The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993(the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. ## **It is my responsibility to:** - examine the accounts under section 43 of the 1993 Act - to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act); and - to state whether matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of the independent examiner’s report:** My 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 of disclosures in the accounts, and seeking 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 the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements above. ## **Independent examiner’s statement:** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: - 1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act: and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act have not been met or - 2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. ## Noble Dani George Oasis Accountancy Solutions 41 Mayville Avenue Bristol- BS34 7AB **5** Gil al Pentecostal Assembl Recei ts and ents accounts CC16a For the period 01-04-2022 31-0&2023 Sectlon A Receipts and payments Unre stricte d funds Endow ment runds tothe neatest £ Restricted funds to the neaf8St£ Total funds Last y•ar to Ihe nearest to Ihe neaiesi £ to the n8aiesi £ A1 Recei Offer 15.07853 31.10492 13.34199 78766 15J)7853 31.104S2 1334199 787ffj6 26244.00 Don ation Baftk interest 6.389.00 Sub total{Gross incon￿ for AR Sub total 60.313.10 60313.10 32&33.00 Total recelpts 60.313.10 60.313.10 32.633.00 A3Pa ments ftent 3 1111JO 3111110 2 070.00 4 600.00 7.500.00 Ch8 rity Don81ions lowance to Church minv&ter H)norauriJm to speakers Printing & Siatw)nery Electronics 7.OOOnO 1 3121)7 7JJOOIIO 12117 83.18 119.00 Mssion works ftefreshments 10.19193 10 191S3 5 156.00 50.00 143.90 497.52 47.03 Sjbscriptions Msce118neous expense$ Bank charges 2 376.16 18057 76.16 18057 Sub total 34.17113 24.171.73 ZO266.63 A4 Ass¢t arKI Investment purchases, see table Equipmertt 1224.00 1224.00 Sub total Total nts 24 171.73 24 171.73 t of recei A5 Transfers between f A6 Cash funds last h funds thls ar end 36.141.37 36.141.37 11.142.37 24.955.37 61 (96.74 24.955.37 61 096.74 13.813.00 24 955.37 Section B Statement of assets and liabilities Unrestr Restricted icted funds funds Endovmient funds Cate ories Details to nearest £ to nearest £ nearest £ B1 Cash funds Cashl Cheques in hand Cash atbank 61.097 Total cash funds yrTpnts accountlsll 61,097 Unrestr Icted funds Restrlcted funds Endowinent funds to nearest £ to nearest e nearest £ Details B2 Other monetary assets Fund to which asset belongs Cost loptionall Current value loptionall Details B3 Investment assets Fund to which assèt b•longs Cost loptlonall Current value loptlonall Details Sound System B4 Assets retalned for the charity's own use Fund to whlch Amount due loptlonall When due (Op￿Onall Details relates B5 Llabilities Signed by one or two trustees on behalf of all the trustees Signature Print Name Date of approval 271h Jan 2024 Pastor..
