MARSDEN MEMORIAL HOMES **Year ended 31 March 2024** SECTION 3 ~~—~~ Statement of Trustee’s Responsibilities 

## Statement of T rustee’s Responsibilities 

statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales and registered social housing legislation requires the Trustee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustee is required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. 

- observe the methods and principles in the Statement of Recommended Practice for registered housing providers: Housing SORP 2018. 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements. 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 and the Accounting Direction for private registered providers of social housing in England 2022. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

MARSDEN MEMORIAL HOMES **Year ended 31 March 2024** SECTION 4 ~~—~~ Independent Examiner’s Report 

## Independent E xaminer’s Report to the Trustee of Marsden Memorial Homes, Farsley 

I report to the trustee on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024 which are set out on pages 7 to 15. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

of the Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the Financial Statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has since been withdrawn. 

We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that, in any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **2. Accounting policies** 

The Financial Statements are in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards. 

## **Basis of accounting and statement of compliance** 

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (UKGAAP) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS102) and the Housing SORP 2018: Statement of Recommended Practice for Registered Social Housing Providers and comply with the Accounting Direction for Private Registered Providers of Social Housing 2022. 

The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis of accounting except as modified by the revaluation of investments and are presented in Sterling (£).

MARSDEN MEMORIAL HOMES **Year ended 31 March 2024** 

SECTION 7 Notes to the Financial Statements 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Housing Properties Social Housing Grant** 

Government grants include grants receivable from Homes England, local authorities, and other government organisations. Government grants received for housing properties are recognised in income over the useful life of the housing property structure under the accruals model. 

Grants due from government organisations or received in advance are included as current assets or liabilities. 

Government grants received for housing properties are subordinated to the repayment of loans by agreement with Homes England. Government grants released on sale of a property may be repayable but are normally available to be recycled and are credited to a Recycled Capital Grant Fund and included in the statement of financial position in creditors. 

If there is no requirement to recycle or repay the grant on disposal of the asset, any unamortised grant remaining within creditors is released and recognised as income in income and expenditure. 

## **Depreciation** 

Marsden Memorial Homes were constructed in 1935. There is no record of the original cost, and no value is attributed thereto. The Housing Properties costs relate to improvements conducted since 1990 which were funded by Government Grant, a mortgage loan from Orchardbrook Ltd secured by a charge on housing, land and buildings, and from Marsden Memorial Homes own resources. 

## **Component Accounting** 

The SORP requires registered Housing Associations to apply the rules relating to component accounting. The original value of the improvements as transferred into management in 2012 is assumed to be structural. Further assets were added in 2012/13 and to date. 

The Trustees depreciate the components of the housing properties at the following annual rates: 

|Bathrooms|30 Years (3.3%)|
|---|---|
|Boilers|15 Years (6.7%)|
|Heating & Plumbing|30 Years (3.3%)|
|Electrics|40 Years (2.5%)|
|Kitchen|20 Years (5.0%)|
|Roof|70 Years (1.4%)|
|Structure|100 Years (1.0%)|
|Windows and doors|30 Years (3.3%)|
|Lifts|20 Years (5.0%)|

SECTION 7 Notes to the Financial Statements 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **Investments** 

Investments are carried at market value. Investments held for the long-term are included in fixed assets. Investments held as part of the short-term treasury management are included in current assets. 

## **Value Added Tax** 

Marsden Memorial Homes, Farsley is not registered for Value Added Tax. In these Financial Statements, where applicable, expenditure is shown inclusive of VAT. 

## **Significant judgements and estimates** 

Preparation of the financial statements requires management to make significant judgements and estimates. The items in the financial statements where these judgements and estimates have been made include: 

## Estimation uncertainty 

Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses is provided below. Actual results may be substantially different. 

## Useful lives of depreciable assets 

The Trustee reviews the estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected economic life of the assets. Accumulated depreciation as at 31 March 2024 was £60,677 (2023 £55,417). 

## **Fair value measurements** 

The Trustee uses valuation techniques to determine the fair value of financial instruments and non-financial assets. 

## Financial instruments 

Financial instruments which meet the criteria of a basic financial instrument as defined in Section 11 of FRS102 are accounted for under an amortised cost model. 

## Debtors 

Trade debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. 

## Creditors 

Trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank, local authority, and other loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
