Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as 8 whole are free frcxn material misslalemenl, whelhef due lo fraud or error. and to issue an auditor's report that ineludes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuran￿, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always delecl a material misstalemenl when il exists. Misslalements can arise frorn fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial slalemenls. Irregularities, including fraud, are in5t8nces of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design Pro￿dureS in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, lo delect material misslalements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent lo which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detaikd below.. In identifying and assessing risks ol material misstalemenl in respect of irregularities. including fraud and non£ompliance with laws and regulations, we considered the following.. the natu￿ of the industry and sector, control environment and business performance including the design of the remuneration policies. key drivers for directors, remuneration. bonus levels and performance targets., resulis of our enquiries of management about their own idenlifKation and assessment of the risks of irregularities., any mattets we identified having obtained and reviewed documentation of their policies and prO￿dureS relating to". identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations and whether management were aware of any instances of non-compliance., detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether management have knowledge of any actual. suspected or alleged fraud." the internal controls established lo milKJale risks of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. the matters discussed among the audit engagement team including significant component audit teams and relevant internal specialists, including lax and valuations specialists regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial slalements and any potential indicators of fraud. As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incenlwes that may exist within the organisalion for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud. In common with all audits under ISAS (UKI, we are also required to perfom specrfic proCedU￿S to respond to the risk of management override. We also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks in operation, fctusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amoLTrnts and disclosures in the fin8ncial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included ongoing compliance with the UK Companies Act and tax legislation. In addition, we ¢onsicSered provisitins of othef laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial slalemenls bul compliance with which may be fundamental for their ability lo operate or to avoid a material penalty. 12

Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value Can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers. income from contracts for the suppty of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unroslricted funds unless there is a conlraclual requirement for il lo be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case il may be regarded as reslri¢led.

West Belfast Development Trust Limited Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements {continuedJ Year ended 30 June 2022 Accounting policios (cantinued) Tangible assets {¢ontlnu8d) An increase in the earrying 8mount of an asset as a result of a revaluation. is recognised in other recognised gains and losses. unless il reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activrties. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result ol revaluation, is recogni5ed in other recognised gains and losses, except lo which il offsets any previous Tevalualion gain, in which case the loss is shown wthin other iecognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activrties. Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the c05t or valuation of an a5sel. less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows.. Long leasehold property Fixturgs and fittings Equipment Varying rates depending on asset types Over 10 years Varying rates depending on asset types Srnpairment of fixed assets A review for indicators of impaiiment is carried out al each reporting dale. with the recoverable amount being estimated Whe￿ such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal al each reporting dale. For the purposes of impairment testing. when il is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset. an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the Cash-generaling unil to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unil is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of Ihe cash inflows from other assets 01 groups of assets. For impaiment lesling of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date. allocated lo each of the Cash-generaling units that are expected lo benefit from the synergies of the cornbination. irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned lo those units. Flnanclal Instruments A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party lo the contractual provisions of the instrument. Bas￿ financial instruments are initially recognised al the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs. Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other eonsideratlon expected to be pald or received and not di5¢0unted. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost. 20

West Belfast Development Trust Limited Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements (conlinued) Year ended 30 June 2022 Accounting policies (confinued) Financial instruments (conunued) Where investments in shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment Is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment. Other financial inslrumenls, including derwatives. are initially recognised al fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business letms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate. in which case the asset is measured at Ihe present value of the future payments discounled al a market rale of interest for a similar debt instrument. Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities. with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. Financial assets that are measured al cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment al the end of each reporting date. If there is objective eviden￿ of impainnenl, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised. For all equity instruments regardless of signrficance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed Individual￿ for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics. Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the exienl that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised. Defined contrlbution plans Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related serwce is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the e*£enl that the prepayment will lead lo a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. Vvhen contributions are not expected to be settled wholly wthin 12 rmnlhs of the end of the reporting dale in which the employees render the related service. the liability is measured on a discounted present value basi5. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises. Limited by guarantse The Charty is a eompany limi(ed by guarantee and has no share capital.
