Calvario Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

(b) Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

Having considered future budgets and cash flows, the directors confirm that they have no material uncertainties about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. With respect to the next reporting year, the most significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity are the level of investment return and the performance of investment markets. In making this assessment the directors have considered the level of reserves held and the low level of non-discretionary expenditure.

(c) Income recognition

This comprises donations and investment income. All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income can be measured reliably.

Donations are recognised by the Charity in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year to which they relate to.

Investment income, which includes bank interest, is accounted for in the year in which the charity is entitled to receive it.

Charitable activities comprise of donation expenditure and support costs which comprise of organisational administration costs, these include direct costs of professional advice.

(e) Significant judgments and sources estimation uncertainty

In the view of the directors in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year.
