Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Lisburn Commerce Against Crime is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in Northern Ireland . In the event of the charity being wound up, every member of the company undertakes to contribute such amount as may be required not exceeding £ 1 to the company's assets if it should be wound up while he or she is a member or within one year after he or she ceases to be a member for payment of debts and liabilities of the company.
The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 2 of these financial statements.
The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities include operating of a CCTV monitoring system and a Radio link service.
The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation for financial statements under FRS 102 requires estimates and assumptions to be made that affect both the value at which certain assets and liabilities are held at the balance sheet date and the amounts of revenue and expenditure recorded in the period. The directors believe the accounting policies chosen are appropriate to the particular circumstances and that the estimates, judgements and assumptions involved in the preparation of the financial statements are reasonable.
Accounting estimates made by management are based on information available to management at the time each estimate is made. Accordingly, actual outcomes may differ materially from current expectations. The estimates for which there is a significant risk of material adjustment to the financial statements are as follows:
Depreciation
The directors exercise judgement of the useful economic lives and residual values of all classes of fixed assets. Theses assets are then depreciated over their useful economic lives to their residual values.
Provision for doubtful debt
The directors review the recovery of trade debtors on a continuous basis for any indications of impairment. If such conditions are apparent and it is unlikely, due to deteriorated creditworthiness that the debt will be paid whether wholly or in part, a provision will be made.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES ‐ continued
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognized as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery ‐ 10% on cost
The accounting estimate for depreciation has been changed in the period from 20% on cost to 10% on cost.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Pension costs and other post‐retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
2. NET INCOME/(EXPENDITURE)
Net income/(expenditure) is stated after charging/(crediting):

11. FRC ETHICAL STANDARD ‐ PROVISIONS AVAILABLE FOR SMALL ENTITIES
In common with many other businesses of our size and nature we use our auditors to prepare and submit returns to the tax authorities and assist with the preparation of the financial statements.
12. GOING CONCERN
The company incurred a loss in the sum of £33,395 for the year ended 31 March 2022 and had net assets in the sum of £373,280. The company is heavily dependent upon funding from Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council, at the date of signing this report funding for the next financial year has not been confirmed. The company does not have sufficient cash reserves to continue for 12 months should the funding not be secured.
The directors are looking into keeping costs to an absolute minimum, looking at alternative sources of funding and are currently in discussions with the Council to get confirmation on the funding for the financial year ahead. The directors have assessed a period of 12 months from the date of approving the financial statements with regard to the appropriateness of the going concern assumption in preparing the financial statements. The directors believe that the company will be in a position to continue operations once the funding has been put in place and the directors have formed the view that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. Without confirmation of essential funding, however, the circumstances represent a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amount or classification of assets and liabilities that would result if the company was unable to continue as a going concern.
