READING KOREAN CHURCH INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

TO THE TRUSTEES OF READING KOREAN CHURCH

I report on the accounts of READING KOREAN CHURCH for the year ended 31 December 2021 which are set out on pages 4 to 9.

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

The Society's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Society's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is our responsibility to:

Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement

Our examination was carried out in accordance with 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 it seeks explanations from the trustees 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 any material matters of concern have come to our attention and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent Examiner's Statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to our attention:

  1. which give me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

  2. (i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

  3. (ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or

  4. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

READING KOREAN CHURCH Notes to the Financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021

1 Accounting policies

(a) Basis of preparation

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland, the Charities Act 2011, Accounting & Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (Charties SORP FRS102).

All incoming resources are included on the statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonably accuracy.

Voluntary Income

Voluntary income is received by way of member's subscriptions and donations. Members' subscriptions income is credited in the financial statements in period when it is received. No adjustment is made in respect of subscriptions outstanding or received in advance. Donations are taken to income in the year of receipt.

Interest Receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receiveable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Charitable Activities

Incoming resources from charitable activities are accounted for in the period when the production takes place. Income is deferred when admission fees are received in advance of the performances to which they relate.

(c) Expenditure and liabilities

Expenditure is recognised on the accurals basis. The charity is not registered for VAT, thus all costs are shown inclusive of VAT charged.

(d) Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulative depreciation and any accumulative impairment losses. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life. The charity does not currently have any capitalised assets.

Fitting Out, Improvements & Equipment : Over 5 years

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

(f) Funding Accounting

Unrestricted Funds

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted Funds

Restricted funds can only used for particular restricted purpose within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

(g) Creditors

Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method.
