## **The GAP Arts Project Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW - continued** 

Notable Income includes Grants of £99,572 (£46,362 in 2019/20), Donations of £3,775 (£957 in 2019/20), Venue Hire £2,078 (£10,573 in 2019/20), and Sales of goods £10,461 (£22,336 in 2019/20).

## **Reserves Policy** 

The charity operates on a balancing budget basis however in line with guidance issued by the charity commission, the trustees aim to maintain enough free reserves at the end of the financial year to contribute to baseline running costs or any unexpected scenarios for a period of 6 months. 

For the 2021-22 financial year this figure is calculated at £10,800. The trustees consider this appropriate to ensure the charity can continue to operate effectively in the event of extreme financial circumstances. The level of reserves is reviewed at the end of each financial year. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that despite continued Covid-19 uncertainties the CIO has reserves, secured Government and other Covid support grants, as well as appropriate operational changes planned to support operations for 12 months from the date of authorising these financial statements.

## **Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of The GAP Arts Project** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the CIO for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages' 10 to 19 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the CIO as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

## **The GAP Arts Project Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

For donations/grants to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If conditions are attached to the donation/grant and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then the income is deferred or carried forward via restricted funds  until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs relating to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to a particular heading they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

Charitable activities - this comprises the direct costs of activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity, including grants payable and all associated support costs. 

## **Creditors** 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event where it is probable that there will be an outflow of economic resources to settle the obligation and where creditors can be estimated or measured reliably. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
