Drumkeeran Parish Church Notes to the Financial Statements Iconlinue Year ended 31 December 2024 Accounting policies (contlnuedj Tangible assets The Church Building and Graveyard are deemed to Herttage assets as defined by the Charities SORP (FRS102). These Heritage assets are not included on the Statement of Financial Position as information on the cost or valuation 15 not available and such infomiation Gannot be obtained at a cost c(xnmensurate with the benefrt to the users of the accounts and to the Parish. The Church Hall is considered to be attached to the Church and as such is not separable as an individual asset. As such tt is deemed to be a Heritage asset and no value is ascribed to it in the Statement of financial Position. The Rectory and adjoining field have been recognised at market value due to the difficulties in establishing actual cost. The market value has been determined by the trustees. No depreciation has been attributed to the Rectory as the remaining useful lrfe currently exceeds 50 years. The Building at Dernasesk is also deemed to be a Heritage asset as defined by the Charities SORP (FRS102)and as such is not included on the Statement of Financial Position. Depreciation Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less tts residual value, over the useful economic lrfe of that asset as folbws.. Equipment 20% reducing balan Investments Unlisted equty investments are inibally recorded at cost, and subsequently measured at fair value. If fair value cannot be reliably measured, assets are measured at cost less impairment. Listed investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value being recognised in income or expenditure. Impaimient of r￿ed assets A review for indicators of impaiment is carried out at each reporting dale, with the recoverable amount being estimated v4here such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired a¢¢ordingty. Prior impaimients are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reF>Orting date. For the purposes of impaimient testing. when li is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash- generating unit to which the asset belongs. The ¢ash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash irffloy￿ from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is. from the acquisition date. allocated to each of the caslFgenerating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charty are assigned to those units. 10
