Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless othewise stated in the relevant note(s) 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 (FRS102} (SORP 2019) and the Financial Reporting Slandard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) and Charities AGt 2011. The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency ofthe charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The Charitable Incorporated Organisation has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for Charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. Going concern At the time of approving the accounts. the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charitable Incorporated Organisation has adequate reserves to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Trustees are confident that Ihe levels of liquidity and free reserves will not affect the Charitable Incorporated Organisation operations. Thus. the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts. Fund accounting Unrestricted funds are the charitable Incorporated Organisation's free reserves available for the Trustees to apply in accordance with the charitable objects. Restricted funds are subject to specific restrictive conditions imposed by the donor. All restricted funds are accounted for as restricted income and expenditure for the purposes is charged to the fund. Income recognition All income is recognised once the Charitable Incorporated Organisation has entitlement to the income, there is sufficient certainly of receipt and so it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Donations and legacies comprise donations which are recognised in the accounts when re￿ived, with the exception of known legacies which are accounted for when their receipt is certain. Income from charilable activities is recognised on an accrual's basis ex￿pt for grants receivable, which are recognised on the date on which their unconditional payment is confirmed by the donor. Fixed Assets Capital expenditure is treated as a fixed asset and depreciated to write off each asset over its estimated useful life Expenditure recognits'on Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charitable Incorporated Organisation to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

THE ALSOP FOUNDATION CIO NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATElblENTS FOR YEAR END 31ST MARCH 2022 All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis. All expenses, including support cosls and govemance costs, are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expendilure headings in the Statement of Financial Activities. Support and governance costs are applied to unrestricted funds unless specifically included in the restrictions, as specified by the donor. Expenditure on charitable activities relates to the operation of the charity comprising of direct charitable expenditure to meet the objectives of Ihe Charitable Incorporated Organisation.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks. other short- term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Financial instruments The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments, and Section 12 '0ther Financial Instruments Issues, of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the fi'nancial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Basic financial assets Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. Basic financial liabililies Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at Iransaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cosl, using the effective interest rate method. Derecognition of financial liabilities Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. Critical accounting estimates and judgements In the application of Ihe charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other SoUr￿s. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

THE ALSOP FOUNDATION CIO NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR END 31ST IblARCH 2022 The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. All expenditure is accounted for on an accrual basis. All expenses, including support costs and governance costs, are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings in the Statement of Financial Activities.
