TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT AND APPROVAL OF ACCOUNTS 

Page 1 

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 

____________________________________________________________________________ 

## Trustees’ Responsibilities for the accounts 

Under the Association Constitution the Trustees are required to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Association and of the surplus or shortfall of income over expenditure for the period.  In preparing the accounts the Trustees should: 

- 

   - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume the Association will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, for safeguarding the assets of the Association and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## Approval of Accounts 

On behalf of the Trustees, we approve the attached accounts on pages 2 to 7 and confirm that all relevant records and information have been made available for their preparation:

## 4. Depreciation 

Depreciation is calculated by the reducing balance method in order to write off the cost of wasting assets over their expected useful lives.  The rate applied is 15% per annum. 

Impairment costs are calculated in order to write off the costs of the lease premium over the lease term.
