Stock Exchange Rifle Club Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2022 

## **Notes forming part of the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022** 

## **1 Accounting Policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

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 (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014, and with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and with the Charities Act 2011. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for the valuation of investment assets, which are shown at market value. 

## **Recognition of income** 

Income is included in the Income and expenditure account when: 

- the charity becomes entitled to the resources 

- it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and 

- the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## **Income from interest, royalties and dividends** 

This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. 

## **Income from membership subscriptions** 

Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. 

## **Investment gains and losses** 

This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 

## **Tangible fixed assets for use by charity** 

These are initially valued at cost and subsequently depreciated using the rates and methods disclosed in note 8. 

## **Investments** 

Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the value of cash or other consideration expected to be received. 

## **Creditors** 

The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts.

## **4 Income from Rifle and Revolver Club** 

This income is from the Rifle & Revolver Club which held the lease of St Alphage House.  The Rifle & Revolver Club is a charitable trust and has the Stock Exchange Rifle Club as its only beneficiary.  As the lease of St Alphage House is no longer held, the trustees of the Rifle & Revolver Club decided to distribute income from its funds to the Stock Exchange Rifle Club.

The income from the Inglis Fund is used to pay the costs of affiliation with the LMRA. 

The Hoskier Rifle was founded at the commencement of the club by the relatives and friends of the late Frank Harold Hoskier, a member of the 3rd Middlesex Artillery Volunteers, who was killed in action near Stormberg South Africa on 23rd February 1900. A fund was established to purchase a rifle for the annual winner of the competition. As of today the rule is that you must use the cash to purchase rifle equipment. No claims have been made on the Hoskier Rifle Fund for several years. 

The Paul/Tucker Prize Fund was established by Chris Paul and Hamish Tucker to assist younger shooters and to ensure that SERC members recognised the club on their entries to the the Imperial Meeting.

Re ort of the Inde
endent Examiner to the
Trustees of the St¢)ck Exchan
e Rffle Club
I report on the accounts of the above charitable trust for the yèar ended 31 March

Respective responslbilities of trustees and axaminer
The charity s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The
charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144
of Ihe Charities Act 2011 {'the Charities Act.) and that an independent examination is
needed.
11 is my responsibility to-
a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act
b) to follow the pr¢xedures laid down in the general Directions giv8n by the
Commission under section 14515Mb) of the Charities Act. and
c) to stale whether particular matters have com8 to my attention.
Basis of Independent oxaminerfs report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by
the Charity Commission. An examination includes a revièw 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 or disclosures in the
accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees conceming any such matters.
Th8 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 fairf view. and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement
below.
Indopondent examlnorfs Statement
In connection with my examination. no other matter has come lo my attention.. .
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that. in any material respect, the
requirements..
a) lo keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities
Act and
b) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply
with the accounting requirements of the Charits'es Act. have not be8n met,.
