FIIIANCIAL REVIEW
Review of Flnun¢iol Position
For the year ended 31 August 2023 Mounlview reported net expenditure of ￿￿,8]1. including a tax
credit provision of £581,377 in relation to Theaire Tax Relief of which there was a positive movement
in vnre5tricted funds of £112,684. Charges to de5igTrated funds include non-cash for depreciation
and effective interest payable amountin9 to £937.049. The remaining surplus of £87.554 relates
primarily to restricted funds offset by the expenditure of the last of the endowment fund.
Total income of E8.502.998 has intreased by £628,58918%1 from 2021122. Thi5 is due to
etsmbination of growth in otrr venue hire activity. fvndraisin9 and an inflationary inc¥ease in tuition
fees. The main souree of on90ing funding for the Charity conlinue5 to be tuition lees which
contributed 80% of tolal incorne. £1.485,369117% of tuition incornel was received Irom the EdLJCation
and Skills Fundin9 Agency in ihe form of Dance & Drama Awards for individual student5 which cover
both tuition fee5 and maintenance support.
The Dance & Drarna Award scheme has not kept pace with the cost of training and the cost ol
living in London. As a result. student5 have lound themselve5 moTe financially Secure by obtaining
a Sludent loèn and so the uptake of the Dance & Drama Awards has dimirsished over the last few
year5. Mounlview has now exiled the scheme and will no longer provide awards to new students
from 2023124. Instead, we will look to grow our seholarships provision to pro¥ide fi.nancial support to
those who are m95t in need.
Total expenditure of £9.821.186 ha5 increased by only £203.CQI 12%) from 2021122 desp￿te an average
increase in salary costs of 3.6% and significant inflalionary increase5.
In October 2022. we began repayment of our loan commitments to the London Borough ol
Southwark under a new agreement. Inlerest repayments of £394.435 were due ITh 2022123. However,
accounting standards require us to char9e full effective Ente￿$t of r195,689 10 be charged to the
accoijnts with the difference of £401,254 being held on the balance sheet as a liability. at 31
August 2023. the total value of unpaid effective interest held on the balance sheet is £4.042.985. This
will continue to increase and artificially worsen the reserve5 until 2025126 when the amount of loan
interest payable be9ins to exceed the lull eHective inierest due to be rtCO9ni5ed. at which point the
effective interest will begin to be released back Into the reserves.
Investment Poli
Under Its Articles tsf Association. the Charity has the power trj make any investments that the
Trustees see fit. The Chaiity'5 modest level of reserve5 requires an investment policy which priorilises
accessibility of funds. As of 31 August 2023. no lunds were held on deposil or in investment fund5
which the Charity consiclers the most appropriate investmenl strategy for its current financial
posillon.
eserves policy
The Charity's total reserves have reduced by £736,811 169x1 from 2021122. Of this. £112,684
represents the surplus for the year on unrestricted funds, whilst £937.049 relates to the designated
fund delicit through which capital project depreciation and interest charge5 pa55. 01 which £542,614
re non-cash transactions. A5 the designated fund has now been depleted, E310,5D4 01 non-cash
charges that would normally have been posted to the designated fund have been Charged to
unrestricted funds.
The Charity had planned for a four-year deh.cit strategy on unrestricted funds. approved by the
Trustees to enable Mountview to capacity build and embed its new bUS￿ne$S model in its nev4
premises. Whilst the first phase of the Covid-19 pandemic redLJced operating costs. resultlllg in a
5urplu5 on Ljnrestricted funds in 2019120. the thnancial years 2020121 and 2021122 saw 5ignifficantly
incieased costs requI￿d to operate in è Covid-secure environment. However, 2022123 has seen a
return to surplus unrestricted lunds resulting in a positive balance of £112.684 on unrestricted funds
t the end ol the year.

EXPLAMATION AS TO WHAT EXTEIIT THE AUOIT WAS CONSIDERED CAPABLE OF i￿TEcTING
IRREGULARITIES, INCLUDING FRAUO
Irregularities. including fraud. are instance5 of non-eornpliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities. outlined above. to detect material misstatements In
respect of ¢rregularities, Including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting
irre9ularities, including fraud Is detailed below_
The objectives of our audit in respect ol fraud. are." to identify and assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial 5tatement5 due to fraud,. to obtain sufficient appropriate audit
evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud. through designing and
Implementing appiopriate responses to those assessed iisk5.' and to respond appropriately to inslances
of fraud or suspected fravd identified during the audit. However. the primary responsibility lor the
prevention and detection of fraud rests wilh both management and those charged with governance of
the charitable company.
Our approach was as lollow5'.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the
charitable company and considered that the most significant are Ithe Companies Act 2(￿. the
Charilie5 Act 2011. the Charity SORP, and UK financial reporting slandards a5 issued by the Financial
Reporting Councill
We obtained an understanding of how the chariiable company complies with these requiiements by
discussions with m3nagernent ènd those charged with 9overnance.
We assessed the risk ol material misstatement of the financial statements, including the risk
of material misstatement due to fraud and how it mi9ht occur. by holding discussions with
management and those charged with governance.
We inquired of mbnagement and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non-
compliance or suspected non-complianee with laws and regulations.
Based on thi5 understanding. we designed specific appropriate audit procedures to identify
instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. This Included making enquiries of
management and those charged with governance and obtairting additional corroborative evidence
as required.
25

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become
aware of Instances of non-compliance with laws and regulaiions that are not closely related to events
nd transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also. the risk of not detecting a materièl
misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error. as fraud may
involve deliberate concealment by. for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through
collusion.
