Golng concern: There are no materlal uncertalntle5 about the charity'5 ablllty to contlnue. bl Reco8nltlon of Income All Income Is recoBnlsed once the charlty has entltlement to the income, It Is probable that the Income wlll be recelved and the amount of income receivable can be measured rellably. Therefore recelpts from membershlp and other receipts re5ultSngfrom the maln charitable activltle5 of the Synagogue are recognlsed when they are reIVed, other than those membershlp reeelpts that are recelved in advance for subsequent accountlng perlods. Income from voluntary donatlons, legacles and appeals15 also usually reco8nlsed only when received. However, materlal Item5 of income to whlch the Synagogue Is entltled or which have been promlsed. recelpt of which occurs after the balan sheet date, are reco8nlsed and Included In debtorsi provlded that thelr eventual recelpt15 both certaln and quantiflable. cl C•tegorlsatlon of Income The SORP requires Incomln8 resources to be categorised In such a way as to dlstlnguish Income from the maln charltable functlons of the Synagogue from income generated by other activitles. from voluntary donatlons, fundralslng actlvltles and from Snvestment Income. Thus the subscriptlon Income generated by membership fees and by reservations of Synagogue 5eatlng is treated as Income generated by the maln charitsble activity of the Synagogue. Income generated by other artfivitles related to Jewlsh rltual and communlty life is also within this category. Voluntary income includes all types of donations and legacle5,both to the Synagogue itself for unrestrlcted use, and to the variou5 restricted funds of the Synagogue. Rental Income from the investment property and bank interest receivable 15 categori5ed as investsnent income. Income generated from fundraising actlvliles are activitle5 that are undertaken for the main purpose of generating funds although they may also fulfil other communltyfunctions too. These include income for hall hlre, fundralslng attivities, the publlcation of the Year Book and the lettln8 of parking spaces on the Synagogue forecourt. dl Recognition of expenditure Expendlture is recognlsed On there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefft to a thlrd partyi It is probable that a transfer of economic benefits wlll be required in settlement and the amount of the obligatlon can be measured rellably. li
THE GOLDERS GREEN BFfH HAMEDRASH CONGREGATION Accounts forthe year ended 31 August 2024 Accounting pollcies (¢ontlnued) e) Categorlsatlon of expenditure Expenditure is categorised so far as Is pratticable to match the categorisations used for incoming resources. The costs of 5UPPOrting the main charftable actlvlties of the synagogue include the remuneration, expenses and pensions of the Rabbonim and Chazan, plus a slgnificant proportion of maintaining and runnin8 the buildings. Costs of provldlng ritual items and community related actlvities also come into this category. As Tzedakah is an integral part of the charitable actlvity of the Shul, the dlstrlbution of grants 15 included in this category. Costs involved in generating funds consist of those items of expenditure incurred as part of actlvltles specifically undertaken in order to generate funds. These Include all costs involved in enabling the hall to be made available for hire such as refurbishment costs, staff costs incurred In relatlon to the hall hlre and proportlon of the costs of maintainin8 and running the bulldlng. They also include costs of major fundralsing events and the cost of produclng the Year Book. Support costs Include all costs of runnin8 the offlce, finance charges, governance costs and sundry expenses such as 8ifts and advertlsing. Support costs are dlrectly allocated to the categorles of expendlture wlth the exceptSon of maintenance, cleanSn8 and repairs, and power and water, which are allocated In accordance wlth the Trustees, estlmate of use. The costs of running and maintainin8 the Syna808ue buSlding are classified a5 building related expenses. These include expenditure on caretaklng, repalrs and maintenance, utilitles and Insurance. Support costs and building related expenditure are normally allocated to the main charltable activity of the Synagogue except where an identlflable and material cost is Incurred In supportln8 Other actlvltle5. fl Flxed assets The Syna808ue buildlng has hlstorlcally been written down to a nomlnal value of £1 In the accounts. As the bullding Is central to the life of the Kehillah and there are halachlc restrlctlons on Its sale, It Is Inappropriate to value It at open-market valuatlon. The Board therefore do not consider that any purpose would be served by carrylng out a revaluation of the building for accounts purposes. This is a departure from FRS 102 whlch is done to provlde a true and fair view. Addltions to freehold property are shown at cost of acquisttlon lincluding associated expenses) plus costs of alteration and improvement required to bring Such properties into a condition suitable for their purpose. Donations of freehold properties are shown at valuation. Depreciatlon Is not provlded on the houses owned by the Synagogue as they are subjett to an ongolng regime of maintenance whlch ensures their net residual value Is not lower than thelr book values. Replacements of tangible flxed assets within the exlsting Shul buildin8 are wrltten off in the year of acquisition. Whlle thls Is not In accordance with accountlng standards, thls accountlng policy has been followed for many years and Is consistent with the valuatlon of the building at £1 wlthln the accounts. The Charlty Commission has indicated that thls is an acceptable accountlng policy. 12
THE GOLDERS GREEN BETH HAMEDRASH CONGREGATION Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024 Accountlng policies l¢ontlnued) gl Restrfcted funds and Endowment fvnds Restricted funds are funds subject to speclfic trusts declared or authorised by thelr donors which conform to the wider objects of the Synagogue. Expenditure of these funds must meet the requirements of their specific trusts. Endowment funds are restricted funds which must be retained as investments or as assets and which may not be expended. although income derived from them may be spent approprlately. The Synagogue ha5 a number of such funds. some of which are adminlstered and controlled by members who are not Trustees of the Synagogue. Externally controlled bank accounts are held by agents on behalf of the charity, Summarised accounts for these funds are glven In the notes to the financial statements. Other restricted funds are under the direct adminlstration and control of the Syna808ue and Its Trustees or of the Rav, and movements on these funds are summarlsed In the notes to the flnancial statements. h) Desl8nated funds Unrestrlcted funds may be desi8nated for a partlcular project at the discretion of the 8oard of Management. The Congregation owns and occuples large premises which periodically require major expenditure for repairs. Instead of allowing all these cost5 to be charged to the SOFA when the money is spent, the Board of Management has bullt up a fund over the year5 by transfers from the Accumulated fund. Thls deslgnated fund Is the Dllapidations Reserve. and when malor repairs and renovatlons are carried out transfer of an appropriate amount Is made back to the Accumulated fund. Followlng a major refurbishment of the Synagogue Hall, a deslgnated fund known as the Hall Renovation fund was establlshed. This Is funded by transfers from the unrestricted funds of the Synagogue amountin8 to 5% of the value of the net income from the hall rentals each year. When future refurbishment of the hall is carrled out, a transfer of an approprlate amount wlll be made back to unrestricted fund5. 11 Unrestrlcted funds Funds donated to the Synagogue for the restrlcted purpose of contrlbutlng to the acquisition of freehold property are consldered to be unrestrltted funds once the property has been acqulred. Such funds are then transferred to the capitsl fund which is identified as a dlstlnct fund within the unrestrlcted funds of the Synago8ue. All remaining unrestrlcted funds are held in the Accumulated fund. Il Flnancial Instrument5 The Charlty only has financial a55ets and flnanclal Ilabllltles of a kind that qualify as basic financial Instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognlsed at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. 13
