Report

To: Veronica Sharpe From: Leon Edwards Date: Friday 8 April 2022

Subject: Review of 2021 Parish of St Barnabas Homerton Annual Accounts

Introduction

The report is to reflect on the review of the accounts. To highlight any transactions where description or monetary amounts may not reflect true and fair view of relevant income or expense. I will be analysing the trial balance to focus on any material expense figures that may seem too high or not reflect true. Also focusing on the amounts that are significantly different from the average cost under each expense heading.

I will be analysing the trial balance to focus on consistency of recording various income under the correct heading. This will involve reviewing the description of income under each income heading. Finally I will then compare the current year to last year to look for any material increase or decrease in income and expenses.

Summary

After reviewing the trial balance and Income and Expenditure comparison, I am satisfied that reasonable care and attention have been made

.

Overall, the accounts show a true and fair view of period 2021.

There are no recommendations to make as I am satisfied with the data entry.

St Barnabas

CCLA £1,155,420.40

This is held through CCLA, which is governed by the Central Board of Finance of the Church of England. It is not held within church funds. This capital fund is restricted for the use of St Barnabas in order to fund the building or installation of additional facilities.

The funds of the PCC have been appropriately analysed, and these statements have been prepared in accordance with this analysis.

Tax status

As a charity, the PCC is exempt from paying income and corporation tax but does have to pay value added tax.

Staff costs & numbers

The Parish of St Barnabas Homerton employed 2 members of staff during this financial period.

Payments to PCC/DCC members

No payments were made to PCC/DCC members or any persons connected with them during this financial period. No material transaction took place between the charity and a PCC/DCC member or any person connected with them.

Risk assessment

The Trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe their reserves stated, combined with an ongoing review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions.

Reserves policy

The Trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain appropriate to the charity’s needs. This is based on the charity’s size and the level of financial commitments held. The Trustees aim to ensure the charity will be able to fulfil its charitable objectives even if there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. The Trustees will endeavour not to set aside funds unnecessarily.

Public benefit

The charity acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or aims that are for the public benefit. Details of how the charity has achieved this are provided in the Annual Report (page 5). The Trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit before deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
