l. Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) General inforniation and basis of preparation
Cast Ministries is a charitable trust constituted under a trust deed dated 31" March 1999 which
registered with The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland on 29 September 2016. The address
of the principal office is given in the charity infonnation on page l of these financial statements and
is recognised as a charity.
The principal activity of the trust is the forniation and delivery of personal, social and faith
development programmes for both fornial and informal education contexts. The aim of the trust work
is to equip participants with the life skills necessary to cultivate personal and relational r¢sponsibility
that will enable them to contribute to the well being of their community. The trust works actively to
instigate and promote peace building and is infomied by an inclusive Christian ethos.
The charitablc trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards,
Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities
preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial R¢portino Standard applicable in the UK
and Republic of Ireland issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the
United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008,
Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2013, The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations (Northern
Ireland) 2015 and UK Generally Accepted Practice.
The fInancial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention.
The charity is dependent on continuing donations and gifts and as a consequence the going Concern
basis is also dependent on the continuing donations etc. The financial statements are presented in
sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest pound.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out
below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
(b) Funds
The trust has two types of ￿ndS for which it is responsibl¢. A definition of these funds is as follows:
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general
objectives of th¢ charity which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by
donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and
administering such funds are charged against the specific fund.

l. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(c) Income recognition
Incoming resources, including deferred incoming resources are included in the Statement of
Financial Activities (SOFA) usino the accruals basis when receivable, with the exception of
donations, legacies and bequests which are included in the fInancial statements when received.
For donations to be Tecognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement
date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires 2 lev¢1 of
perfomance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred unttl those conditions are
fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable
that they will be fulfilled.
Income from oovernment and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has
entitlement after any perfonnance conditions have been meL it is probable that the income will be
received and the amount can be measured reliably.
If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred. Revenue orants are credited to tncoming
resources on the earlier date of when they are received or when they are receivable, unless they relate
to a specifIed future period. Grants which contribute towards specific expenditure on fixed assets
are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities in full upon receipt.
Grants in respect of capital expenditure are treated as deferred income and are credited to the
statement of financial activities over the estimated use￿1 life of the assets to which they relate.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer tim¢ in line with the SORP (FRS
102). Further detail is given in the Trustees, Annual Report.
Where practicable, gifts in kind donated for distribution to th¢ beneficiaries of the charity are
included in stock and donations in the financial statements upon receipt. If it is impracticable to
assess the fair value at receipt or if the costs to undertake such a valuation outweigh any benefits,
then the fair value is recognised as a component of donations when it is distributed and an equivalent
amount recognised as charitable expenditure.
Voluntary income is received by way of donations and gift are included in the SOFA when received.
Investment income is interest earned through holding cash at bank. Interest income is recotrnised
when receivable.
Other income represents income that cannot be reported under the other analysis headings provided
within the SOFA.

Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(d) Expenditure recognition
All ¢xpenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been ¢lassifi¢d under headings that
a(F(vreoate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or
constructive obliiyation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be
required and the amount of the obli(yation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under
Expenditure on charitable activities includes direct costs (for example salary costs and
establishment) and allocation of support costs (for example governance costs)
The charity is not registered for VAT, therefore expenditure is shown inclusive of VAT.
(e) Support costs - alloc2tion
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable
activities and include office costs and governance costs.
They arc incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Where support
costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to expenditure on
charitsble activities on a basis consistent with us¢ of the resources (see note 6)-
Fund-raisino costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs
of disseminatin(y infonnation in support of the charitable activities.
(fj Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impainnent
losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset Capable of operating as intended.
Depreciation is provided on all tanoible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cosL less
estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected usefuK life as follows=

l. Summary of significant aceounting policies {¢ontinued)
(g) Impairnient
Assets not measured at fair value are review¢d for any indication that the asset tnay be impaired at
each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asse( or the asset's
cash generatinu unit, is estimated and compared to the canying amount. Where the canying
amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impainnent loss is recognised in profit or loss.
(h) Provisions
Provisions are re¢oonised when the charity has an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of
a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required in settlement and
the amount can be reliably estimated.
(i) Employee benefits
When employees have rendered service to the charity, short-temi employee benefits to which the
employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange
for that service.
(i) Tax
As a charity, the company benefIts from various exemptions afforded by tax leoislation. It is
therefore not liable to CO￿OratIon tax on income or gains falling due within those exemptions.
(k) Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a goin(F concern basis as the trustees believe that
no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered th¢ level of funds held and the
expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial
statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the
charity to be able to continue as a goiniT concern.
O) Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following judgements including those involving estimates hav¢ been made in the process of
applyinu the above accountino
policies that have had the most significant effect on the amounts
reco.(mised in the financial statements and that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the canying amounts of ass¢ts and liabilities within the next financial year-
Depreciation method and asset useful lives
Th¢ estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoinfj basis considering the current and future
market conditions.
