Independent examiner's report to the committee members of

Audley Players Theatre Club for the year ended 30 June 2022

Respective responsibilities of committee members and independent examiner

The organisation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (No.1174049) and, as such, is under no statutory obligation to prepare accounts in any particular format, nor is it obliged to have those accounts subject to any external scrutiny such as an audit or independent examination unless the turnover exceeds £25K. However, the committee members have determined that an independent examination would be appropriate regardless of the turnover amount.

Basis of independent examiner's report

An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes a consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as committee members concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, 1 matter has come to my attention: see over

Independent examiner's report to the committee members of

Audley Players Theatre Club

for the year ended 30 June 2022

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, 1 matter has come to my attention:

Fundraising has taken part with insuficient accounting. Funds not received in the correct Financial Year.

Stage Fright

There is no accounting entries for monies received or spent

The Christmas Market

There is no accounting entries for monies received or spent

Charity accounts may be prepared either on the receipts and payments basis or the accruals basis. Which of these is needed will depend on the income of the charity and whether or not it has been set up as a company:

Receipts and payments

This is the simpler of the two methods of preparation and may be adopted where a non-company charity has a gross income of £250,000 or less during the year. It consists of an account summarising all money received and paid out by the charity in the financial year, and a statement giving details of its assets and liabilities at the end of the year.
