION SCHEMES

The College's employees belong to two principal pension schemes, the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) and the Cambridge Colleges Federated Pension Scheme (CCFPS).

Universities Superannuation Scheme

The College participates in Universities Superannuation Scheme. The assets of the scheme are held in a separate trustee-administered fund. Because of the mutual nature of the scheme, the assets are not attributed to individual Colleges and a scheme-wide contribution rate is set. The College is therefore exposed to actuarial risks associated with other Colleges’ employees and is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis. As required by Section 28 of FRS 102 “Employee benefits”, the College therefore accounts for the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. As a result, the amount charged to the profit and loss account represents the contributions payable to the scheme and the deficit recovery contributions payable under the scheme’s Recovery Plan.

FRS 102 makes the distinction between a group plan and a multi-employer scheme. A group plan consists of a collection of entities under common control typically with a sponsoring employer. A multi-employer scheme is a scheme for entities not under common control and represents (typically) an industry-wide scheme such as Universities Superannuation Scheme. The accounting for a multi-employer scheme where the employer has entered into an agreement with the scheme that determines how the employer will fund a deficit, results in the recognition of a liability for the contributions payable that arise from the agreement (to the extent that they relate to the deficit) with the resulting expense charged through the profit or loss account in accordance with section 28 of FRS 102.

The total cost charged to the profit and loss account is £348k (2023: £410k).

A deficit recovery plan was put in place as part of the 2020 valuation, which required payment of 6.2% of salaries over the period 1 April 2022 until 31 March 2024, at which point the rate would increase to 6.3%. As set out in note 16, no deficit recovery plan was required under the 2023 valuation because the scheme was in surplus on a technical provisions basis. The institution was no longer required to make deficit recovery contributions from 1 January 2024 and accordingly released the outstanding provision to the profit and loss account.

The latest available complete actuarial valuation of the Retirement Income Builder is as at 31 March 2023 (the valuation date), which was carried out using the projected unit method. Since the institution cannot identify its share of USS Retirement Income Builder (defined benefit) assets and liabilities, the following disclosures reflect those relevant for those assets and liabilities as a whole.

CHURCHILL COLLEGE IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

28 PENSION SCHEMES (CONT)

The 2023 valuation was the seventh valuation for the scheme under the scheme-specific funding regime introduced by the Pensions Act 2004, which requires schemes to have sufficient and appropriate assets to cover their technical provisions (the statutory funding objective). At the valuation date, the value of the assets of the scheme was £73.1 billion and the value of the scheme’s technical provisions was £65.7 billion indicating a surplus of £7.4 billion and a funding ratio of 111%.

The key financial assumptions used in the 2023 valuation are described below. More detail is set out in the Statement of Funding Principles (uss.co.uk/about-us/valuation-and-funding/statement-of-funding principles).

CPI assumption Term dependent rates in line with the difference between the Fixed Interest and Index Linked yield curves less: 1.1%pa to 2030, reducing linearly by 0.1%pa from 2030 Pension increases (subject to a Benefits with no cap: floor of 0%) CPI assumption plus 3bps

Benefits subject to a “soft cap” of 5% (providing inflationary increases up to 5%, and half of any excess inflation over 5% up to a maximum of 10%): CPI assumption minus 3bps Discount rate (forward rates) Fixed interest gilt yield curve plus: Pre-retirement: 2.5%pa Post-retirement: 0.9%pa

The main demographic assumptions used relate to the mortality assumptions. These assumptions are based on analysis of the scheme’s experience carried out as part of the 2023 actuarial valuation. The mortality assumptions used in these figures are as follows:

2023 Valuation Mortality base table 101% of S2PMA "light" for males and 95% of S3PFA for females Future improvements to mortality CMI 2021 with a smoothing parameter of 7.5, an initial addition of 0.4% p.a., 10% w2020 and w2021 parameters, and a long-term improvement rate of 1.8% pa for males and 1.6% pa for females

The current life expectancies on retirement at age 65 are:

The current life expectancies on retirement at age 65 are:
2024 2023
Males currently aged 65 years 23.7 24.0
Females currently aged 65 years 25.6 25.6
Males currently aged 45 years 25.4 26.0
Females currently aged 45 years 27.2 27.4

At 30 June 2023, the College’s balance sheet included a liability of £1,993k for future contributions payable under the deficit recovery agreement which was concluded on 30 September 2021, following the 2020 valuation when the scheme was in deficit. No deficit recovery plan was required from the 2023 valuation, because the scheme was in surplus. Changes to contribution rates were implemented from 1 January 2024 and from that date the College was no longer required to make deficit recovery contributions. The remaining liability was released to the profit and loss account. Further disclosures relating to the deficit recovery liability can be found in note 16.

Cambridge Colleges Federated Pension Scheme

The College also operates a defined benefit pension plan for the College's employees of the Cambridge Colleges' Federated Pension Scheme. This College section closed for all accrual on 31 March 2007 when all active members were made deferred.

The liabilities of the plan have been calculated, at 30 June 2024, for the purposes of FRS102 using a valuation system designed for the Management Committee, acting as Trustee of the Cambridge Federated Pension Scheme, but allowing for the different assumptions required under FRS102 and taking fully into consideration changes in the plan benefit structure and membership since that date.

The principal actuarial assumptions at the balance sheet date were as follows:

----- Start of picture text -----
||||| |---|---|---|---| |30/06/24|30/06/23| |% pa|% pa| |Discount rate|5.10%|5.20%| |Retail Price Index (RPI) assumption|3.35%|3.4%| |Consumer Price Index (CPI):|To 2030|2.35%|2.8%| |From 2031|3.35%|2.80%| |Pension Increases (RPI max 5% pa)|3.15%|3.3%*|

----- End of picture text -----

*For 1 years only, it is assumed the RPI will be 9% and CPI will be 7%. The caps under the rules are applied to assumed pension increased.

The underlying mortality assumption is based upon the standard table known as S3PA on a year of birth usage with CMl_2023 future improvement factors and a long-term rate of future improvement of 1.25% per annum, a standard smoothing factor (7.0) and no allowance for additional improvements (2023: S3PA on a year of birth usage with CMl_2022 future improvement factors and a long-term rate of future improvement of 1.25% per annum, a standard smoothing factor (7.0) and no allowance for additional improvements). This results in the following life expectancies:
