The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year.

(c) Incoming res(wrces All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to. and virtually certain to receive, the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following policies are applied lo particular categories of income- Voluntary income is re￿iVed by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is nDt conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. 101 Page • CEFN GOLAU Donated services and facilities are included at the value lo th8 charity where this can be quantif18d. The value of seNice$ provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts. Investment income is induded when receivable. Incoming resources from ch8rilable trading activity are accounted for when earned. Incoming resources from granls, where related to performance and specific deliverables, are accounted for as the charity earns the righl to consideration by its performance. {d) Resources expended Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expendilure to which it relates: Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes. Charitable expenditLJre comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its aclivities and seNices for ils beneficiaries.

The costs of minor additions or those costing below £1,000 are not capitalised. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated lo write off the cost of each asset over ils expected useful life. which in all cases is estimated at 4 years. Impairment reviews are carried out as and when evidence comes to light that that the recovetable amount of a functional fixed asset is below ils nel book value due to damage. obsolescence or other relevant factors.
