PROGRE&S MADE DURING THE YEAR
This year has been the f]rsi 'nortnal' year of college operdiions and activity since the pandemic. This has a]lowed
students to return to nornial residence and to undertake teaching and social attivities without health related restrictions.
It has pernjitted international travel and in-lurn a gradual return io conferences and local busin¢$5es to operate
unregtslated again so commercial property rental income has markedly improved. The tollege has transltioned to hybrid
working pr￿1]r¢S where ever praetieal and has aimed to rekindle the strong community on which it is based.
The College is always slriving to improve its own academic stsndard4 and is active tn promoting the wider collegiate
University's standing in iernis of teaching and resvarch and the ￿5]tion of the colleges within it. The College aims to
build upon its existing academi¢ 5tr¢ngths by recruiting Fellows who are outstsndillg in their field of study and by
admitting talented students.
Although the New Librdry was operntional from earty 2021 it has thrÉved this year as a multi-functional resource and
learning centre for the college and its students. OUT S￿dents have enjoyed the high quality setting in which to study and
prowss in consolidating the archives inio a stngle location h&5 been substsntial. Th¢ art gallery has proven a great
5ucces& operating with three exhibttions per year, this has provided an enhancement to th¢ local community and new
¢onnections with similar institutions nationally and internationally are being made. The College was proud to win a
number of design and material award5 within the consmiciion Tndusty and was nominated as a fmalisi and subsequently
won the RIBA Stirling prize. This recognised the high qua]ity design and very long temi expected life of th¢ building.
Since this success the college has on occasions opened the building to the public and is conducting tours for member5 and
other interested parties.

Substantial financial commitment from the college.
Perhaps the niost significant impact during the yedr ihough h&8 been inflationary pressures on college costs in
conjllnction with a labour shortage. This has led io high staff turnover, high wage growth and substantial tncrease in
the day-to-day costs on colleg¢ ottrdtions. Owrtt]nities to grow income in line with inflation are limited which in-
turn is leading to financial pressures on the college's (V¢￿tIonal budgeL

The College deems it prudent to plan for a mod¢5t recurreni surplus to pftivide stsbility and to allow for new funds for
r¢inv¢stinent.
Ineome
Overall income (before investment gains and a¢luarial pension changes) has increased by 17.6Q/ts when compared to the
previous year. This was due to a full recovery following the pandemi¢ in member income for accommodation and
catering. a partial recovery of conference business and in investmenl inwrne. In addition, donations r¢lat¢d to student
support tncreased in the year. In a reversal from l&st year. markd gains on securiti¢s significantly offset solne
smaller capital losses in commercial property values.
Income from academic fee5 w&s slightly lower than the PTevious year as fewer postgraduate students were admitted.
There was Teduction in research activity and income sUPPOrt from the University towards the Cambridge Bursary
Scheme.

YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
Income from Coll¢g¢-provided accomm(yJation ar￿ ￿tering was £3.988k (£3.165k for 2021-22). an inctra8e of 260/0 on
last year. Although College member accomrnodation and catering income have l)oth rKovered and now exceed pre-
pandetnic levels. confer¢nc¢ revenues have been slow¢r to recover. Income from conf¢T¢nce activity w&8 just und¢r s￿/0
of pre-pandemic levels.
Investment income incrv&sed by 13.If/*o to £4,214k (£3.726k previous year} against a bwkdrop of turbulent financial
markets. Despite these challenges actual incotne grew by 11.4 /0. The FKJlicJ' spending rdte on a total retum accounting
basis, which had be¢n r¢duced in 2020 to 3fy/•, wa5 reinstaied 10 3.25tl/o for 2022-?3. Rentsl income from the commercial
property estate sirnilarly increased by I1.4(/*y with giN)d rental collKlion and few voids lollowing the challenging period
of the pandemic.
Total donation incom¢ was £3.727k (£2,616k 2021-22), refiecting wntinued generou5 th)nations in support of student
welfare and fu)ancial assistsnce, a large student bursaries rel*ed gift and a substantial donation towards the Pepys
Building restoration project.
Expenditure
Expendiwre on education increas¢d to £5.855k (£5.049k previous year). which compares to £2.894k received {£3,016k
previous year) directly frotn academic fees. providing a ￿lCulated deficit on educationJ activity of £2,961k (£2.033k
previous year). This deriv¢5 from an Incre￿ in teaching and tutorial related costs, including the New Library faciliiy
and investment Én 5tud¢nt mentsl health and wellbeing. Expenditure on educatÈon accounts for 43.40/(* (previous year
43.20/0) of toial expenditure.
ExpeThditure on College-provided accommodation and catering increased io £5.023k (£4,164k previous yearl fully
recovering from pandemic restrictions. Other opeming costs related io accommodation and e&tering and ¢onf¢r¢n¢es
increased by over 92•/• ID line with a return to nonnal activity and due to incre&5¢ COnfe￿n¢t activity.
Total staifing costs in¢r¢ased by 23.￿/th over the previo￿% year and amounting to £5244k (£42(Ak previous year) or
38.W/o of total costs (36.50/0 the previou5 year). This reflects the coniinued tighi laknur market throughout th¢ y¢ar. In
particular, staff reiention and recNittnent was challenging. The College followed the pay award Èn line with th¢ higher
education sector for its employees, but fither enhanced this with an uplift given to stsff on lower pay rates in
accordance with the College's policy to mat¢h the 'iieal Living Wage.. During the year, the College also paid two
discretionary bonuses to staff in recognition of the growing cost of living.
The Governing Body remains concerned almiut th¢ long-terni costs of providing defmed benefit pensions, and whilst it
has taken steps to ty io limii future liabilities by ceasing to ofTer a defined benefit scheme io new Tron-academic staff,
rnany current employees participate IEJ a defined benefit salary scheme. There h&s been an increase in the FRS 102
pension deficii. £2.01 Ik l£1.969k 2021-22), with the deficits for CCFPS incre&8ing by 25.5Yo and USS scheme
decre&5ing by 17.40/0. The USS wision provision accounting adjustm¢nt is included in Other Expenditure.
Depreciation costs for operdtional buildings remained constant at £1,646k (£1,642k previous year). there being no
significant capital expendibjre on opemional buildang5 in the year.
College net assets increased from £197.Im to £201.8m * the of the year. Endowment values tncreased due to
generous donations and a marked improvement in financial market va]ues compar¢d with the previous year end.
Unrestricted reserves increased by £1,369k due to the reclas5ificaiion of funds previously treated as restrÈ¢t
Capital Eipendlture
The College's operaiional assets, the largest assd ¢las5 of the College, remain a financial pressure for the Coll¢ge. There
was no capiial expenditure (separnte from building maintenance) in the year while the programme coneentrnled on
significant main￿nanCe projects. Effrfts from the pandwnic continue to reach into the maintenance programme although
the back log in the genernl progrdmme has been reduced and molnentum (Tathering on improvement projects planning.
The Coll¢ge commissi(Trns a rolling condition survey of its operdiional e5taie whioh infornis its forward-looking fiv¢-year

approved a Statement of Investment Principles. whi¢h clearly sets out the investsneni objectives, risk appetite and
responsible investhjeni policy. The purpose of the endowtnent is to preserye the rwal value after making distributions and
inflation and to provide a steady reliable cashflow to SUp￿rt the college. The College expects its fund managers to
integraie a responsible investment approach and to align with the principles of the LN Compact.
The Coll¢ge holds a securities-based portfolio which w&s valued at £57.Om (£50.Om previous year). Its principal fund

arrangements entered into.
A financial wet and a financial liability ar¢ offset onty when there is a legalty enforceable right to set off the recognised
amounts and an intention either to settle on a net basi5, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultsneously.
Financial assets
Basic financial assets include trade and other receivables. cash and cash equivalents and investments in ¢ommewial
paper (i.e. deposits and bonds). These ￿ets are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement
constitutes a fu)ancing transaction, where the transaction is measured ai the present Value of the future receipts

