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

Income from govemment and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Burmantofts Community Friends Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 (continued) C Donated services and facilities Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economlc benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP {FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees, annual report for more information about their contribution. On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. D Interest recelvable Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity. this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. Fund accounting Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at thelr discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations whlch the donor has specified are to be solely used for partlcular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. F Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: Costs of ralsing funds are those costs incurred In attractlng voluntary income, and those Incurred in trading activitles that raise funds. Expenditure on charitable activities comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both the direct costs and support costs relating to such activities. Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. Doc ID.. 1733a1a5a92cfi789d877d8413d6787688788284

Burmantofts Community Friends Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 A¢¢ountlng pollcles The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: a Basis of preparation These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the the Statement of Recommended Practice.. Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland {FRS 102) (effective I January 2019) and with the Charities Act 2011.

Income from govemment and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met. Doc ID.. 1733a1a5a92cfi789d877d8413d6787688788284
Burmantofts Community Friends Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 (continued) C Donated services and facilities Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economlc benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP {FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees, annual report for more information about their contribution. On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. D Interest recelvable Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity. this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank. Fund accounting Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at thelr discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations whlch the donor has specified are to be solely used for partlcular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. F Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: Costs of ralsing funds are those costs incurred In attractlng voluntary income, and those Incurred in trading activitles that raise funds. Expenditure on charitable activities comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both the direct costs and support costs relating to such activities. Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. Doc ID.. 1733a1a5a92cfi789d877d8413d6787688788284

Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due, I Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. m Creditors and provisions Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.
