Dear Zoe, Mark and Lucy
Independent examinaton for the year ended 31st August 2023
Nature and scope of the examinaton
I have been asked by you, as a trustee of a Chalford Hill Primary School Parents and Teachers Association, to examine the financial position and the related statement of activities for the years ended August 2023. The objective of the examination is to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a report that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an independent examination will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
In accordance with the Ethical Standards imposed upon me, I must ensure that my independence is always maintained to enable me to form an objective opinion on the truth and fairness of the unaudited summary report. This examination includes an assessment of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the association’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed, and to comment on the overall presentation of the financial report.
Opinion on fnancial statements
In my opinion the treasurer’s report:
give a true and fair view of the state of the association's affairs as at 31 August 2023 and of its surplus for the year then ended; and
have been properly prepared in accordance with a cash accounting basis.
The overall presentation of the financial report is clear and legible and suitable for the requirements of the Association and for audit purposes.
Yours faithfully
Michael Seymour Accountant mjseymour40@hotmail.com
Appendix 1 – Outcome of my work in the key areas of examination focus
| Risk | Work undertaken | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Incoming resources A signifcant proporton of income is made up of cash taken at various fundraising events, which is paid into the bank mainly through cash deposits or via Stripe/Sum Up. |
I checked the amounts paid into the bank account matched those recorded as income on the fnancial statements for year ended 31 August 2023. |
The income matched that recorded on the bank statement. It is difcult to test whether this accounted for all the income because I have litle knowledge as to whether all cash receipts have been accounted for. Fund raising actvites included bonfre night, summer fayre, scarecrow trail and a ‘Bugsy in the Barn’ party. No issues arose from the work undertaken and given the level of actvity I am satsfed that the income does refect that of the fund raising actvites and events in the year. |
| Expenditure The expenditure is largely through the bank account using a mixture of cheques and bank transfers. |
I checked that the expense recorded on the fnancial statements for year ended 31 August 2023 matched the money paid out of the bank account. I did check the largest invoices and receipts which were paid matched those on the bank account and report. |
The expenses on the bank account did match those recorded on the fnancial statement. I asked for receipts for a selecton of the largest payments, these were provided and corresponded to the events in the year. There is inherently some risk surrounding cash foats/expenses at events, but I am satsfed that sufcient processes are in place to ensure that these risks are kept to a minimum. |
| Risk | Work undertaken | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Financial statements | I checked the year end balance on the excel report reconciled to the balance on the fnancial statements for year ended 31 August 2023. |
I am satsfed that the year end downloaded statements match the fnancial statements and the opening and closing positons on the accounts are all in agreement. PDF copies of the bank statements support the excel report in both the opening and closingbalances. |
