Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Rickard Animals Company Limited
We report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2020, which are set out on pages six to twelve.
Respective responsibilities of directors and examiner
The charity’s trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Companies Act 2006.
It is our responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act;
satisfy ourselves that the accounts are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act to state whether particular matters have come to our attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as directors concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters as set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
The charity does not require an audit in accordance with part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention
which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirments that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view ;and the accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) have been met.

1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and Companies Act 2006.
In preparing these accounts, the diectors have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS102 a restatement of comparative items was needed. No restatements were required. In accordance with the requirements of FRS 102 a reconciliation of opening balances and net income/ (expenditure) for the period is provided with the net income/ (expenditure) under previous GAAP adjusted for the presentation of investment gains/ (losses) as a component of reported income.
The accounts have been prepared to give a true and fair view and have departed from the Charities ( Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. The departure has involved following the 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 (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
There are no material uncertainties about the charities ability to continue in operation.
Donations
These are accounted for when received.
Legacies
Entitlement is the earlier of the charity receiving the final estate accounts or the legacy being received.
Investment properties
Investment properties are shown at their open market value. The surplus or deficit arising from the annual revaluation is taken to the Statement of Financial Activities. Depreciation is not provided on investment property.
Investments
Investments in UK equities and fixed interest loan stock are included in the accounts at market value. Any unrealised and realised gains and losses on these investments during the period are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.
