Accounting policies (continued)
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of finanGial activities when èntitlernent has passed to
the charity. It is probable that the economic benefils associated with the transaciion will flow to the charity
and the amount can be reliably measured. The fo15owing specific policles are 8pplied to particular
categories of income:
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt
is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entidement is established.
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods un18SS this is impractical to
measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the clonor or the estimated resale
value. Donated facilities and ser41ces are recognised in the accounts when received If the value can bè
reliably measL5red. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
incorne from Gontracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of Ihe contracted
Service. This is Glasslfied as unrestrlcled funds unless Ihere Is a Gontraclual requlrement for it to be
spenl on a partiGular purpose and retumed if unspent, in which Gas8 It may be regarded as restricted.
ResourGes expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accnjals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT
which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to
which it relales:
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising aclivities, events, non-charitable
trading adivities. and the sale of donated goods.
expendilure on charitable activities includes all costs Incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that
further Its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries. including those support cosis and costs
relating to the governance of Ihe charity apportioned to charitable activitles.
other expendlture includes all expenditure that Is neither related to ralslng funds for the Gharlty nor part
of its expenditure on chariiable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct Gosts 8ttributable
to a single activity are allocated dlrectly to that aclivty. Shared costs are apportioned be￿een the activitles
they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent bas1S.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost. and subsequently stated at cost less any acGumuEated
depreciation and impaimient losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the

acGumulaled impairment losses.

Accounting policie8 Icontlnued)
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a resLJIt of a revaluation, is recognised in other
recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been
recognised as expenditure wtthin the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of
an asset as a result of revaluation. is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it
offsels any previous revaluation gain, in which case the k)ss is shown within other recognised gains and
losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreclatlon
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cosl or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over
the useful economiG life of Ihat assel as follows:
Freehold propety
Fixtures and fittings
Impalmient of flxed assets
40Vo straight line
400/0 slraighl line
A review for indicators of Impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount
being estimated where such indicators exist. Where Ihe carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount,
the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible revers81 at each
reporting dale,
For the purpos8s of impairment testlng, when It Is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an
indlvidual asset, an estimate is made of the reGoverable amount of the cash-generating unil lo which the
asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets thal includes the asset
and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of
assets,
For Impaimienl testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combinalion is, from the acquisition
date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the
combination, irrespective of whelher other assets or labilities of the charity are assigned lo those units.
Defined contributlon plans
Contributions to deflned contribution plans are recognlsed as an expense in the perfod in whlch the related
service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recogni5ed as an a5sel lo Ihe exlent that the prepayment will
lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date
in which the employee5 render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value
basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.

the charity being wound up, the liability in r8speGt of the guaranlee is limited to £1 per member of the
