## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **For the Year Ended 31st December 2022** 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## **a) Basis of financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared under the Church Accounting Regulations 2006 in accordance with applicable accounting standards (FRS102) and the current Statement of Recommended Accounting Practice and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2015). 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for investment assets, which are shown at market value. The financial statements include all transactions, assets and liabilities for which the PCC is responsible in law. They do not include the accounts of church groups that owe their affiliation to another body, nor those which are informal gatherings of church members. The Friends of All Saints have agreed with the PCC that they are responsible for maintaining the fabric of All Saints Church. 

## **b) Funds accounting** 

_Endowment funds -_ are funds the capital of which must be retained either permanently or at the PCC's discretion; the income derived from the endowment is to be used either as restricted or unrestricted income funds, depending upon the purpose for which the endownment was established in the first place. 

_Restricted funds -_ comprise (a) income from endowments which is to be expended only on 

the restricted purposes intended by the donor and (b) revenue donations or grants for a specific PCC activity intended by the donor. Where these funds have unspent balances, interest on their pooled investments is applied based on the underlying bank account interest received. 

_Unrestricted funds -_ are income funds which are to be spent on the PCC's general purposes. _Designated funds -_ are general funds set aside by the PCC for use in the future. Project funds are designated for particular projects for administration purposes only. Funds designated as invested in fixed assets for the PCC's own use abated in line with assets' annual depreciation charges in the SOFA. Designated funds remain unrestricted and the PCC will move any surplus to other general funds. 

## **c) Income and Endowments** 

Planned giving, collections and similar donations are recognised when received. Tax refunds are recognised when the incoming resource to which they relate is received. Grants and legacies are accounted for when the PCC is entitled to the use of the resources, an inflow of economic benefit is probable and the amounts due are reliably quantifiable. 

Dividends are accounted for when declared receivable, interest as and when accrued by the payer. All incoming resources are accounted for gross. 

Parish Giving Scheme income includes the asociated Gift Aid. 

## **d) Expenditure** 

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and is accounted for gross. _Grants -_ Grants and donations are accounted for when paid over, 

or when awarded where the award creates a binding obligation on the PCC. _Church Activities -_ The diocesan parish contribution is accounted for when paid. Any parish contribution unpaid at 31st December is provided for in these accounts as an operational (though not a legal) liability and is shown as a creditor in the balance sheet.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)** 

## **For the Year Ended 31st December 2022** 

## **e) Fixed Assets** 

## _Tangible Fixed Assets_ 

Consecrated and beneficed property of any kind is excluded from the accounts by s96(2) of the Charities Act 1993. 

Movable church furnishing held by the Vicar and Churchwardens on special trust for the PCC and, which require a faculty for disposal, are accounted as inalienable property unless consecrated. They are listed in the church's inventory which can be inspected. For inalienable property acquired prior to 1st January 2014 there is insufficent cost information available and therefore such assets are not valued in the accounts. 

All expenditure on consecrated or beneficed buildings and individual items costing under £500 are written off in the year they were incurred. 

By virtue of this policy the PCC has tangible fixed assets, a Ride on Mower and two other mowers for use in Churchyard Maintenance. This year the deposit was paid on a new Churchyard shed and some matting was laid in the Churchyard to assist vehicular access 

Depreciation policies are as follows; Churchyard Machinery - 25% Straight line basis Churchyard Buildings and paths - 20% Straight line basis Donation Station - 33% Straight line basis 

## _Investments_ 

Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. 

## **f) Current Assets** 

Amounts owing to the PCC at 31st December in respect of fees, rents or other income are shown as debtors less provision for amounts that may prove uncollectable. 

Short-term deposits include cash held on deposit with the CBF Church of England Funds

## **Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)** 

## **For the Year Ended 31st December 2022** 

## **4 Staff Costs** 

## **a) Wages and Salaries** 

2022 2021 £ £ 16,886 8,839 

During the year the PCC employed  a cleaner, a caretaker, and a Building/ Groundsman who also performed the roles of Sexton and Verger. A new Administrator was appointed in February and in September the same employee added the Activity Coordinator role to her job. This aspect of her role is financed by the All Saints Angels project. Payments to all staff were large enough to attract tax and national insurance which were accounted for to HMRC using the services of a payroll provider. The PCC also offers the Nest Pension scheme to qualifying employees. 

## **b) Payments to PCC members** 

No payments or expenses were paid to any member of the PCC in connection with their services as PCC members. Chris Bloor, Sheila Crow & Linda Salmon received fees in conection with their services at Funerals and Weddings. 

## **5 Financial Activity within the Funds** All Saints Fabric and Resources Restricted Fund 

The PCC established this fund to receive grants and other income in connection with the activities Angels Project and the Tower of Strength project to restore the tower, provide a toilet and small kitchen. Further details are at Note 12. 

## St James Alteration Fund 

There has been little financial activity in this fund this year. 

## Churchyard Fund 

The Fund is used to maintain the churchyard at All Saints. It supports the work of the 'Holy Mowers' a team of volunteers who maintain the churchyard. The PCC transfers 50% of its share of fees received for burials, interments and memorials to the fund.This totalled £3,030 in 2022 (£2,845 2021). 

## Churchyard Trust 

The PCC identified this restricted trust, originally part of the Churchyard Fund, to separate the Churchyard investment from the running costs. 

Income generated by this fund is transferred on receipt to the Churchyard Fund to support running costs. St James Fabric Designated Fund 

The Fabric Fund receives money that has been left to the Church 'In Memoriam' and other gifts for St James Native Designated Fund 

The PCC set this fund up to separate the income and expenditure associated with the Native magazine.

The overdrawn All Saints Fabric and Resources Fund is due to timing differences between the receipt of grant and the payment of contractors. The project is fully financed and the fund will right its self in Spring 2023. At the planning stage cash flow projections had shown the fund would be overdrawn at this stage of the project.
