Carrickfergus Community Forum Company Llmited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Slatements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2023 Accountlng pollcles (continued) Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that assel as follows: Fixtures and Equipment 15Vo reducing balance Impairment of fixed assets A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date. with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicalors 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 date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not pjssible to eslimale the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of Ihe cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the sma118St identiliable group of assets Ihat includes the asset and generates oash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition clale, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies ol the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned lo those units. Govemment grants Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the charity will comply with the condilions attaching to them and the granls will be received. Where the grant does not impose specrfied fLrture performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Where Ihe grant does imFY)se specified fulure performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is recognised in income only when the perfomiance-related conditions have been met. Where grants received are prior to salisfying the revenue recognition criteria. they are recognised as a Financial instruments A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs. Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted. Debt instruments are subs8quently measured at amortised cost. 12-
Carrickfergus Community Forum Company Limited by Guarantee Notes to the Financial Statements (contimRd) Year ended 31 March 2023 Accounting policles (continued) Financial instrurnents (contlnuéd) 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 al cost less impairment. Other financial instruments. including dertvatives, are inilially recognised at fair value. unless paymerrt lor an asset is deferred beyond normal business temis or financed at a rate of interest that is not a rnarket rate. in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the stalement of financial activities. wilh the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship. Financial assels that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impaiment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairm8nt, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriale heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised. For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant. these are assess8d individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on Ihe basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