rate method. Financial assets ar¢ aswsed for indicatOTS of impairment at each reporting date. If there is objectsve
evidence of impairn)enL an impairmeni loss is rwised in the Sthtemeni of Comprehensive Income.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost the impaim)ent loss is the difference beNeen the canying amount of the
asset and the present value of the estimated futtfft c&th flo￿ diswunted ￿ the asset's original effective interest rate.
Other ffftancial assets, including investtn¢nts in equkty instnunents, whi¢h are not subsidiaries or joint ventures, are
initially measured at fair value which is t￿l¢allY the transaction price. These assets are subsequently carried at fair value
and chang¢s in fair Yalu¢ at the rewrting date are recognised in the Swement of Comprehensive Income. Where the
investment in equity in5tNmenrs is not publicly traded and where the fair value cannot be reliably ￿easUr¢d, the assets
ar¢ m¢asured at cost 1¢$5 impairn)ent. Investtnents in property or other physical &8sets do not constitute a fmancia]
instrument and are not included.
Financia] assets are de-recognised whell the rontradual rights io the c&5h flows from the asset expire or are Settled or
substantially all of the risks and rewards of owneT5hip are tranSf¢￿ed io another party.
Financial Liabilities
Basic financial liabilitics include trdde and other payablo, bank loan5 and intergroup loans. These liabilities are initially
recognised at transaction price unless the arrdngemeni constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt in5trum¢nt is
measured at the present value of the fumre payments di%ounted at a market rate of inierest. Debi instruments are
subsequently carricd at alnortised cost using the effKtive interest ￿te tnethod.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaciion costs of th¢ Ii)an to the extent thai it is
probable thai 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 noL they
are pr¢5¢nt¢d as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction pri¢e and subsequently

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Pensions
FRS102 makes the distin¢¢ion beNeen a group plan and a multi-employer scheme. A group plan consists of a
collection of entities und¢r common control typically with a sponsoring employer. A multi-employer scheme is a
scheme for entiiies not under common control and represents It)Tiically) an industy-wide scheme such as USS.
The accounting for a multi-eTnplov¢r Scheme where the employer has entered inio an agreement with the scherne
that deteTmines how the employer will fijnd a deficit results in the reCo￿llIon of a liability for the contributions
payable that arise from the agreement (to the extent that they relate to the deficit) and the resulting expense in profit
or loss in a¢cordance with section 28 of FRS 10? The Governing Body is satisfied that the 5¢heme provided by
USS and the Church of England Funded Pension Scheme meet the defmition of a multi-employer scheme and has
therefore recognised the dÉscounted fair value of the cOntraCth￿ contnbutions under the fimding plan in existence at
the date of approving the f￿ancial stsiements.
All other accounting judg¢Tnents and esiimates 8r¢ detailed under the ap￿0p￿e ac¢owiling policy.

The majority of assets held in the College's collections were acqtsired before 1st July 1999 and, because reliable
estimates of cost or ValU￿1￿n are not available for these on a cosi-benefit basis, they have not been capitalised. During
the year ended 30 June 2023. the College was gifted two items of culturdl importance.. a bust and a itr centiiry spinet.
These assets have been capitalised.. the busi ai acitsal cost and the spinet the ingurnice value been taken as the

The latest available complete actuarial valuatton of the Retirement Income Builder is as at 31 March 2020 (the
valuaiion date) and was carried out using the proj¢¢icd unit method.
Since th¢ ins¢ithtion cannot identify its share of USS Retirement Income Builder (defined knefit) assets and
liabilities, the followÉng disclosures reflect those relevani for those assets and liabilities as a whole.
The 2020 valuation was the sixth valuation for the scheme under the seheme-specific funding regime introduced
by the Pensions Aci 2(NJ4, which requires schemes to have sufficient and appropriatr assets to cover their
technical provisions. Ai the valuation date, the value of the &5sets of the scheme was £66.5 billion and the value
of the scheme's technical provisions was £80.6 billion indicating a shortfall of £14.1 billion and a funding ratio of
83%.
The key financtal &ssumptions used in the 2020 valu*ion are described below. More detail is set out in the
