## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Preston Nomads Cricket Club** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Preston Nomads Cricket Club ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 September 2020. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

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

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

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)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2020** 

## **1. General information** 

Preston Nomads Cricket Club is a private company, limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on page 1 of the Report of the Trustees. 

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). 

## **2. Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006* and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. 

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. 

## **Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty** 

There are no significant judgements made in applying the accounting policies. There are no key assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. 

## **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. 

The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: 

Donations and gifts are included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable. 

Grants relating to revenue are included in the statement of financial activities on a systematic basis over the periods in which the charity recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Where grants are received in respect of expenses or losses already incurred by the entity are recognised in the statement of financial activities in the period when the grant becomes receivable. 

Grants relating to capital are included in the statement of financial activities on a systematic basis over the useful economic life of the asset. Grants relating to assets which are deferred are recognised as a liability. 

Income from charitable trading activity is accounted for when earned. 

## **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 cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
