CALVARY EXETER Annual Report - Year Ended 31st Aug 2023 

## **Financial Review** 

## **Financial Position** 

The charity’s primary source of funds is from free-will offerings received from those regularly attending the Sunday services as well as various other supporters to the objectives of the charity. No material fundraising activities were undertaken. 

The charity’s finances are in a very healthy position. Income and expenditure were in line with expectations and the charity expects to maintain future expenditure in line with current expenditure. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

Keeping in line with the Charity’s future plans it has a policy to hold sufficient reserves to be able to respond in a timely manner to any opportunity presented that would allow the Charity to achieve those plans. Current reserves are minimal for meeting such possible opportunities. There must be, at minimum, the equivalent of 3 months worth of average expenditure held in unrestricted funds and available as a liquid asset held at all times. If the reserves fall below this figure, an extraordinary trustee meeting will be called. 

## **Spending and Reimbursement Policy** 

All money spent from an individual’s personal bank account, with the intention of being reimbursed by the church, must either be by a trustee, or under the direction of/agreed by a trustee. If a trustee is planning to spend over £1,000 for the charity, this must also be approved by at least one other trustee. 

## **Grant Making Policy** 

The Charity will make grants to external organisations and individuals by assessment of the Trustees on the basis of need and fulfilment of the charitable activities. There are no upper or lower limits of support. 

## **Safeguarding Policy** 

The charity takes seriously its responsibility to protect and safeguard the welfare of children, young people and adults with care and support needs who are entrusted to its care and has affirmed this in a written safeguarding policy. The policy endorses and follows all national and local safeguarding legislation and procedures and is regularly reviewed. 

## **Principal Sources of Funding** 

The charity’s principal source of funds is from voluntary donations received from those regularly attending the Sunday services as well as various other supporters of the objectives of the charity.

## **Plans For Future Periods** 

The charity’s plans for the future, including its aims and objectives and activities remain unchanged and the trustees expect the future direction of the charity to remain the same. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The charity is overseen by the church pastor, who is an office holder rather than an employee. He is supported in the decision-making process by the charity trustees and supported in the execution of his office by a team of volunteers. The charity has no employees but relies heavily upon all those who attend the fellowship to use their individual gifts and talents for the edification of the church. 

The office of ‘Pastor’ is defined and regulated by the constitution. The charity trustees are entitled to remove the pastor from his office in accordance with circumstances listed in the constitution, but neither the church nor the charity trustees are the pastor’s employer. 

There is no legal obligation on the charity to provide financial or other material support to persons holding the office of pastor. However, the charity is always delighted when it can provide such support to enable the pastor to devote his full time and attention to fulfilling the functions of his office without having to engage in other work to support himself and his family. 

The charity references the Charity Commission document CC3 – ‘The essential trustee: what you need to know, what you need to do’ for the induction and training of trustees.

CALVARY EXETER Annual Report - Year Ended 31st Aug 2023 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

For the Year Ended 31st Aug 2023 

## **1. Accounting Policies** 

## **General Information** 

Calvary Exeter is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered in England and Wales. The registered charity number, company number and address of the charity is given in the charity information on page 6. 

## **Statement of Compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) and Charities Act 2011. 

Calvary Exeter is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

## **Going Concern** 

The charity has a number of regular donors, giving the trustees reasonable confidence that sufficient funding will be secured beyond the current year. The trustees have assessed the level of funds held, in addition to the cash flow needs of the charity, concluding with confidence that it will be able to continue in its operation. 

## **Fund Accounting Policies** 

The General Funds are not subject to any restrictions regarding their particular use and are available for applicable general purposes of the charity. 

The Building Fund is a designated unrestricted fund. No fundraising has taken place for this fund, it is solely resources “earmarked” for a Building. 

## **Incoming Resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when; the charity is legally entitled to the resources; the trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources; and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

Donations are only included in the SoFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. 

Where incoming resources have related expenditure, the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SoFA.

CALVARY EXETER Annual Report - Year Ended 31st Aug 2023 

_Notes to the Financial Statements - Continued_ 

Incoming resources from Gift Aid tax reclaims are included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate. 

The value of voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustee’s annual report. 

Investment income is included in the accounts when receivable. 

## **Expenditure and Liabilities** 

Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources. It is probable that the paying out of resources will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliability. 

The charity makes grants to individuals and other institutions to further its charitable objectives. 

## **Fixed Assets** 

Tangible fixed assets which cost £500 or more and used for more than one year are capitalised. They are valued at cost price or a reasonable value on receipt. 

Depreciation is calculated on tangible fixed assets using the Straight Line Method, at 25% of the cost per year. 

## **Inventory** 

Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value. 

Donated goods are measured at their fair value, unless it is impractical to measure reliably the fair value of donated item(s). When there is no direct evidence of fair value for an equivalent item, a value is derived from: the cost of the item to the donor; or in the case of goods that are expected to be sold, the estimated resale value after deducting the cost to sell the goods. 

## **Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. 

## **Judgements in Applying Accounting Policies** 

In the application of the church's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates but are unlikely to be material. 

## **Cash at Bank and In Hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar amount.

CALVARY EXETER Annual Report - Year Ended 31st Aug 2023 

## **Financial Instruments** 

The church only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial Instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
