Accounting Policies** Set out below are the principal accounting policies which have been adopted in the compilation of the receipts and payments account and the statement of assets and liabilities: ## **(a) Receipts and payments account** All items of income and expenditure included within the receipts and payments account have been accounted for on a cash receipts basis. ## **(b) Statement of assets and liabilities** ## **(i)** _**Assets retained for the Parish’s own use**_ The assets of the Parish, retained for its own use comprise: - Church Building and Graveyard - Parochial Hall - Rectory - Fixtures and fittings The Church Building and Graveyard are deemed to be Heritage assets as defined by the Charities SORP (FRS102). These Heritage assets are not included in the statement of assets and liabilities as information on the cost or valuation is not available and such information cannot be obtained at a cost commensurate with the benefit to the users of the accounts and to the Parish. The Parochial Hall was built in the early 1900s. There are no records of the cost of this construction. The hall was extended in 1988/9 at a cost of £86K and in 1997/8 a new kitchen was added at a cost of £44K. A valuation approach for such a building lacks sufficient reliability. As a result, this building is not recognised in the Parish statement of assets and liabilities. The Rectory was purchased in 2000 at a cost of £165K and is recognised at cost in the statement of assets and liabilities. The Rectory is owned by Annahilt Parish and vested in the Representative Church Body (RCB) of the Church of Ireland. Running costs for the Rectory are allocated between Annahilt Parish and Magherahamlet Parish on a ⅔ to ⅓ basis respectively. Fixtures, fittings, equipment and the Church organ are all deemed to be heritage assets and are not included in the statement of assets and liabilities Given their age, the value of fixtures and fittings in the Parochial Hall and the Rectory is deemed to be £Nil. ## **(ii)** _**Investments**_ Investments in Representative Church Body (RCB) and Church of Ireland Trustees (CIT) Unit Trusts are initially recorded at cost and are then subsequently stated at fair value at each year end date. Investments were generally made between 1982 and 2012. The total of the initial investments over this period was approximately £12,400. All dividend income from our investments is for the general use of the Parish. 10 _Registered as a Charity with The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland NIC103246_ ## **Annahilt Parish Church Registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland as** **Hillsborough/Annahilt & Magherahamlet/The Church Of The Ascension, Annahilt/Down & Dromore/Church Of Ireland** ## **2.
